Mountain Pure® Filter Features:

Mountain Pure® Carbon Filtration Systems comes with a carbon filter cartridge that incorporates powder activated carbon and a bacteriostatic agent that protects it from bacteria growth. The quarter turn valve built into the head unit allows for easy replacement without the unwelcome mess usually associated with changing out filter cartridges.

• More efficient and clog resistant – unique filter media created by attaching powdered activated carbon and lead absorbent material onto a cellulose-free synthetic fiber matrix
• Filter removes 99.9% of particles over .5 microns
• Filter incorporates an anti-microbial agent to reduce bacteria
• Anti-scale media for protection against scale build-up on the faucet and inside of the hot tank
• 1250 gallon capacity lasts 1 year based on average usage
• Operates without wasting water like R.O. filters

Remove Lead: Filtering your water is especially important in order to remove lead. Household Lead in drinking water accounts for 10-20% of human exposure. Major sources of lead in your drinking water can be found in your home’s plumbing system. Lead can leach into your water from pipes, solder, and faucets. Homes built prior to 1986 may have 20% or more lead in their plumbing system. Lead can be found in newer homes as well. Until June 2014, the legal limit for “lead-free” pipes was up to 8%.

Absolute Filtration: One micron is 1/1000 of a millimeter. The diameter of a human hair is 50 microns, while the smallest that the naked eye can see is 20 microns. The Mountain ceramic is 0.9 microns absolute. Therefore, nothing larger than 0.9 microns will pass thru the filter. Aluminum, Lead, and Iron are heavy metals that are dangerous to the human body. The ion exchange media within the filter will reduce these dangers by 98.3%

On Demand: From a glass of water to gallons of water, the Mountain Pure® unit has water available on demand whenever it is needed. A reverse osmosis system lacks the capacity to fulfill your daily drinking demands.

Low Cost: Using only a maximum of two filters per year, the ceramic filter is cleanable! If it gets clogged up with sediment or rust, just remove the filter, wipe it with a scotchbrite pad and put it back in the housing. Plus, the Mountain Pure® unit wastes no water, compared to the reverse osmosis unit that wastes 3-4 gallons for every 1 gallon treated.

Retain Existing Minerals: It is widely recognized that most individuals don’t maintain the correct levels of essential minerals in their bodies. Reverse osmosis systems remove all trace minerals like Calcium and Magnesium completely. Do you want your water system to remove beneficial and necessary minerals?

Self Sterilizing: The ceramic filter incorporates a bacteriostatic agent that protects it from bacterial growth. The powdered activated carbon filter incorporates an anti-microbial agent that protects it from bacterial growth. No reverse osmosis system at present can claim that! Great tasting water when you need it, without waste, additional water costs, expensive bottled water, or electrical cost.

Chemicals: Most municipalities have taken care of herbicides/pesticides that may have made their way into the drinking water supply. The Mountain Pure® Water Filtration Systems will handle the trace chemicals which may or may not be present in your water.

The Mountain Pure® Water Filtration Systems do not require electricity and will work with extremely low water pressure. A reverse osmosis system will not work without regulated pressure due to the membranes’ workings. During power outages and water pressure loss, you can still use your Mountain Pure® unit.
