Ecor Environmental Countertop Water Filters and Purifiers

Description

Please note: the Ecor Environmental Countertop Stainless Steel Water Filters are temporarily not available at this time. Please refer to our entire line of Water Purifiers for an alternative.

Water quality can be problematic as water may contain pesticide runoff, chlorine, volatile organic chemicals and bacteria, all posing potential health risk. As a result, many people do not feel safe drinking the water from their own tap and reach for the land filling plastic water bottles. Fortunately, we offer an exceptional line of countertop stainless steel water purifiers to treat hundreds of contaminants in your water and decrease the ever growing collection of water bottles that are entering our land fills. Also to mention, our stainless water purifiers are aesthetically pleasing and is a significantly cheaper alternative than purchasing bottled water. We feel confident you will have the safest, cleanest and freshest water coming out of your faucet after presenting your home with our easy-to-install Ecor Environmental Stainless Steel water purifiers.

Features

• Filters 10,000 gallons of water
• Stainless steel housing: benefits include less damage to the housing in the event of a water pressure spike
• Can easily be back washed. Semi-annually back washing of the unit not only ensures balanced filtration and eliminates the potential for channeling, but also back-flushes the unit.
• Unique design allows for a substantial amount of filtration media enabling more contact time with the water. More contact time means better filtration
• Attaches to your standard water faucet easily with no plumbing required. Includes a variety of valve sizes to adapt easier to your faucet.
• Uses the latest technologies that blend the adsorption capabilities of coconut shell activated carbon with REDOX and more.
• 6-Stage filter (6 steps explained in more detail below): Filter is used in single, double and triple filtration systems and is the last housing water is filtered through. Reduces silt, sediment, sand, rust, dirt, lead, copper, aluminum, chlorine, iron and hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg smell), pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, volatile organic compounds (VOC's), trihalomethanes (THH's), and water hardness.
• Replace filter: 1-3 years, or when the flow of the water will automatically either stop or slow down greatly (varies with condition and amount of water consumption)
• Optional Washable Pre-filtration Filter available: Specially designed for use with any kind of water system with an unusually large amount of sediment that can clog up the water filter. This pre-filter helps remove the sediment, thus enabling your filter to work more efficiently and extend the lifetime of filters. Installs between the water filter and the tubing. No tools are necessary for installation. Inside is a fine stainless steel filter and an FDA approved 4 micron filter that is easy to clean out.

Setup/Care

Installation is simple and fast! No plumber required. You will simply replace your current aerator nozzle with the new control valve and then connect the hose(s) to the filter. Setup should only take you 10 minutes.

How it Works

Water Filtration Stages for 6-stage filter:

• Stage 1: Water flows through pre and post one-micron filter pads (1 micron equals 1/25,000th of an inch), which removes suspended particles such as silt, sediment, cyst (Giardia, Cryptosporidium), sand, rust, dirt and other un-dissolved matter.
  
  
• Stage 2 and 3: Water flows through a bed of media made of special high-purity allow blend of two dissimilar metals – copper and zinc (KDF-55D and KDF-85D). KDF is a major advancement in water treatment technology that works on the electro-chemical and spontaneous oxidation – reduction (REDOX) principles. Chlorine is instantaneously and almost inexhaustibly oxidized. Heavy metals such as lead, mercury, copper, nickel, chromium, cadmium, aluminum, and other dissolved metals are removed from the water.
  
  
• Stage 4: Water flows through ion exchange resins, reducing heavy metals such as lead, copper, aluminum and water hardness.
  
  
• Stage 5: Water flows through granulated activated carbon (GAC). GAC is universally recognized and widely used as an effective absorbent for a wide variety of organic contaminants, such as chlorine (99.9%), chemicals linked to cancer (THM’s, benzene), pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, volatile organic compounds (VOC’s), PCB’s MBTE’s and hundreds of other chemical contaminants that may be present in water causing bad taste and odors in your drinking water.
  
  Carbon is extremely porous and provides a large surface area for contaminants to collect. Carbon-only filters must also use their capacity for chlorine removal, resulting in a shortened life. A high-grade coconut shell carbon is used that is most effective at removing chemicals. Coconut shell carbon provides a significantly higher volume of micro-pores than either coal, wood or lignite based carbon. As a result, it is more effective than other carbon types in removing trihalomethanes (THM’s) and other chemicals from municipally supplied water. Since the REDOX media removes the chlorine before it reaches the carbon, the carbon capacity is not wasted on chlorine and is free to concentrate more effectively on organic contaminates.
  
  
• Stage 6: Water flows through another one-micron filtration pad for further reduction of undesirable particles. The end result is a great reduction or total elimination of a wide variety of contaminants.

Summary

As mentioned earlier, many residents feel their water tastes bad, has an odor and basically is not safe to drink or cook with. Therefore, many resort to purchasing cases and cases of bottled water. It is estimated that Americans drink millions and millions of single-serving bottles of water year. Since these bottles are non-returnable, all of this plastic will end up in the landfills and the surrounding environment. In addition, many of these bottles are not made or regulated for reuse and may cause health risks if filled up and drank from over and over again. A quick, cost-effective and eco-friendly solution is to attach a water purifier to your water source. Whether it’s a countertop, under the sink or whole house water purifier, you can feel confident you are providing your family with safe and healthy drinking water without the use of a harmful product for the environment. Our Ecor Environmental Stainless Steel water purifiers only use advanced technology to effectively remove hundreds of contaminants from chlorine, rust, nitrates, volatile organic compounds, arsenic, or fluoride.
