Instructions / Assembly
Filters can accomplish two goals:
Removal of fluid contaminants Fluid contaminants can include bacteria, metals, or chemicals
in your water that may affect the water's taste and smell or its safety for human consumption.
Collection of suspended solids Solid contaminants can include dirt, rust, or minerals in the
water, which may give the water a "cloudy" appearance or leave deposits on fixtures, surfaces,
and appliances.
Sediment Filtration - Takes out dirt, dust and silt.
How it works: Water that appears cloudy or turbid is caused by particulates (such as rust, sand,
or clay) found in the water. Sediment filters remove these particulates from water by trapping
them.
Activated Carbon Filtration - Pre Carbon: Ensures that 99% of all chlorine, lead & microbial
cysts have been removed.
Ultraviolet Disinfection UV - Assures 99.9% of bacteria and viruses are eliminated including
cryptospodium, Hepatitus-A, Polio, Streptococcus, Adevnovirus, E.Coli, Rotavirus & Giardia.
How it works: Ultraviolet light is one of natures’ powerful disinfectants. Used at the right
wavelength and intensity, UV light can destroy microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses. The
water flows around a clear UV bulb, and the light destroys the genetic material of the pathogens,
thus preventing it from reproducing. The efficiency of any UV system is affected by the clarity
of the incoming water supply, so you may need to treat your water to remove solid particles
through filtration prior to treatment via the UV system. Dirt, metals, and chemicals cannot be
reduced through a UV system.
Reverse Osmosis (RO) - Crystal Clear Water, free from virtually all impurities including, salt,
iron, fluoride, lead, bacteria, pharmaceuticals & radio-active materials. Eliminates Scale & and
other contaminants that are present.
How it works: RO uses pressure to force water with a high concentration of a contaminant
through a semi-permeable membrane. The water can pass back through the membrane, but the
contaminant cannot, thus removing the contaminant from the water.
Post Carbon: Ensures that 99% of all chlorine, lead & microbial cysts have been removed &
Assures consistent pure taste and no odor.
