Taste and Odor Filter (Carbon)
Unpleasant tastes and odors caused by chlorine or organic substances, such as decayed vegetation and run off, are adsorbed by top
quality activated carbon. The filter will automatically backwash to a predetermined schedule. This frees the bed of accumulated
impurities and readies it for operation again.
Multi-Media Filter (Sediment)
Suspended particulate matter, such as clay and silt, which gives water a cloudy appearance is trapped in the filter bed to produce
clean, clear water. A variety of gravel and sand facilitates more thorough backwashing and prevents channeling. Periodic backwashing
cleans the bed.
Neutralizing Filter
The neutralizing filter contains blended media which raises the pH of acidic water and neutralizes its corrosive characteristics. In
addition to protecting pipes, plumbing fixtures and appliances, this filter also facilitates the removal of iron and manganese by raising
the pH. This enables an iron filter to be used. Periodic backwashing cleans the bed. Additional media may be required six months to
two years after installation, depending on the water’s pH.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Operating Temperature Range = 34° to 110°F (1° to 43°C). Operating Pressure Range = 20 to 120 psi (1.37 to 8.27 bar). The manufacturer reserves the right to make product
improvements which may deviate from the specifications and descriptions shown above, without obligation to change previously manufactured products or to note the change.
CAUTION: These products are not intended to be used to treat water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
NOTES:
(1)
The Service Flow Rate given will not exceed a pressure drop of 15psi. Peak flow rates are intended for intermittent use only (10 minutes or less).
(2)
Dimensions of cylindrical tanks shown are diameter

How Your Automatic Filter Works
Raw water enters your home through the main supply line, enters your filter and passes down through the filter media. Impurities such
as turbidity and sediment (MM) and organics (AC) are removed from the water. The filtered water then flows up and into your
household water lines.
The neutralizing filter (NE) is designed to raise the pH of your water to eliminate corrosive characteristics. For example, a pH of 5.5 can
be raised to 7.0 which is neutral. When the water is neutralized, it is then possible to remove the iron with the addition of an iron filter.
