Description
How It Works:
- Sand Media Filter:
- Removes physical particles: Filters out larger contaminants like sand, dirt, silt, rust, and debris.
- Process: Water flows through a sand bed that traps these sediments, preventing them from passing through.
- Carbon Filter:
- Removes chemicals and organic compounds: Activated carbon absorbs chlorine, pesticides, herbicides, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and removes bad odors and tastes.
- Process: Water passes through activated carbon, which adsorbs chemical impurities on its surface, leaving the water purified.
Benefits of This Combination:
- Comprehensive Filtration:
- The sand filter removes physical contaminants, while the carbon filter targets chemical impurities and organic matter, delivering much cleaner and safer water.
- Improved Water Quality:
- Removes chlorine and chemicals that cause unpleasant odors and tastes.
- Provides clearer, better-tasting water for drinking, cooking, and bathing.
- Extended Lifespan of Appliances:
- Sediment-free water helps prevent clogs and wear in plumbing and appliances like water heaters, washing machines, and dishwashers.
- Health and Skin Benefits:
- Chlorine and chemical removal makes the water safer for skin and hair, reducing dryness and irritation.
- Better for drinking, reducing exposure to harmful chemicals.
- Better for the Environment:
- Reduces the need for bottled water by improving tap water quality, which cuts down plastic waste.
- Reduced Maintenance:
- Protects downstream water filtration systems (like softeners or reverse osmosis systems) from sediment buildup, lowering maintenance and extending their life.
