The new one I put in my Airstream took the place of the old one. There are no noticeable differences between the 9500 and this one.
A broken bracket held the filter, so I had to get in touch with Moen to learn how to fix it. Turn off the water at the source under the sink so that no water pressure is present (3) open the faucet valve in order to release any residual pressure and allow excess water to drain out. (2) Twist the old filter to unlock it, then remove (2) Go to Lowe's or Home Depot and buy some faucet lube. You must make sure it's for drinking faucets only. (3) Spread the oil on the surface Rings at the head of the filter that have been lubricated. Lock the filter into place by inserting it tightly into the bracket and twisting it out. Then, once I got it right, it was a doddle--I did it in less than five minutes Simple as that".

The Moen System S5500 I purchased in late spring 2016 was a very good buy. As I have mentioned in my previous review, I have to replace the filter for the first time. Since my Moen system and faucets were installed by a professional, the first time I needed to do this was when I changed the filter. It took me a while to get the filter off moved a flat head screwdriver between the filter top and the bracket while prying it off with a flat head screwdriver. Even after spending an absurd amount of time trying, I was not able to get the replacement on. The filter that came with the system worked fine after I put it back on. There has to be a manufacturing issue with the Made in China filters, because other reviewers have complained about the same issue with replacements. The Moen customer service department sent a replacement after I called. It will also not go all the way on. We installed the original filter that came with the system in its place and removed the replacement filter. It took me a lot of frustration to remove the beverage faucet and disconnect the beverage supply lines. Basically, flip it upside down and force it inside hard. Of course, you can't get much leverage when it is all connected to the mounting bracket, so to get the filter to fit, you have to flip it upside down while squeezing it in pretty hard. When I moved into my last house, I had a Moen AquaSuite water filter system that used the 9001 filter. When I was in the bracket, I was able to put that on and off very easily. It appears to be a much better design. It's hard to imagine life without an old system like that. The water in my house is filtered. I am a one-person household with pets and everyone has access to filtered As I observed a large number of floating particles in the filter after six months, it seemed that it was no longer effective. My expectation would be that I would not be able to get much more than six months of time out of it.
There is no guesswork involved. It's easy to compare prices through Amazon This is a much better plumbing supply store than the local one. It was made by the original manufacturer -the real thing I don't want to knock on your door I'm out. In my experience, it is not always easy to follow the instructions when installing. If there is a lot of internal pressure in the filter, it is best to shut off the water supply to the filter, and then open the drain. You can get rid of the old one by rotating it. Use silicone lube that is certified to be safe for drinking water to rib over the water container. Installation of the new unit follows the removal of the old It is easy to enter. My experience has been that if you follow the instructions and leave the pressure on the system, it is nearly impossible to remove and reinstall the unit. Be sure that no pressure is being applied to In order to prevent leaks, the device locks into its cradle under pressure. This makes it impossible for it to be removed easily.
Fitting it was no problem for me. It is difficult to remove them, you have to wiggle them up and down while the faucet is It is the replacement I used FIRST and THEN it was the original which came with the faucet kit SECOND due to people saying it wasn't the same. Each one was compared before installation, and both were As a result of the vacuum formed, it's difficult to remove any. Additionally, installing the software can be problematic, as you need to recreate a vacuum and then turn it on. If I'm going to use that faucet, the water should be turned off at the faucet. Once you remove it from the bracket, there is some water spilt.
If one follows the steps on the refrigerator, it should be easy to install. My moen drinking water spout uses this filter, so the one that comes with it must be used, however it is DEEPLY inconvenient to take out the used one and replace it with This has been too difficult for me to accomplish on my own, and my son-or my husband-have had to do it Try to pry out the old one with the help of your father-in-law or friend, and then try to replace it - it will take about half an hour. It should be easy to do like on the refrigerators, but it's really hard to figure out how to do it. We are now on our third, and no one has gone in easily. I love water. I find it useful and it tastes great The only thing Moen needs to do is to make an easier model to install and remove.
The majority of the reviews I read before ordering this filter made me aware that there was an issue attempting to install it As I was unable to find it anywhere else, I decided to give it a go. We were very happy with the delivery and the price was reasonable. In order to install the line, I turned off the water and bled it. The new filter did not install properly and it was hard to get it to lock. There is something so tight about it that it will not stay in place. Attempting to pivot, turn, and jam the mount to the point of knocking it off the side of the cabinet caused me to knock the mount off. Then, once my nerves had settled and I was in a state of composure, I got back to work. I came up with the following solution. Put the cartridge into position by pulling the mount out of the cabinet, turning it sideways, and pushing it into place. The side of the cabinet can be used as a backstop while you gain leverage and force the item into position. In order to lock in the filter, turn it slightly after it is The bracket should be reinstalled on the wall of the cabinet. The Moen filter and bracket need to be verified as to whether they meet their manufacturing specs. A strange thing is going on. In the second installation of the filter, I made a build a short wooden bracket for mounting the bracket and made the same thing I did on the first. It is easy to push the filter in the mount, screw the whole assembly inside the cabinet, and then to remove the filter. Rather than sticking the mounting holes inside of the cartridge, Moen should make them outside.
I noticed the filter was damaged, but it appears that the damage was caused by dry rot (I had no idea In this case, the plastic support holding a crucial O ring in place literally collapsed when the box I picked up the pieces of the filtration system and saw that they had crumbled to dust. I understand this water filter system is old, but filters of this age ought not to Whether it was a defective or expired product, the product was shipped to the customer in very poor condition.
