Product Description
The Eco Hero 5 Stage Reverse Osmosis - Under Sink system is perfect for those who want to enjoy great quality purified drinking water conveniently at the turn of a tap. This system is neatly plumbed under your sink and includes a Slimline LED Faucet for an aesthetic and quality addition to your kitchen.
Of all methods to purify water, the process of reverse osmosis is one of the most advanced and effective. More than standard water filtration, the intense water purification process of reverse osmosis removes almost all contaminants found in drinking water, including total dissolved solids (TDS).
Better for the environment (and your home’s water usage), this system is fitted with the Pure Water Systems EcoHero-50 membrane. The EcoHero-50 is the latest in membrane technology, providing up to 300% improved wastewater efficiency when compared to rival membranes.
Unlike standard carbon water filtration, the ultra-fine 0.0001-micron EcoHero-50 membrane removes a minimum of 90.8% of total dissolved solids (TDS) from water. This reverse osmosis system significantly reduces organic and inorganic compounds such as fluoride, viruses, bacteria, herbicides, pesticides, nitrates, algae, phosphates and more. The end result is great tasting, healthier and purified drinking water, conveniently at the turn of a tap.
A Deionising Cartridge is added to this system to provide an additional stage of filtration to remove the most contaminants possible from your water, achieving a purity level similar to distilled water and as low as 0 ppm TDS. *
While reverse osmosis is excellent for removing contaminants (such as heavy metals like cadmium, arsenic and chromium), healthy minerals and salts can also be removed leaving your water acidic. For great potential health benefits (such as improved gut and kidney health), you can raise your water’s pH balance to a level considered alkaline by adding healthy minerals back to your water with a Remineraliser Cartridge.
Optional final stage:
The Pure Water Systems pH Neutraliser Cartridge is an optional final stage of filtration; it refreshes the water in the holding tank, raising the water to a consistent pH level of approximately 7.5. Whilst reverse osmosis systems offer the highest level of water purification, many minerals can be removed in the process, which can leave the water mildly acidic. The calcite in this cartridge raises the pH to a level considered neutral, whilst the granular activated carbon effectively removes any remaining unpleasant taste and odour.
Reverse osmosis water is more than just healthier, great-tasting water. You can use reverse osmosis water for washing fruit and vegetables, cooking with, tea and coffee, pets’ water dishes, watering plants and more!
The EcoHero 5 Stage Reverse Osmosis - Under Sink system is Watermark Certified and has NSF 42 Certified components. This system comes ready to install, complete with cartridges and high-quality housing parts and fittings.
The Pure Water Systems purification system incorporates a precision machined, full metal construction pressure limiting valve and dual check valve, providing protection from pressure spikes, preventing backflow, and resisting water hammer. Whilst this is a requirement under Australian Standards, we have chosen this valve as it is ultra-reliable and performs to the highest standard, giving you peace of mind that your system is protected.
* Based on an inlet TDS of 100ppm. Internally tested using Pure Water Systems 5 stage reverse osmosis systems.
COMPLIMENTED WITH A MODERN AND STYLISH LED FAUCET
The stylish Slimline LED Faucet is an elegant, innovative water filtration faucet that comes in a variety of finishes to fit perfectly with the décor of your home.
Its clever design features a LED light that illuminates blue when fresh, filtered water flows through. The LED indicator will then change to red to indicate when it is time to replace your filter cartridge, so there is no more guessing or forgetting.
Simply replace the faucet battery at the same time as your filter cartridge to reset the LED indicator for another 12 months*. To make life even easier, Pure Water Systems will supply a replacement faucet battery when you purchase a replacement filter cartridge.
