How Does the PURE TECH 2000 System Work?

The PURE TECH 2000 incorporates a combination of our PUR-GRAV, PUR-REZ, PUR-CARB, and PUR-CLEAR filtration technologies in the PURE TECH 2000 Water Filtration System. The combination of these media's are finely tuned to the conditions of your specific water supply and will provide you with a solution for your water quality needs.

PUR-GRAV is a medium based gravel used to filter out sediment and larger particles from your water supply, as well as provide support for the riser tube in the center of the media tank.

PUR-CARB, a dual carbon media is designed to remove chlorine, taste, and odor from your water supply by absorbing it with its extremely porous surface area. This process results in a cleaner, more refreshing tasting water.

PUR-CLEAR, a cleansing media with anti-bacterial properties, removes volatile organic compounds, lead, and is a final polish to the water. The black fiberglass media tank blocks the sun and helps the PUR-CLEAR keep the system from growing algae inside the unit.

PUR-REZ, which is an ion-exchange filtration media, removes any hard water causing sediments in your water supply. As water containing various sediments and dissolved solids passes through the system, our positively charged PUR-REZ filtration media attracts any negatively charged hard water ions and exchanges them with positively charged soft water ions.

How Does the PURE TECH 2000 System Clean Itself?

After a predetermined* amount of water passes through the PURE TECH 2000 Water Filtration System, the system needs to clean itself. The PUR-GRAV needs to be back-washed to release particles and sediment trapped after being removed from the water supply, the PUR-REZ media begins to take on a negative charge, the PUR-CARB must be back-washed to release its supply of trapped chlorine removed from your water supply, and the PUR-CLEAR must be back-washed to release the trapped unwanted contaminants removed from the water supply. To ensure your system maintains performance and efficiently removes unwanted contaminants from your water supply, the system must regenerate, cleaning itself and replacing all of the negative particles it has picked up with positively charged ones. It does this by back-washing itself with a positively charged solution which "fluffs" the media allowing trapped particles to flush out of the filtration media's and replenish the system with needed positive ions. The PURE TECH 2000 Water Filtration System uses an industry leading 17.5 lbs of down pressure when cleaning the system to ensure a more thorough cleaning and flushing the contaminants down the drain. As an added safety precaution, the brine tank also contains a safety float valve to ensure it never takes on too much water at once preventing overflows.

*System is programmed based on water hardness, chlorine amounts, and water usage

Untreated Water Effects

Municipal water is treated with chemicals such as chlorine to prevent bacteria from growing within the water supply while traveling to your home. However, many of these chemicals remain in your water even after it reaches it's destination. These chemicals may give your water supply a bad taste or odor, forcing you to compensate by using more of products you add to water.

Hard water reduces the efficiency of water-using appliances. Water containing hardness causes water heaters to use nearly 20% to 30% more energy than a water heater using softened water. Appliances operating with hard water may need to be serviced or replaced more often.

Bathing with hard water leaves a soap residue that clogs the skin's pores causing excessive dryness, itching, irritation, and the need for lotions. Hard water enhances the effect of psoriasis, eczema, and other skin conditions. Hard water dries hair out causing split ends and the increased need for conditioners and treatments. Chlorine can also dry out your skin causing itchiness and dandruff. It can cause your hair to become dry and brittle actually stripping the hair of natural oils used to protect hair from damage caused by daily wear.

It takes 50-70% more coffee and tea when using hard water to adequately flavor beverages. Hard water causes pasta to stick together and vegetables to lose their color and nutritional value. It takes more of anything that dissolves in water for flavor to penetrate through the hardness in water.

Continued washing in hard water causes your colors to fade and whites to look gray and dingy. Your clothing wears out 30% to 40% faster in hard water and requires the need of more soap to clean. Soap scum is left behind in your clothes, making the material feel harsh and scratchy.

Dishwashers lose efficiency because of scale build up that clogs pipes and lines. Dishes have streaks and water spots that dull their appearance. Hardness molecules cause detergent to be less effective and the need for more detergent to clean your dishes

PURE TECH 2000 Benefits

The PURE TECH 2000 Filtration System removes chlorine, bad taste, and odor from your water, providing you with sweet, aesthetically pleasing drinking water that is free of chemical additives. You can have drinking water that is even better than bottled water quality, directly from your faucet.

No scale forming minerals to clog your pipes and your appliances will be free of solidified rock. A water heater using soft water saves nearly 20% to 30% more energy than water heaters using hard water. Appliances operating with soft water will work more efficiently and last longer.

Soap residue will rinse off completely, and allow the natural oils produced by your body to moisturize and soften your skin. In fact, after using the PURE TECH 2000 Water Filtration System, you will find that you no longer need to use lotion or moisturizers to prevent skin irritation.

With the PURE TECH 2000 Filtration System you will use 50% to 70% less Coffee, Tea, Sugar, Juices and other household items that you currently add water to. Pasta doesn't stick together, and your vegetables retain their color and vitamins.

You'll find that your clothes will remain brighter, your towels softer, and clothing will last 30% longer. Save money on soap and other cleaning supplies. With soft water you will use 20% to 30% less detergent and will no longer need to use fabric softeners.

Dishwashers will run more efficiently without scale build up to clogs pipes and lines. Dishes will have a clean appearance without streaks and water spots to dull their appearance. You will use less detergent without hardness molecules that forces detergents to work harder in order to receive desired results.
