We are looking to buy a whole house filter system.
I have high Nitrates.
What harm can Nitrates do?
What kind of system do I need to filter out Nitrates?
I am serviced by a well that produces 12 GPM at 50 PSI. My house is 2500 sq. feet.

Initial reply: We need the water analysis before providing a suggestion.
A local water technician might be your best choice.

The reason I contacted you to ask what kind of filter will filter out nitrates is because you advertise the sale of water filters.

Last December I ordered 3 water filters for a Big Blue filter.

The number was 155121 PP30-BB

The sizes are 4 1/2″ x 10″ it’s 30 micron - Pleated Polypropylene.

This filter no longer appears on the list of options. Is there a different number that replaces this filter.

Also, I would like to try a smaller micron filter (10 micron?) - what filter would work?

Thank you.

As you stated, the 30 micron PP30-BB is no longer available.

However you may wish to consider the R30-BB which is!

KX Technologies holds many patents and trademarks in custom water filtration technologies and systems. According the Kx technologies, formerly known as Kx Industries, below are some of their innovations in the filtration technology:

First to provide extruded activated carbon block filters, First to present miniature ”critical health claim” faucet mount and refrigerator cup water filter. They were first to introduce PLEKx water filtration. Kx Technologies came up with the first refrigerator cassette water filter and first installed refrigerator air/odor filter and many more.

The company was formed in 1989 originally as a LP (Limited Partnership) between Exxon Chemical Corp. and KT Corp. Marmon Water LLC acquired the assets of KX Industries LP in ‘07, with the business going forward as KX Technologies LLC.

The MATRIKX water filter Line of Carbon Water Filters are a great deal for much less than many different brands.

A water softener is a fantastic piece of water treatment equipment. If it’s Properly applied, water softeners would remove hardness yielding brighter clothes, remarkeable soap savings, softer hair and skin, etc.

But in many applications, standard water softeners will remove small amounts of Iron. Unfortunately, certain characteristics of the treated water may allow iron to pass right through a water softener staining many fixtures in the home.

We are currently using the model CP5-BB water cartridge and find that we need to replace it every two weeks in order to maintain a minimal water pressure.
I viewed all of the filters that are available for the 4 1/2”x10” “Big Blue” and I was wondering which one might offer us a greater amount of time between changes.
FYI, in addition to the “Big Blue” we also have an ultraviolet water purification system and constantly providing excellent quality and innovation. are therefore not so much concerned about bacteria as much as the silt and sediment problem that we are experiencing. Thank you for your anticipated assistance in this matter.

CP5 series from Pentek has been modified to a newer model. It is now the ECP5-BB filter instead.

subject: A true 1 micron filter.

Comments: I would like to know if a pleated sediment filter is a true one micron filter and is it rated to remove cysts?
I have found that there are great differances in 1 micron filters and am looking for one to
remove sediment as small as 1 micron on initial installation.
Some are only one micron after the filter gets saturated with a given amount of sediment.

It depends what you want removed from the water.
If it’s sediment, it will do. If it’s cysts, it will not.

Pleated Cellulose-Polyester; Polypropylene; etc. are Sediment filters.
For cysts, a carbon type filter is needed.

Thanks for helping me with the GE smartwater gxrv10abl01 replacements.:
The faucet in that system has a long neck.
I need one and I can’t find it on the GE site, but GE sells one like that w/ the
next system up.
Can you show me with one or where to get it???
It needs to have an integral air-gap.
Again, thanks in advance

People might sometimes get confused on what is Total chlorine, and what is Free chlorine. Here are some details that might be of help.

The chlorine that is free and available does the vital work of killing bacteria and removing contaminants. When free chlorine comes in contact with contaminants, such as soap, ammonia, or other organic compounds that contain nitrogen, it’s called combined chlorine, or as others call it: chloramines. In water of pools and spas, this type of chlorine has very little ability to sanitize, and also has no oxidizing ability. You may think of combined chlorine as a spent bullet.

Reverse osmosis (RO) has become a common home water treatment method for drinking water that might be contaminated.

The method of purifying water by reverse osmosis is used by many people these days, to simply purify their water and remove salts and impurities which would result in improving the taste and odor of the fluid. Reverse Osmosis rejects bacteria, proteins, sugars, particles, and dyes that have a molecular weight of more than 150 to 250 Dalton.

The OGWDW (which stands for Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water), with its many partners, ensure that americans all over the land have safe drinking water and protected ground water.

OGWDW, along with the EPA’s 10 regional drinking water programs, oversees and ensures implementation of the Safe Drinking Water Act, which is the national law safeguarding tap water in America.

These days, drinking water suppliers provide consumer confidence reports that describe where the drinking water comes from, and what contaminants may be found it the water. You can read the water quality report online, or you may contact the water supplier to get a copy.

By July First of each year, consumers should receive a consumer confidence report, or drinking water quality report from the local water supplier.

U.S. Water News Online reports about the City Of New York Government seeing a Car Wash facility in Queens NY, as the possible source of contaminated water.

The city tested water drawn from a well and used by a car wash in Queens, to determine if it might have contaminated the water in many neighborhoods, with a chemical used by auto body repair shops.

The DEP of NY (That’s the Department of Environmental Protection) claims that tests have shown falling levels of tetrachloroethylene, a chemical also known as PERC.

If you home drinking water comes from a municipal or city water system, then the tap water you drink comes through a real maze of filtration procedures before it reaches your faucet. The water enters into the main water system without any purification at all, from where it’s passed through a filtration process of sand, synthetic floss, fine gravel, or all 3 combined.

This filtration process removes sediment particles, and some cloudiness. Further down the pipe, Granular Activated Carbon take harmful toxins out of the purified water, in a system procedure known as chemical filtration. The final filtration stage is biological water filtration. Some water treatment plants also have their purified water go through plant life, to remove (absorb) nitrates and other nitrogen from the water.

A similar filtration process may be seen in home aquariums.

In many areas around the world, waterborne diseases such as typhoid fever, gastroenteritis, cholera, dysentery, and infectious hepatitis would kill several hundreds of children each and every hour of the day. In addition to this horror, billions of work productivity hours are lost each year.

In many developing countries, the luxury of tap water is not an option. About 2 thirds of humans on earth get drinking water from outside their dwelling.

To address this health and energy issue, an effort was set upon by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Indoor Environment Program to introduce a UV water purifier that would work in developing countries.

The device to provide a durable and inexpensive unit that can be setup locally and maintained easily. The result: UV Waterworks.

Another unit with a twist, to Ultra Violet Purification.
