Description
How it works: A special carbon filter media is installed at your water’s point of entry before or after any other filter or water softener. As the water goes through the media tank, the carbon media traps the contaminants and holds them until the unit back-washes. Similar to water softeners, the unit will backwash itself automatically, usually at around 2:00 am.
Jonathan Bardo –
We live in Montreal and the city made us aware we had lead in our pipe (brand new house so it had to be on the city side). I couldn’t get an answer on when they were planning to change their portion so I decided to have this installed. I hired an independant lab before and after the installation and I’m very impressed by the result. Before we had 0.0124mg/l which is way above Health Canada safe limit and after we ended up at 0.0013mg/l which is way below the safe limit (at 0.005) and correspond to approx 90% reduction. All in all very happy 🙂
