Very easy to install. Just pull out the vinyl temporary plugs and the 1/4 inch water line fits right in with no leaks. The directions said to let water flow ~10 min, but that is not bad as long as you have a couple of containers to dump into the sink. The flow comes out pretty fast. This filter is under my sink as a pre-filter to my RO system. Glad I could find a sediment only filter. Exactly what I needed with the longest "gallon" life. My water coming in is softened so should not have much sediment and this should last much longer than the mfg says.
