AND ANSWERS
- Most of us do not worry about the quality of the
water coming through our taps as long as we get
clear-looking, odorless water that seems okay.
You would be surprised to know that even as the
water that flows through your taps appears and
smells clean, it may contain several contaminants
that could be extremely harmful to you and your
familys health. - Usually, drinking water filtration systems are
bought as a reactive measure. Very few people
know that installing a good water filtration
system at home is the first step towards
protecting you and your familys health. - The contaminants and pollutants in water may
differ based on the source of your water supply
well water or municipal water. Our Water
filtration systems are designed to effectively
remove contaminants, balance the pH level of
water, and deliver pure and clean water to you. - If you are still in two minds about installing a
home water filtration system, here are the
benefits of using our filtration system

4WHOLE HOUSE WATER FILTRATION TOP 10 QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
- 1. DO I NEED A WHOLE HOUSE WATER FILTRATION
SYSTEM? - A whole home water purifier is required when
there is a lot of sediment problem. It is
installed on a homes main water supply. It
processes the complete water system which comes
into the house and used for all purposes such as
cooking, laundry, toilets, etc. Sediments are
small particles of sand which can damage all the
taps including drinking water. They also get
deposited in the water heaters which can
eventually harm them. Moreover, if there is a
concern of some kind of odor in the water,
complete water supply of the house should be
filtered. Having a whole home water filtration
system is a good option to prevent radioactive
materials. - 2. WHAT SHOULD BE THE WATER FLOW RATE?
- All the water filters have a tendency to restrict
water flow. Hence, it is important to understand
the pressure. The flow rate will depend on the
use of the water. The drinking water taps can
usually have a maximum flow rate of ½ gallons per
minute. However, if we talk about the entire
house, approximately, 15 gallons per minute can
flow through more than one taps. The flow rate
can be calculated based on your incoming pipe
size and the volume of water supply.
53. FOR HOMES, WHAT IS THE CLEANLINESS LEVEL WHEN
IT COMES TO THE WATER SUPPLY? When we talk about
groundwater, there are certain problems which
pop-up. They are odor, chlorine, sediment,
unwanted minerals, and unwanted contaminants. A
test of your tap water is required to understand
the amount and variety of contaminants present in
the water. This will give a clear picture of what
type of filter you would need for the water
supply. Some of these variants can be observed at
home. If there are stains in the bathroom units,
it means your water contains iron and minerals.
Chlorine and a different kind of smell in the
water can be easily noticed. A home water filter
should be able to remove the sediments and other
contaminants. Some harmful minerals could also be
a concern, with no leaving behind the odor and
taste of the water. 4. HOW MUCH SHOULD ONE SPEND
ON A WHOLE HOUSE WATER FILTRATION SYSTEM? A
whole house water purifying system can range from
100-10,000. The installation charges would add
up to this amount as this system needs to be
installed with the main water supply of the
house. Moreover, as the system filters water for
the entire house, the cartridges would need
periodic replacement.
65. WILL THIS WATER FILTER TAKE CARE OF THE TASTE
AND ODOR PROBLEM IN WATER? YES. There is an
activated carbon filter in the purification
system. This helps to remove the contaminants
which are responsible for odor and taste of the
water. Carbon leaves the water clean and pure.
They last twice as long as sediments filters, but
you would need to replace them on a regular
basis. They cannot be cleaned. However, keeping
in mind that a sediment filter should be
installed before a carbon filter will surely
enhance the lifespan of the latter. 6. WILL THIS
FILTER SYSTEM REMOVE SEDIMENT AND KEEP AWAY
BACTERIA? YES. There is a sediment filter in the
system which removes the sediments from water.
The whole house water purifying system also
contains carbon filters with zinc and copper
integrated into it. They keep away bacteria to
grow inside the filter. Usually, chlorine does
this work. But if you wish to remove maximum
chlorine from the water, you would need this
filter which would help your system stay away
from bacteria growth.
77. WHEN SHOULD THE CARTRIDGE BE CHANGED? The
system indicates that the filters need
replacement. Keep a note when the flow rate
reduces and the taste of water changes. The flow
rate is disturbed due to excess of sediment
deposit. Hence, it is time to change the sediment
filter. And, when the carbon filter loses its
efficacy, the taste and odor of the water
changes. Its time for you to change the carbon
filter. 8. WHY DOES THE COLOR OF THE WATER
CHANGE AFTER CHANGING THE CARBON FILTER? The
water-color may change when you replace the
carbon filter. This is due to carbon dust being
chased out from the new filter. Letting a few
gallons of water flow away will solve this
problem. It does not reoccur only happens with
new carbon filter cartridges. 9. WHAT ARE
DOUBLE-CANISTER FILTERS? A double canister water
filter is a package of two filters, where one is
used to remove sediment and the other enhances
the taste and odor of the water. One filter can
perform both the tasks. However, it is always
recommended to use two separate filters here.
Hence, double canister filters are used. These
filters also increase the flow rate.

810. HOW EFFECTIVE IS A WHOLE HOUSE WATER
FILTRATION SYSTEM? A high-end whole house water
purifier can do the work at its best. Select the
one which suits best according to your water
supply. It can remove contaminants and sediments
at the point of entry into the house. The whole
house water system can filter water for cooking,
washing, drinking, and toilet purposes. This
system can also remove sulfur from the water. If
