The Aquasana Drinking Water Enhancement System

Click for product brochure

Ultra high quality drinking water at the convenience of tap water for only 9 cents a gallon!**

This product represents a new era in home water treatment. Independent laboratory tests have documented this system’s ability to reduce contaminants more effectively and economically than other home water systems. Contaminant reduction claims have been evaluated and certified by the California Department of Health Services for accuracy.

Aquasana’s twin cartridge, multi-stage filtration process uses a combination of the most effective technologies available, mechanical filtration, adsorption and ion exchange.

This patented process selectively filters out specific contaminants while allowing the natural minerals to remain, creating the healthiest, best tasting water possible.

The "A" cartridge…filters out sediment and turbidity first, tiny microscopic particles that can cause cloudiness and unpleasant taste and odor in water. The "A" cartridge also filters out chlorine, the most concentrated and the most competitive chemical in our water. This allows the following stages in cartridge "B" to focus on the more difficult contaminants like lead and synthetic chemicals.

The "B" cartridge… is where the final stages of filtration take place. Lead is filtered out by a complex ion exchange process where lead ions are replaced with potassium ions. This process is highly effective and also enhances the natural mineral balance of water. Potassium is one of the minerals that gives water a natural spring water taste and a neutral pH.

Next is the most challenging and possibly the most important stage, the adsorption of synthetic chemicals, like herbicides, pesticides and industrial solvents, (see Performance Data Sheet ).

The "B" cartridge is also a 0.5 micron mechanical filter effective for chlorine resistant microscopic organisms like cryptosporidium and giardia, two common water borne parasites that can cause flu like symptoms for most, but can also be fatal to small children and the elderly.

Filter cartridges last for 500 gallons and should be replaced every 6 months.

The result is a refreshing, great tasting, healthy supply of drinking water at the convenience of your own kitchen faucet for only 9 cents a gallon.

(A & B filter cartridges are included and last for 500 gallons/ 6 months.)

** 9¢ per gallon is calculated at a cost of $45.00 for the replacement filters.

* All V.O.C. testing was performed using chlorinated tap water with a TDS (total dissolved solids) level of 300 ppm and a turbidity content of .14 NTU instead of de-ionized water in order to demonstrate the filters ability to reduce contaminants under real life conditions. Most water treatment device evaluations are performed using de-ionized water which is a considerably less challenging test method* All V.O.C. testing was performed using chlorinated tap water with a TDS (total dissolved solids) level of 300 ppm and a turbidity content of .14 NTU instead of de-ionized water in order to demonstrate the filters ability to reduce contaminants under real life conditions. Most water treatment device evaluations are performed using de-ionized water which is a considerably less challenging test method.

The Aquasana-4000  Water Enhancement System was evaluated to a test capacity of 1000 gallons, 200% of the rated capacity of 500 gallons, to allow for a considerable safety margin. The filter cartridge should be replaced every 6 months to ensure peak performance. Results shown are at end of 1000 gal. cycle.

No other home water filtration system, at any price, has ever performed better than AQUASANA!
