Are your products NSF certified?
The majority of our cartridges are certified by NSF International. This certification means that the contaminant reduction claims certified are true and accurate, the materials of construction do not add anything unwanted into the water, that the system is structurally sound, and that advertising claims are true and accurate. This certification provides assurance to the user that the system has been independently evaluated to confirm its performance. The certification is displayed on the cartridge's label along with the claim(s); for example, chlorine reduction for 1,000 gallons. The majority of our certified products have been submitted for testing under NSF/ANSI Standards 53 and 42. For further information on NSF certification, please contact Pentair Everpure Technical Service at +35725720762. Certification information can also be located directly on the NSF website, www.nsf.org.
How can I prevent scale in my steamer?
Scale is caused when dissolved minerals, usually calcium and magnesium, are deposited as a white, flaky solid on to the heating elements of your steamer. This material acts as an insulator which increases energy usage. Over time, this can cause your equipment to fail altogether. Pentair Everpure offers several products designed to reduce or prevent scale formation. One product is the Pentair Everpure Kleensteam® system, which reduces scale buildup. Another alternative is the ScaleStick®. The ScaleStick contains a special Hydroblend™ that inhibits mineral scale deposits in low flow water-fed equipment. Our MRS line of reverse osmosis products also remove minerals that cause scale. To determine how much mineral is in your water, it’s best to have your water tested.
How is Pentair Everpure treated water better than tap water?
Municipalities have a primary objective of ensuring safe water. They can use a variety of technologies, but most all use some form of disinfection, either chlorine or chloramines. Unfortunately, chlorinated water has a distinctive off-taste and smell.
While municipal water treatment plants do meet USEPA minimum requirements, they do not remove all contaminants nor do they filter for taste and odor.
Water always contains some dissolved mineral, and mineral is not removed by water treatment plants. This mineral causes hard scale in equipment that heats or freezes water, causing increased energy costs and reduced equipment life. Pentair Everpure offers products that reduce scale buildup.
As water travels from the treatment plant to your location, it can also pick up contaminants from older distribution piping systems.
Cysts are microbial living organisms (protozoans) that can be resistant to chlorine disinfection. Cysts have been known to cause health problems. Examples of cysts are Cryptosporidium and Giardia.
Not all water contaminants are bad, such as minerals, which Pentair Everpure filters do not remove. However, many contaminants such as chemicals, gases and particles can affect water's appearance, taste and smell. Some can even cause health problems.
Pentair Everpure removes chemicals like chlorine, along with dirt, rust particles, asbestos, small living organisms called cysts, and more, leaving you with crystal clear, clean and great-tasting water.
Why would I need a prefilter on my water treatment system?
Our quick-change filters remove contaminants as small as 0.5-micron by mechanical means (see individual system specification sheets for performance claims and FIFRA registration information). Microns are extremely tiny, in fact a human hair has the width of 40 microns. This means our filters are very effective at removing many contaminants. However, if your water is particularly dirty, we recommend placing a prefilter in front of your system. Prefilters are typically 10 to 25 microns, allowing them to remove the larger particles that might prematurely plug your system. Many of our systems offer a prefilter option.
Do your cartridges reduce chlorine?
Yes, the Pentair Everpure cartridges that contain any carbon media such as Micro-Pure® carbon, carbon blocks, and/or Granular Activated Carbon will reduce chlorine and improve your water's taste and odor. The label states that the cartridge reduces chlorine taste and odor along with its capacity. Also check our catalog for cartridges with regard to more specific chlorine reduction capacities.
I have water stains on my sinks and equipment.
Rust/orange. Dissolved, or ferrous, iron, although harmless, can cause problems with appearance and reddish-brown staining. High concentrations of iron can affect the color of beverages and the appearance of vegetables cooked in water. Dissolved metals such as ferrous iron can be removed with special filters, reverse osmosis or by softening, depending on the amount of metal contamination. Ferric iron are particles that can be removed with mechanical filtration.
Black. Excessive manganese in water causes staining of household fixtures, and can impart objectionable metallic taste and red or blue-green color to the water supply as well.
Green. These stains are usually the result of corrosion of copper plumbing, although copper can come from other sources as well. There are two simple methods of reducing copper in your water. The first is to flush your pipes by running the water for 30-60 seconds before using it. A second method is to install a point-of-use water filtration system that is NSF International certified for reduction of one or more heavy metals. Green color can appear in clear filter bowls. This is the result of harmless light algae growth, and can be removed by sanitation.
How can Pentair Everpure help my operation be more “green”?
Restaurants have discovered a great revenue stream from selling premium bottled waters. However, there are many drawbacks to prepackaged bottled water:
Energy is consumed to manufacture the bottles, contributing to greenhouse gasses.
Prepackaged bottled water often travel great distances to get to your operation, wasting fuel and increasing pollution.
Bottled water takes up valuable space in your operation.
There is significant waste associated with the bottles.
We offer products that allow your operation to move away from bottled water and all the drawbacks it brings, while still generating revenue.
How often should I change my filter cartridges?
In order for our filters to perform as represented and to provide the best quality water possible, it is essential that filters be replaced periodically. The frequency of filter changes depends upon your water quality and your water usage. For example, if there is a lot of sediment and/or particulates in your water, then you will have to change your filters more frequently than a location with little to no sediment. Be sure to replace your filters whenever you notice a decline in the performance, whether it is a drop in flow rate and/or pressure or an unusual taste in the water.
Prefilter: The prefilter (coarse) cartridge should be changed when it becomes dirty to within 1/8" of the core or when you see the outlet pressure gauge fall into the red zone. Check the pressure gauge only when the equipment is calling for water.
Submicron Cartridges: The cartridges should be changed at the first occurrence of a) the gallon rating stated on the label, b) every 6 months, or c) the pressure gauge needle falls into the red zone while your equipment is calling for water.
ScaleStick®: The Everpure ScaleStick™ needs to be replaced before its Hydroblend™ compound is completely used up.
