Does anyone have experience using this faucet with an under-counter water filter connected to it?

Yes, I installed this faucet and the F-1000 water filter last September and everything work great.

It is just a faucet so you'd need a separate filtration device. I wouldn't recommend attaching anything to the tube after the on/off value as it is rather delicate. I haven't had any problems. We filter water after the fact with using a Brita filter water jug.

Yes. It comes with a fitting that connects to the cold water line underneath your sink. The only water that gets filtered is water coming out of the filtrete faucet. No loss in water pressure. No need to run water for a while when you want to drink fresh water. Also easy to install.

This kind of dripping situation is not happening in my faucet filter. Mine has been used for quite a while and has replaced a few filters and is still working fine so far.

No, just install the t-valve in the plumbing lines under the faucet and this will divert the water when you turn on the faucet handle for the filter water. Your current faucet will work as it does now.

I agree to procedure made by Ben Percy. I would add,turn off cold water valve to prevent pouring out of water from quick connect mounted on wall of cabinet beneath sink. Sometimes it may be difficult to twist new filter up clockwise. If pressure pin (valve) becomes stuck, water will pour out from port that filter inserts into. I am suggesting to close off main cold water line to filter.My past experience has been water flooded inside of my cabinet.

Yes, the filter goes under the sink. The only thing visible on your counter top/sink is what you see in the picture.

You can attach it to your cold water line under your sink, or anywhere you have a cold water line, really, if your home is on a softening system already then it would hook up the same. I'd. Ask the manufacturer about how it would affect the filter life.

We don't have an under-the-sink RO system, but do have a single filter in our pump house for our incoming water supply before it goes through our water softener system in the house. We previously had a similar filter under the kitchen sink and used the same filter for it.

No problems at all. Water does not splash onto the counter. I love this faucet- and believe me I have had many over the years. I purchased it because my daughter in law has one and I liked it so much that I had to have it when we remodeled our kitchen.

If it is falling off the connector, I cannot help, but if the connector is falling off the faucet, the threads in the faucet spout are probably worn with age and the only solution is to replace the spout or whole faucet. I have had no problems with the connection of the filter to the adapter.

Yes, same here, it came with a filter and installation kit. Our contractor installed the filter in the cabinet under the sink. And the faucet works very nicely!

I didn't actually install it. But mine is mounted under a granite slab counter & I have a commercial style faucet.

I need to know the answer to that myself. I have the under counter version of the Filter.....

I would think you could add a "T" in the line on the way to the faucet that comes with the filter kit. One of the branches from the T could easily run to the refrigerator. I am thinking about doing this myself. Mine would have to run down through the floor and across the ceiling in the room below and pop up behind the refrigerator. There may not be enough pressure to get the water through the filter in the refrigerator. That filter is part of the circuit that the water travels so I can not omit it.

It should. We have a separate filter. This unit replaced a previous faucet by a different MFG. It worked on the same connection, which I believe is a standard copper or plastic pipe connection.

Yes! That's exactly how we use it. We have never installed the filter since we have water delivery as well.
