Love our Pelican combo

Love our Pelican combo. We have had our Pelican combo for about 2 years. Love the taste of the water. Previously we had to change our water heater elements every year due to all the build up on them but since installing the salt free softener, they continue to work without issue.

Disappointed with System and Service

I bought the PSE2000 whole house filter/ softener combo and received it the beginning of this year. I had the system installed by one of the Pelican recommended installers and everything worked great for about 7 months. Not long ago I started noticing the water turning gray in my tubs and toilets. Carbon from the filter is now consistently flowing into my water pipes unless I bypass the system. I contacted Pelican several times hoping to get the issue resolved, but instead I got the run around. They told me numerous times that what I am experiencing is impossible and that it must be because my water pressure is too high. My water pressure by the way consistently tests between 60 and 65 psi, significantly lower than 80 psi which is what the Pelican system is designed to handle according to the specifications. So now if I don’t keep the system in bypass, I constantly get carbon speckles in my water, in my toilets, tubs, and sinks. As soon as I bypass the system the carbon stops shortly thereafter. Perhaps my experience is somewhat unique, but I paid a lot of money for a system that I now cannot use after only 7 months. It would be great if Pelican would stop giving me the run around and stand behind their product by providing a system or solution that actually works as advertised or refund my money. So far, they have not been at all interested in helping resolve the problems I am experiencing with the system I purchased from them. Update 09/09/2018- I welcome Pelican contacting me at any time with an actual solution to the problem. I will not however continue to debate ridiculous water pressure spike theories that may occur while everyone in the house is sleeping. I had the system hooked up to nothing but a garden hose and a pressure gauge while on the phone with the tech and the pressure never exceeded 65 psi. Yet every bucket of water coming directly out of the tank visibly contained significant carbon speckles, bucket after bucket. The pressure is not the issue, so as I stressed earlier Pelican needs to bring forward a real solution to the problem and stop with the wild middle of the night water pressure spiking conspiracy theories. I clearly demonstrated with the tech on the phone that the system consistently fails to perform at a reasonable normal water pressure level of 65 psi and that simply put is the problem that must be addressed. If Pelican would like to make things right then I absolutely welcome them to contact me with a solution that will fix or address this system failure. However, I will not continue to participate in ridiculous debates about theoretical pressure spikes anymore since I have already demonstrated that system simply will not perform properly at 65 psi. 9/23/18- I did receive a replacement tank from Pelican this week. Hopefully this will take care of the problem. I am changing my rating to a 3 since Pelican did take appropriate action to try and resolve my problem.

Total waste of money and very shady

We were moving to Texas and the home we bought had a well with VERY hard water and sulfur odor issues. Professional well testing was done along with a water analysis. No bacteria - very clean water, but very hard water. I have had a liver transplant and am always aware of food and water safety being a retired RN. We called and explained our challenges and asked for a their professional opinion on what system would solve our concerns. We ended up spending $2600+ on a system and another $1500 for installation by their recommended installer. It fixed the sulfur odor, I'll give it that. The system looks like a drunk monkey installed it, I have included a photo to show how bad the installation looks. None of the lines are level, there is NO shutoff valve so we can't even bypass the system. It is impossible to run 2 faucets at once or the flow drops to a slow trickle - thank goodness it is only my husband and I. I should also mention that the home inspection reveled that the water pressure was on the high side prior to this system being installed. I called today to see if something could be done. The service person had a very kinda "so what" attitude. No solution or suggestions offered, just "to bad".

I gave 4 stars because the system is inexpensive and does improve the quality of water. However, the quality is not as good as the system my brother purchased which was a lot more expensive. I have no regrets with this purchase.

I installed the Iron and Whole House Carbon Filter myself, and had a few questions, and when I called Pelican Support was great. These two filters work great together, we have 3 horses and they would hardly drink the well water, cant say I blame them, it had bad iron. We had to haul water until I completed installation. These Filters work great !

Design flaw

Sleeve not attached to filter. When I took it out of the box it fell on the floor. It leaks like crazy. I called for replacement. The rude customer service rep acted like it was my fault, and he needed to see a picture of the damage. It's hairline crack that won't show up in a photo. Had to buy a new shower head from BB&B Terrible service

Great experience

Great experience! Mr. Barker was very helpful and knew the product very well. He assured me that doing the installation myself was very simple. He was right. I did the complete installation and had no difficulties. The water is wonderful and I am happy I made the decision to go with Pelican. I have had other systems and I shopped extensively for the new system on my new home and Pelican really met our needs.

good but not perfect

The system was easy enough for me to install as I have experience in plumbing. A novis should get professional help. 4 stars as the system only reduces to 48ppm as per my TDS meter thats before the 4&5th filter and adds 59ppm after filer for total output of 107ppm. We are jointly using this Pelican Pro system as drinking and for a Saltwater aquarium and split the output line before stage 4&5 for the "pure" RO, that we mix with ocean salt mix for our aquarium. Was in belief that a RO system removes more than 48ppm. Sparklets water comes in 5 gal bottles to our door at 25ppm. Our Glendale AZ public water at faucet is 841ppm

BEATING MY EXPECTATIONS

First, we knew we wanted a system but after a lot of research, Pelican seemed the best. Salesman, John Lussier really explained how the system worked, from the filter to the saltless soft water, to the end filtration system that has to be changed once a year. A great system. Because of the townhouse we live in did not have enough room for his equipment, we had to install a Tankless Water Heater. John recommended a great electrician, BRIAN CARTER of Larry Carter Electric. His team had to drill through a 4" slab and other unexpected issues but they did it, did not hold up anyone. Much appreciated. BRIAN then recommended a plumber, WAYNE NOLAN of Wayne Nolan Plumbing and Irrigation. The reason I mention this because other than Brian, I couldn't find a plumber that would install an electric Tankless Water. I called many electrical companies and almost gave up. Once the new water heater was installed Wayne's crew, and the electricity was hooked up PELICAN WATER came and installed their system. The installation crew was excellent, They gave good instructions, went totally beyond my expectations and stayed late because of some of the complications of installing the Tankless Water Heater. The Electricians started at 9AM, the plumber at 9:30 and they were done by 4PM, which is when the PELICAN WATER INSTALLERS began. Totally professional excellent work and i'm sorry I do not remember their names (empty hat) but it was a great experience. The electric tanklese water heater works great. The water is wonderful; drinkable out of every faucet and i didn't expect this but it seems like our sinks, toilets bathtubs and showers are staying cleaner longer. Also, feel better when washing clothes. That's it!

Very satisfied with our water system...We have had the Pelican System for a while now at least two charcoal changes which is done every 5 years. We have done this our selves but this time we had it done professionally. I would recommend that as well...So we are a long time user.. The periodic filter change is very easy and uncomplicated for us to do by our selves when needed...I would definitely recommend this system..
