Reverse
Osmosis Drinking Water System
A Perfect Choice for Drinking Water: Hydrotech’s advanced reverse osmosis drinking water systems are a natural and economical solution for providing your family with high quality drinking water. With a space-saving ultra slim profile, the system tucks neatly under your kitchen sink providing bottled water quality right from your very own tap.
With almost 2/3’s of the population not drinking enough water each day, having delicious water conveniently on hand can help keep you properly hydrated and feeling great. Cut down on sugary beverages and avoid symptoms of mild dehydration such as headaches, dry skin and daytime fatigue. Use for all your cooking needs. Perfect for coffee, tea, soups, and frozen juices.
Bottled Water Quality…Convenient & Affordable
No lugging heavy bottles, no cooler rental, no monthly bill, no hassle. For a typical family of four our drinking water system produces water at a cost of approximately $0.23 per day. Compare that to delivered bottled water at over $1.25 per day*.
Our systems offer a more advanced treatment process than typical entry level pour-through pitchers or faucet filters. At the heart of the system is a reverse osmosis membrane which removes impurities as small as an atom! Additionally, your water passes through a series of sediment and carbon filters – eliminating any unwanted tastes and odors giving your water a polished, fresh taste!
Erkens Water offers a complete range of drinking water systems to fit your needs and budget.
*Costs may vary by market and location. Based on recommended daily drinking allowance. Choose a System Just Right for You Hydrotech is one of North America’s largest suppliers of water treatment equipment. With over 40 years of experience, Hydrotech has been the leader in reverse osmosis drinking water technology; designing state of the art systems for residential and commercial applications.
Booster Pump
Raises the water pressure and maintains it at the ideal level for the system to operate at maximum efficiency. Recommended for use on supplies with low pressure or high concentrations of total dissolved solids (TDS). The pump is self-priming and whisper-quiet. It runs on a 24VAC transformer (included) from a standard 120VAC electrical outlet.
System includes: Flexible mounting plate, quick connect fittings and a pressure shut-off switch.
2510 Valve Chemical Free Iron Filters
Once installed, the chemical free iron filter requires little or no attention. It automatically removes soluble iron, sometimes called ferrous iron or “clear water”, precipitated iron, sometimes called ferric iron or “red water” and bacterial iron. It is safe and very economical because it requires none of the expensive or messy chemicals conventional iron filters use.
The chem-free iron filter features two major components: an air injector and a back washable filter containing special media. In some applications a contact tank or an additional pressure tank may be required for the chem-free iron filter to function.
The air injector adds a controlled amount of air to the water supply just before it enters the pressure tank. The air starts the iron removal process as the water sits in the tank.
The water’s pH is automatically raised to neutral or higher as it passes through the filter bed and a catalytic effect occurs between the iron and filter media. The iron changes into a colloidal state and is trapped throughout the filter bed. This produces an iron removal capacity four times greater than a conventional iron removal filter. The chem-free filter media remains unchanged at the end of the oxidation process and consequently requires no chemical regeneration. Periodic back washing of the filter bed flushes the precipitated iron to the drain and readies the filter for use again. The duration and frequency of back washing varies from 10 to 12 minutes every 4 to 12 days, depending on iron concentration and water usage.
Neutralizes acidic water
The chemical free iron removal filter’s patented process raises the pH of the water, improving the efficiency of iron removal. This has the added benefit of neutralizing acidic water.
Features
- Minimal operating costs - requires no chemicals for regeneration
- Attention-free operation removes iron concentrations of up to 35 ppm
- Conserves water - requires only occasional back washing using 10% of the water a conventional filter uses in regeneration
- Five year warranty on 2510 Noryl® control valve
- Heavy duty mineral tanks with 10 year warranty.
- Neutralizes acidic water
- Optional bypass valve
- Optional insulated tank jacket to reduce condensation.
