Aquasana’s twin cartridge, multi-stage filtration process uses a combination of the most effective technologies available, mechanical filtration, adsorption and ion exchange.
Aquasana’s exclusive dual filter system uses a combination of carbon filtration‚ ion exchange and sub-micron filtration to produce truly healthy‚ great tasting water at the convenience of your kitchen tap.
Filters out chlorine‚ lead‚ VOCs, MTBE and Cysts (chlorine resistant parasites), and leaves in the natural trace minerals!
Why Aquasana Water Filter is different?
Patented Dual-Filter Process:
The "A" cartridge - filters out sediment and tiny microscopic particles that can cause cloudiness and unpleasant taste and odor in water.
The "A" cartridge also filters out chlorine, the most concentrated and the most competitive chemical in our water. This allows the following stages in cartridge "B" to focus on the more difficult contaminants like lead and volatile organic chemicals (VOCs).
The "B" cartridge - is where the final stages of filtration take place. Lead is filtered
out by a complex ion exchange process where lead ions are replaced with potassium ions. This process is highly effective for lead reduction and also enhances the natural mineral balance of water. Potassium is one of the minerals that gives water a natural
spring water taste and a neutral pH.
Next is the most challenging and possibly the most important stage, the adsorption of
volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), like herbicides, pesticides and industrial solvents.
(see Performance Data Sheet in Support Info section for specific performance claims).
The "B" cartridge is also a 0.5 micron mechanical filter effective for
chlorine resistant microscopic organisms like cryptosporidium and giardia,
two common water borne parasites that can cause flu like symptoms for
most, but can also be fatal to small children and the elderly.
**Filter cartridges last for 500 gallons and should be replaced every 6 months.
This patented process selectively filters out specific contaminants while allowing
the natural minerals to remain, creating the healthiest, best tasting water possible.
This patented twin cartridge drinking water filter installs in seconds to standard kitchen faucets and provides up to 30 gallons an hour of ultra-filtered high quality water for drinking, cooking and other beverages.
Aquasana's contaminant reduction capabilities are tested by Underwriters Laboratories using NSF Standards 42 & 53.
IMPORTANT: Do not use where water is microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown microbiological quality, except that systems claiming cyst reduction may be used on water containing cysts.
