How long does the V-5 Undercounter last?
The unit is designed to last for up to 3-4 years or 5,000 gallons, whichever occurs first. The saturation of the media may occur faster in different areas depending upon the condition of the water. Generally, it is recommended that the unit be replaced when there is a noticeable drop in water pressure and/or return of off-tastes or odors. There are no filter cartridges to change or replace, simply connect to kitchen faucet, and use it for up to 3-4 years or 5,000 gallons.
How does the V-5 Undercounter work?
The V-5's premium water filtration media, multi-stage and patented dual-chamber flow design maximizes contact-time and contaminant removal and/or reduction for a capacity of 5,000 gallons or up to 3-4 years. The V-5 Undercounter water filtration system is designed to address sediment and/or particulate matter, VOCs, chlorine, chloroform, benzene, pesticides, lead, iron, tastes, odors and hundreds of other potential contaminants and harmful chemicals that may be found in our drinking water. Please see the diagram below for more detailed information regarding the V-5's advanced filtration process.
Stage 1
A special kind of activated carbon that combines the absorption-rate capabilities of traditional carbon with the enhanced properties of catalytic carbon. This combination does a better job of filtering an organic compound like Lindane (a common pesticide). The results are a healthier and more flavorful water.
Stage 2
A superior blend of bituminous coal-based activated carbon—plus the patented ATS™ ceramic-sorbent media—reduces lead, iron, chlorine, and odors while producing pure, natural-tasting water.
Stage 3
The patented dual-chamber flow design directs water upward through the inner chamber and then downward through the outer chamber for maximized media contact effectiveness.
