Product Description
Your system will bring you and your family water you can trust as long as you don't neglect it. So when the monitor on your Water Treatment System beeps and blinks, it has a good reason. After filtering 1,250 gallons of water or operating for a year, it's letting you know it needs a new filter. Just pop in a replacement to keep your system up to spec. And your water up to snuff.
Water Treatment System
Description and Features
………………………………………………………………………………………………………
The Water Treatment System is a point-of-use (POU) water filter utilizing pressed
carbon block technology. The filter is made by compressing finely divided, activated
carbon into a carbon block. The water is forced through the blocks submicron pore
structure by water pressure.
The filter cartridge consists of four stages:
• The first two stages are non-woven fabrics to provide initial particulate reduction.
• The third stage, a patented carbon core, is effective for chemical reduction.
• The fourth stage is a porous polymer core that acts as a support medium for the
carbon block.
Flow Rate
The Water Treatment System filter is rated for 1250 gallons at 1 gallon per minute at 60
psi. (Flow rate will vary directly with water pressure and time the filter has been in
service.) This is well in excess of the need of the average family of four for one year.
Effectively reduces:
• Lead. The EPA says lead in drinking water can cause serious health problems from
reduced birth weight to kidney damage and mental retardation. The Water
Treatment System has been tested and certified by NSF International (Std. 53) for
the reduction of lead in drinking water.
• Over 30 Pesticides and Pesticide By-Products. The Water Treatment System
reduces chemicals such as atrazine, alachlor, EDB, and other agricultural
contaminants.
• Effectively Reduces Industrial Chemicals. PCBs, PNAs, Hexachloroethylene, and
many more industrial chemicals are reduced by the Water Treatment System.
• Effectively Reduces Chlorine and THMs. Reduces chlorine and THMs - suspected
cancer-causing agents from drinking water. Without chlorine, water tastes and
smells better.
• Reduces Cryptosporidium oocysts and Giardia Iamblia Cysts. These intestinal
parasites may not be destroyed by chlorination. They cause symptoms such as
vomiting and diarrhea, which resemble the flu but are longer-lasting and more
debilitating than most cases of the flu. The Water Treatment System reduces
Cryptosporidium oocysts (one of the smallest cysts known in North America) and will
therefore reduce larger waterborne parasites.
• Other Particulate Contaminants. The Water Treatment System effectively reduces
dirt, rust, sediment, and scale as small as 0.2 microns (1/300th the diameter of a
human hair).
Improves Taste
Coffee, tea, juice, ice cubes, and soup all have a better flavor and no unusual odors
when made with water from the Water Treatment System.
Simple to Use
Fits most standard water faucets or taps into your cold water line. On-the-counter or
under-the-sink, your Water Treatment System suits your needs.
Simple to Install
No special tools needed! Complete instructions show you step-by-step how to install
your Water Treatment System.

NOTES:
1. The Water Treatment System must be maintained in accordance with the manufacturers
Instruction Manual to ensure proper product performance.
2. The Water Treatment System will NOT reduce nitrates, salt, or hardness minerals in your
drinking water.
3. The Water Treatment System is designed for use with cold microbiologically safe (potable)
water only.
4. The compounds or other contaminants reduced by this water treatment device are NOT
necessarily in your water. It is recommended that you have your water tested to determine
your specific water quality needs.
