How a Central Water Filtration System Works

Normal operation

During normal operation water enters the Central Water
Filtration System and flows through several filtration
processes where tastes, odours and sediment* are reduced.

Refresh cycle

A Refresh cycle will automatically be initiated based on
how the controller has been programmed. The Refresh
cycle lifts and expands the media bed to rejuvenate the
media and then repacks the bed for continued use. During
the Refresh cycle, dirt, sediment, etc. are flushed from the
Central Water Filtration System down the drain.

Applications for a Central Water
Filtration System

• Do not use the Central Water Filtration System with

water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown
quality without adequate disinfection before or after 
the system.

• The Central Water Filtration System may not be an

effective treatment method for water sources with 
a hydrogen sulphide problem (rotten egg odour 
or taste).

• The Central Water Filtration System will not remove

iron and is not intended to replace iron treatment
equipment.

• Although the Central Water Filtration System has

sediment* filter capabilities, additional sediment
filtration may be needed in problem water
applications.

* As shown by independent third party test data.
