Inside the 10 Stage Filter Cartridge
10 Stages of Protection Against Major Water
Contaminants
U.S. Patent No. 6,197,193 B1
|
Stage
1 - 100 micron sponge filter. Traps
larger solids (sediments) such as RUST.
Stage 2 -
8 oz. of KDF-55. KDF-55 is a patented alloy. It removes
free Chlorine and some Heavy Metals, thereby prolonging
the life of the filter and is an excellent Bacteriostat.
Stage 3 -10
micron felt pad. Removes smaller floating solids and
separates the layers, preserving their integrity.
Stage 4 - 30 cubic inches of ultra
fine mesh superior coconut shell Granulated Activated
Carbon, “G.A.C..” G.A.C. has long been accepted by the
E.P.A. and others as the premier, cost-effective way
to remove Chlorine, bad odor and color from drinking
water. G.A.C. also removes Organic Contaminants such
as Pesticides, Herbicides, Arsenic, Mercury and Trihalomethanes,
a Cancer-causing Organic Pollutant.
Stage 5 - 10 micron felt pad for Fine
Sediment Removal.
Stage 6 - 7 cubic
inches of ion exchange resin.This resin has an exceptional
affinity for Lead, and removes Lead to below minimum
E.P.A. standards.
Stage 7- Additional 10 micron felt
pad provides an extra buffer against Floating Sediment
of any kind.
Stage 8 - 7 cubic inch bed of G.A.C..
Provides extra protection against Cancer-causing Organic
Pollutants.
Stage 9 - 3 oz. of calcite. Calcite
raises the water’s pH, which lowers acidity and increases
alkalinity, which many nutritionists recommend.
Stage 10 - 1 micron absolute depth
filter. A filter with a micron rating this small screens
outcysts and protozoa, (including Giardia and Cryptosporidium),
and gives the filtered water a sparkling clarity.

How
Long Does the Replacable Filter Cartridge
Last?

after 1500 gallons.
This would be approximately one year for a
family of four,
assuming they each drank 1/2 gal. a day and
they wash fruits
and vegetables in filtered water.

How
Does One Change the Replacable Filter Cartridge?
Unlike many brands, the whole system does not
have to be thrown away. The housing is simply unscrewed,
the old cartridge removed and a new one dropped in.
