Air Water Purifier

Known as an Atmospheric Water Cooler

New on the market, for people with low yielding wells or no wells at all. We have finally come out with a system that requires no water supply into the unit. The moisture from the air is collected through a series of filters and then condensed into the unit, which runs through a series of cartridge filters, a UV sterilizer, and then separated into two tanks, one stainless steel tank for hot water and one plastic tank for cold water.

This unit will produce approximately 3-8 gallons of water per day, depending on the humidity in your area. Vancouver Island humidity runs around 33-55%. I just installed one in my own home, and in the middle of the winter with the woodstove going continuously, humidity is running at 44% and producing 5 gallons per day. There are two faucets on this unit, one for tea, coffee etc. And the water temperature is 204 degrees F. The other faucet is ice cold water. Both temperatures can be set by the homeowner.

This is the perfect unit for people that have a cottage, an office, a boat or even an RV. It's totally portable.

TAC Plus Salt-Free Conditioners

The TAC Plus is an extremely unique system that the water treatment industry has come up with. A lot of people do not like to use salt in their systems to backwash their softeners. Unfortunately, softeners require salt to backwash. The TAC Plus system requires no salt and is an extremely green system. To work properly, this system must have virtually no iron or manganese in the water. Otherwise, it will bind up the media in the bed. The system is designed strictly for hard water (calcium). The perfect match with this TAC system would be the Iron Plus system in front of it, which would remove your iron, manganese, and H2S (also a green system requiring no chemicals for backwash). The two systems work hand-in-hand and are a perfect match. We have installed a lot of these in greenhouses and other applications that do not want any sodium in their water that will affect the plant growth. The customers we have installed them for love them.

Iron Plus

The Iron Plus water treatment technology is very unique and extremely green. This new technology gets totally away from chemical injections and treatment systems that require chemicals to backwash their media beds. The Iron Plus system we have been installing to take the place of the typical greensand system, which requires potassium permanganate to backwash the media bed. This is old technology and the cost of pot perm is very expensive and has to be introduced into the system every three months. Not only that, it is a highly toxic chemical used to backwash the greensand filter and extremely hard to find dealers that will carry the product. We have now been introduced to the Iron Plus oxygen generator technology which uses natural air to oxidize the media bed which removes the following:

1. H2S (hydrogen sulfide, rotten egg smell),10ppm
2. Iron, up to 20 ppm
3. Manganese, 5 ppm

This media retains a higher flow rate with less pressure drop. It requires very little maintenance. This system does not require micronizers, venturis or any type of air injection system that can get plugged with mineral deposit from the raw water. The media bed will last between 10 and 15 years. pH does not affect the media bed with this system. Berm, which is another media used in oxygen regeneration, requires a high pH. Also, an added benefit is it requires no salt or chemicals to backwash the media bed. Backwash rates are extremely low and backwash times and water consumption are 1/4 of the typical time for a greensand filter.

We have installed many of these systems. The installations are very simple and the systems are absolutely trouble-free, with basically zero maintenance. An added benefit is that, because the air is introduced into the water, the water is enhanced with a lot of oxygen which is very good for your health. So as you can see, there are many benefits for this system.

Sanitizer

The Sanitizer is the newest technology in the world of water treatment. This gives you the maximum bang for your buck. This one filter will do the following, all in one system:

1. Removes hardness, iron, manganese and turbidity
2. Raises pH
3. Removes H2S, known as hydrogen sulfide gas (has a rotten egg smell)
4. Sanitizes its own media bed

This system is very unique because it not only removes the above but also disfinfects itself by converting the salt to chlorine and sanitizes the media bed. The salt is also used to backwash the softer media, that's used to remove the hard waters in your system. This system will take the place of four media tanks, resulting in huge cost savings. Backwash rates are lower because it is now only backwashing one media filter instead of four, and also this sanitizer will backwash every six or more days (up to 14 days),compared to a softener which backwashes every three days; you have a huge savings in salt and water consumption.

We have installed quite a few of these systems and our customers have been absolutely thrilled by the quality and improvement of their water. Not only have they got just the one filter doing the job of three others, the cost savings is significant.

Shur-Align Drop Pipe

The Shur-Align drop pipe's patented design allows for quick and safe installation for any submersible pump. The patented Shur-Align joint is an innovative and simplistic PVC pipe assembly design; it features a simple alignment and engagement, a beveled shoulder, quick makeup, watertight seal.

The entire joint, not just the coupling, is formed from schedule 120 PVC for maximum strength and durability, making installation of submersible pumps quicker and simpler.
