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 Quella Pro ist ein Auftischgerät, das ohne Installation sehr weiches, neutral schmeckendes Wasser liefert und es per Durchlauferhitzer in 6 Stufen erhitzt. Sie passt zu Mietwohnungen mit ein bis drei Personen. Der Haken: Jede Tankfüllung ergibt nur 1,7 l, du füllst also mehrmals täglich nach, und die 100-°C-Taste bringt nur 80 bis 91 °C.

Pros

  • Sehr weiches Wasser: 1,54 °dH am Auslass bei 22 °dH Leitungswasser
  • Keine Installation nötig, geeignet für Mietwohnung, Büro und Wohnmobil
  • Heißwasser in 6 Stufen, erhitzt nur die gezapfte Menge
  • Kindersicherung sperrt die heißen Stufen bis zum Druck auf die Lock-Taste
  • Werkzeugloser Filterwechsel per Drehkartusche

Cons

  • Nur 1,7 l pro Tankfüllung, bei 3 l täglich mindestens zweimal nachfüllen
  • 100-°C-Taste liefert am Auslass nur 80 bis 91 °C
  • Pumpe brummt hörbar, auch wenn niemand zapft
  • Außentank tropft beim Herausnehmen und neigt zu Algen
  • Filteranzeige zählt Pumpenlaufzeit, meldet bei wenig Nutzung viel zu spät
