Overview
Thank you for your purchase of a state of the art Water Treatment system.
Your new Filter-Pure UF3 system is equipped with a unique swivel valve in head push button assembly. This allows for
a simple and sanitary push button filter change that does not require you to turn off the water source to the filtration
system.
This three stage system is equipped with a sediment prefilter, a high quality carbon block filter and the Ultra Filtration
membrane.
The sediment filter reduces sand, silt, sediment and rust particles that may be in your water. The second stage is a
heavy duty lead and volatile organic chemical reducing carbon filter block. This specially formulated block is capable of
reducing lead as well as harmful Volatile Organic Chemicals (See performance data sheet for complete list of VOC’s).
It is estimated that VOC’s are present in one-fifth of the nation’s water supplies. These water contaminants can enter
ground water from a variety of sources including localized use of herbicides and pesticides, gasoline or oil spills, leaking
underground fuel tanks, septic system cleaners, and chemicals used in the dry-cleaning industry. The third stage is our
state of the art UF Hollow Fiber Technology membrane.
Ultra filtration is a membrane filtration process which uses standard home water pressure to push water through its
semi permeable membrane. Suspended particles and materials of high molecular weight are unable to pass through
the 0.1 Micron (Nominal) UF membrane, allowing only fresher cleaner water and dissolved minerals to pass through.
Historically this separation process has been used in large municipal water treatment plants and hospitals; however
through advances in technology it is now available to you as a powerful under sink water filtration plant in your home.
Ultra filtration is capable of running at low water pressures, does not require a separate water holding tank, does not
alter the pH of your water, and does not require electricity. Due to this the Filter Pure UF 3 provides a continuous supply
of premium quality drinking water directly to your tap
System Maintenance
Just because you can not taste it, does not mean that it is not there. Many contaminants in the drinking water are unde-
tectable to the taste. Additionally, over time if you do not replace the filter elements, other bad tastes and odors will be
apparent in your drinking water. This is why it is important to change your filters at the recommended intervals as indi-
cated in this system manual.
When replacing any of the filter elements, pay special attention to any cleaning instructions. Should you have any further
questions, please call our customer service/technical department at 800-752-5582.
