I had installed Pelican about 6 years ago and it works perfectly, I use to change my refrigerator water filter every 4 months because it would clog with settlement. After it was installed, I never had to change it again.

Now for the bad news, the company itself was going through some changes and were becoming unreliable and were overcharging for their maintenance service.

The good news was I was approached by a service man who no longer worked for the company who drains the tanks and changes the filter twice a year and the UV light once a year which is on a timer. The cost $300 a year less than the company was charging, and I have clean water throughout the house. You can learn how to maintain it yourself, but at my age I'd rather let someone take care of it. Also, the refrigerator filters were about $60 a pop so if you deduct that amount from the $300, I'm only paying $120 for the yearly service.
