Verdict
Pros & cons
Die iSpring RCC7AKUV ist eine Untertisch-Osmoseanlage mit 12-l-Tank und Systemzertifikat nach NSF/ANSI 58, die Blei, Fluorid und Nitrat gründlich zurückhält. Sie passt zu Haushalten mit Platz im Spülenschrank, die günstige Standardfilter schätzen und den Einbau selbst angehen. Der Haken: Bei gechlortem Stadtwasser kann die UV-Stufe süßlichen Geruch verursachen, dazu kommen rund 2 l Abwasser je Liter.
Pros
- Blei, Arsen und Uran im Labor um 100 % gesenkt, Fluorid um 99 %
- Systemzertifikat nach NSF/ANSI 58 für 97,9 % weniger gelöste Salze
- Vorfilter in Standardmaß, auch von anderen Herstellern erhältlich
- Mit rund 2 l Abwasser je Liter sparsam für eine Tankanlage ohne Pumpe
- Mechanischer Leckageschutz sperrt den Zulauf bei Nässe
- Ersatzteile vom Kundendienst kommen schnell und oft kostenlos
Cons
- UV-Stufe verursacht bei gechlortem Stadtwasser teils süßlichen Geruch
- Mineralfilter gab im Labor Spuren von Arsen und Vanadium ab
- Undichtigkeiten an Steckverbindern und Winkelstücken kommen wiederholt vor
- Für den US-Markt gebaut: UV-Vorschaltgerät auf 110 V, Anschlüsse in Zoll
- Filterwechsel nur mit Schlüssel, ohne Wechselanzeige
Die OsmoFresh Fusion Air ist ein Auftischgerät ohne Installation, das Leitungswasser zuverlässig weich und mild filtert. Für Singles und Paare in Mietwohnung oder Büro taugt sie gut, auch für Tee per Flex-Taste. Der Haken: Statt 95 °C kommen meist nur rund 80 °C an, vorher läuft kühles Wasser nach. Dazu muss der 4,7-l-Tank jedes Mal ganz geleert werden, und die Herstellerkartuschen sind teuer.
Pros
- Weiches, remineralisiertes Wasser mit 2,5 °dH, Kalkränder im Wasserkocher bleiben aus
- Keine Installation nötig, nach rund 20 Minuten startklar
- Flex-Taste mit 40 bis 90 °C in 5-Grad-Schritten für Tee
- Abwasserverhältnis 2:1, halb so viel Abwasser wie beim Vorgänger
- Werkzeugloser Filterwechsel in etwa 5 Minuten mit Wechselanzeige
- UV-C-LEDs in Innentank und Auslass, Standby unter 0,5 W
Cons
- Heißwasser kommt mit rund 80 °C statt 95 °C an, erst nach 5 s Vorlauf
- Tank muss nach etwa 2 l jedes Mal komplett geleert und neu befüllt werden
- Nach Heißwasser läuft an ungesperrter Taste kurz heißes Wasser nach
- Nur teure Herstellerkartuschen, Standardfilter passen nicht
- Tankdeckel und Haken verklemmen leicht, Anschlüsse tropfen beim Tragen
