Ideal for Municipal Hard Water. Removes hardness, bad taste and odor cased by chlorine, chloramines, or organic matter. High efficiency softening that offers signifant salt and water savings each year. High efficiency softening that offers signifant salt and water savings each year. Neutralizes and Softens Acidic Water. This two-tank system uses calcite in the first tank to raise the pH in acidic water and softens water in the second tank. Removes hardness, iron, manganese and tannins. High efficiency softening that offers signifant salt and water savings each year. High Hardness Applications. The first tank significantly reduces the water hardness and the second tank acts as a “polisher” by removing all remaining hardness. Specially designed for low pH (acidic) high iron and hardness removal , the SIM Series is an effective, efficient and economical solution for softening hard water and removing clear iron. Ideal for water supplies with high iron/manganese/hydrogen sulfide content. This one-of-a-kind filter system uses a dedicated air tank to offer superior iron removal capacity all while using less water than single tank iron filters. Affordable Iron Removal. An effective and affordable way to remove iron without the use of messy and dangerous chemicals or expensive pumps. Environmentally Conscious. The ideal RO for homeowners who want the highest quality drinking water at their tap without waste. The H.E.R.O. wastes virtually no water, offering a 99.9% recovery rate. Certified Performance. Certified for the removal of harmful contaminants including Lead and PFOA/PFOS. Plus, quick change filter design makes service simple. Budget Friendly. Neatly stored under the counter, the Economy is an affordable option to have bottled quality water at your tap. UV Disinfection. Proven to control microbiological (bacteria & virus) issues in water including E.coli, Cryptosporidium, and Giardia Lamblia without the use of chemicals. UV/Filter Combo. UV disinfection with whole-house filtration provides your home or cottage with clean, great-tasting water that you can rely on. Key Point??? Available with: Nextsand ( 3-5 micron), Chlorine/Chloramine, and Neutralizer Key point?? This whole-house filter reduces chlorine, chloramines and other bad tastes and odours.
