Alkaline RO With US-Made Filters

The PH100 is the RO100 with an alkaline remineralization stage added, keeping the US-made filters and 1:1 waste ratio while fixing the flat taste of reverse osmosis water. iSpring lists it as NSF/ANSI 58 certified, but the PH100 is absent from NSF's listing for the company and its product page reproduces the RCC7AK's certification statement, so the reduction numbers here are manufacturer specifications rather than certified values. That is a misattributed certification rather than an absent one, and it is the clearest example in this brand of a claim that looks verified and is not. Like the RO100, it carries no independent coverage of any kind, so there is no second source on anything the manufacturer states. The alkaline cartridge adds a sixth item to the replacement schedule for a $54 premium over the RO100. It is the right choice over the RO100 if flat water bothers you, and the wrong choice over the RCC7AK if the certification matters, since the RCC7AK is genuinely listed.

PROS
  • Alkaline stage remineralizes RO water and improves taste
  • US-made filters and RO membrane
  • 1:1 pure-to-waste ratio for a tanked-style system
  • 1-year warranty with lifetime support
  • Six stages at a mid-range price
CONS
  • iSpring states NSF/ANSI 58 certification, but the model is not in NSF's listing for the company
  • 100 GPD output is lower than the 500 GPD tankless units
  • Traditional under-sink layout uses more cabinet space
  • Alkaline stage adds a cartridge to the replacement schedule
  • Warranty is 1 year and requires registration
  • Municipal water only; well water needs pre-treatment

The iSpring PH100 is a six-stage under-sink reverse osmosis system rated at 100 GPD with a 1:1 pure-to-waste ratio. It runs a PP sediment filter, a carbon KDF (GAC) filter, a carbon block (CTO) filter, a 100 GPD RO membrane, a fine post-carbon filter, and an alkaline remineralization stage that restores minerals and raises pH after the membrane. iSpring notes the filters and membrane are made in the U.S.A.

The alkaline stage is the difference from the RO100, targeting the flat taste of reverse osmosis water. The 1:1 waste ratio keeps efficiency high for a tanked-style under-sink system, and it carries a 1-year warranty with lifetime support.

iSpring states the PH100 is certified to NSF/ANSI 58, but the model does not appear in NSF's listing for the company and the product page carries the RCC7AK's certification statement rather than its own. Reductions here are described from manufacturer specifications. It is intended for municipal tap water.

The US-made 100 GPD pair is the least documented hardware iSpring sells, and the absence is unusually complete. No publication, no channel and no laboratory covers either model in any form, so every specification on these rows rests on iSpring's own account of it. What does exist is a retailer file at Home Depot, and that file carries iSpring's own attribution line on its review bodies, which means the one third-party-looking pool on these products is partly the brand's own. The marketplace pools fall to the brand panel, which is collected overwhelmingly on cartridges.
