The Frizzlife CW5000 is an under-sink chiller. It connects to a reverse osmosis system or other under-sink filter you already have and supplies cold water from a dedicated faucet. It is an add-on rather than a filter, so it is meant for people who already have filtered water and want it cold.
What it does
Filtered water from your existing system passes through the chiller, which stores it in a 0.53-gallon tank and keeps it cold. Frizzlife says this removes the need for a refrigerator dispenser, a countertop cooler or bottled water. The dual-outlet faucet provides both chilled and room-temperature water.
Temperature and capacity
The temperature is adjustable from 39°F to 52°F (about 4°C to 11°C). The stored volume is enough, according to Frizzlife, for around three to four 16.9 oz bottles of chilled water without waiting for another cooling cycle. After that, the unit must cool more water, so very heavy use may mean a short wait.
Compatibility
Frizzlife says it works with most under-sink filtration systems through 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch quick-connect set-ups. The listing names iSpring, Waterdrop, APEC, Express Water, Aquasana and Frizzlife systems as ones it fits. Check your own system's outlet fitting and tubing size before ordering, since the chiller depends on a match. The listing also states that it is not for cold plunge tubs or ice baths.
Protection features
Frizzlife lists several layers of protection against leaks: an automatic leak detector, a pressure-reducing valve, reinforced tank construction and secure quick-connect fittings. As with any under-sink appliance, check connections after installation and again over the first days.
Size
The unit measures about 14.2 x 5.5 x 12.8 inches (36 x 14 x 33 cm). Frizzlife says it fits beneath most kitchen sinks. It needs a power connection, since it is a cooling device, and a spot for the dual-outlet faucet.
Who it suits
It suits households with an under-sink filter or RO system who want cold drinking water at the sink and do not want to fill pitchers or bottles for the fridge.
What to check before you buy
- Cabinet space: it sits beside your existing filter, so measure the free space, including plumbing.
- Fittings: confirm that your system uses compatible 1/4-inch or 3/8-inch connections.
- Power: check for an outlet in or near the cabinet.
- Faucet hole: the dual-outlet faucet needs its own mounting hole, or a spare one on the sink or counter.
- Noise: cooling units can make some sound, so consider the room next to the cabinet.
- Installation: follow the manual and local plumbing and electrical codes.
