Product Description
The Eco Hero 5 Stage Reverse Osmosis with Remineraliser - 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 Faucet with a classic polished chrome finish to suit your kitchen’s style.
The system is also ideal for pairing with a range of stylish mixer tap or faucets which are available to upgrade to for an aesthetic 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. As part of this 5 stage reverse osmosis system, the Remineraliser cartridge actually adds healthy minerals back into your water after the intense purification process.
Adding minerals back into your purified water via the Remineraliser Cartridge, raises your water’s pH balance to a level considered alkaline. Minerals like calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium are added for great potential health benefits such as improved gut and kidney health. Calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium are all minerals that humans need for healthy teeth, bones and overall wellbeing.
More than just great tasting and healthier for you, water produced from this system is great for washing fruit and vegetables, cooking with, tea and coffee, pets’ water dishes, watering plants and more!
The under sink EcoHero 5 Stage Reverse Osmosis with Remineraliser system is WaterMark Certified and has NSF 42 Certified components. This system comes ready to install, complete with cartridges, a slimline faucet 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.
