Under-Counter
Water Filters for Restaurants,
Kitchens,
Wet Bars,
RVs, Boats, Bathroom Sinks . . . anywhere fresh, pure,
pollution-free,
great tasting washing, drinking or cooking water is desired.
Clean water is the lifeline to good health
and CuZn™ Under-Counter Water Filters provide the best possible
water for cooking, drinking and washing every time you turn on the
faucet.
The CuZn™ Under-Counter Water
Filter works beneath any home or office sink to filter up to
50,000 gallons (depending on model) of cold water on demand! Using
a combination of patented trace minerals (Copper-Zinc) which has been
tested to NSF standard 42 and 61, and acid wash coconut shell carbon,
they remove and/or reduce chlorine, sediment, algae,
molds, scale, bad taste, odors, and other undesirable contaminants that
may effect the quality of your water supply. And unlike carbon only filters,
bacteria can't grow inside the bacteriostatic CuZn filters.
The CuZn Under-Counter can also filter hot water, provided it
is flushed with cold water afterward to release the heat that would
otherwise be trapped within the filter housing. The CuZn Refillable
Under-Counter Water Filter is also excellent in situations where sulfur
and iron are present and a CuZn Whole House system is not feasible. Sulfur
and iron expends the media more quickly than other contaminants, so refilling
the system is economical and environmentally responsible.
Cysts and Pharmaceutical Drugs
Common water-borne microbiological cysts are Cryptosporidium or Giardia
cysts. If your municipal water department is using chlorine and/or chloramines
to treat your water, cysts should not be a problem unless there is a
contamination in the water lines somewhere between your house and the
water processing plant. If you are on well water, cysts are potentially
a problem. A water test can detect cysts in your water.
Also, a recent analysis of tap water supplies in major metropolitan
areas discovered that the water was contaminated with trace amounts of
pharmaceuticals including antibiotics, anti-seizure medications, anti-inflammatory
drugs, psychotropic drugs, pain medications and even caffeine. If you
suspect that your water may be contaminate with cysts or pharmaceutical
drugs, upgrade to the 1-micron
absolute KDF-acid wash coconut shell carbon filter.
The
refillable under-counter
models (shown in picture to the right) are
maintenance free and install in about 15 minutes, hooking up to the
cold water supply - when you turn on the cold water it's all CuZn pure. Under-counter
models are available in three different micron sizes;
the smaller the micron the more particulate is removed from the water.
However, please note that the smaller the micron size, the sooner the
filter must be replaced because the filter becomes clogged sooner. You
can get an idea of how much particulate your water has by looking at
the contents of the filter by removing the strainer at the end of your
sink faucet.

Iron Removal (Orange Tint to Water)
To determine whether or not the CuZn filter will remove iron from your
drinking water, here's a simple test you can do yourself: Fill a clear
glass with water and let it sit for 15-20 minutes. If the iron settles
to the bottom then the standard 5-micron CuZn Countertop Water Filter
should be able to remove the majority of the iron particles. If the particles
remain suspended, a filter won't help.
CuZn Refillable Under-Counter Water Filter Specifications
Capacity: Up to 8,000 gallons per cartridge for 1 micron,
10,000 gallons for the 5 micron, 25,000 gallons for the smaller non-refillable
20 micron and 50,000 gallons for the larger non-refillable. Filtration capacity
is always dependent on water quality. The specialty filters for Chloramines,
Fluoride and Nitrates remove 2500 ppm (parts per million) of the respective
contaminant, and the Arsenic filter removes
50 ppb (parts per billion) of arsenic from the water before needing
to be replaced. Filtration capacity for the specialty filters is dependent
on water
quality and the amount of the specific contaminant in the water. Typical
specialty filter life is one year.
