Precoat Technology
There are many different water treatment technologies that address different
water quality needs. When it comes to filtration, Everpure's precoat process
provides better protection against contaminants.
Precoat filtration removes particles, off-tastes and odors, asbestos fibers,
cysts like Cryptosporidium and Giardia, and other harmful contaminants.
Precoat provides Absolute Filtration and removes 99.99% of all particles
as small as 1/2 micron in size. This patented technology offers the largest
filtering surface area, a long filter life, and protection against undetectable
failures such as channeling and dumping.
A typical 10" carbon block filter has a surface area of 78.5 square
inches. The surface area of a pleated membrane in a 10" Everpure precoat
filter is 444 square inches. That's 5.6 times more surface area.
A heavy-duty, aluminum cartridge housing protects the Everpure filter system
from splitting or bursting. It's lined with a food-grade polymer that prevents
the water from coming in contact with the aluminum.

Through our exclusive precoat process, Micro-Pure coats the filter membrane throughout the life of the cartridge. Water flows evenly and freely, even with changes in water pressure.
Micro-Pure,
A proprietary blend of very fine activated carbon called Micro-Pure, coats a unique, pleated filter membrane.

Incoming pressure forces the water through the layer of Micro-Pure and through the filter membrane.
The openings in the Micro-Pure layer are so small that any particle 1/2 micron (1/50,000 inch) or larger is removed.

Filtered water channels up through the rigid grid structure of the filter membrane and out of the system. |
