How the system works:
The First Stage:
The water enters a compacted bed
of steam activated carbon. This removes unpleasant taste and odors,
and also chlorine, pesticides, THM's, PCB's, and other common chemicals
that have been found in water supplies and have been defined as
carcinogenic by the EPA.
The
Second Stage:
The water enters a #304 stainless steel disinfecting
chamber which bombards bacteria, viruses, and harmful microorganisms
with high levels of ultraviolet light and renders them harmless.
This process of purification works without chemicals and leaves
no residual in the water. Ultraviolet irradiation is now accepted
by both the EPA and the FDA as a safe, effective method of sterilization.
