Whole House Water Filter Purifier System, Transparent 20” Housing with Presser Relief Button, 1” Inlet/Outlet & 5 Micron Sediment Water Filter Cartridge with 3 Replacement Filters

A whole house water filter purifier system is a comprehensive water treatment solution designed to purify water at the point of entry into your home, providing clean and safe water for all household uses. These systems typically consist of multiple filtration stages that target various contaminants found in water, such as sediment, chlorine, heavy metals, bacteria, and other impurities.

1. Pre-filtration: Water first passes through a pre-filter stage, which removes larger particles like sediment, silt, and debris. This helps prevent clogging and extends the lifespan of the subsequent filtration stages.
2. Activated Carbon Filtration: Next, water usually passes through one or more activated carbon filters. Activated carbon is highly effective at removing chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pesticides, herbicides, and other organic contaminants, as well as improving taste and odor.
3. Reverse Osmosis (Optional): Some advanced whole house systems may include a reverse osmosis (RO) stage for additional purification. RO membranes can effectively remove a wide range of contaminants, including dissolved solids, heavy metals, bacteria, and viruses, producing exceptionally clean water.
4. UV Sterilization (Optional): In some systems, water may pass through a UV sterilization chamber after filtration stages to kill any remaining bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms. UV light disrupts the DNA of these pathogens, rendering them harmless.
5. Post-filtration and Conditioning: After the primary purification stages, water may undergo additional filtration or conditioning to further enhance its quality. This could include additional carbon filtration, mineralization, or pH balancing.
