ODAK K500 (cont’d)• Accepted for use aboard

interstate carriers & is registered with the “International Association of Plumbers and Mechanical Officials." – Water treatment units exclusively

designed to meet all U.S. Governments Interim Drinking Water Standards

– Product construction made entirely of F.D.A. approved material

– All laboratory results are made available on demand

Whole Home Filtration

• The ODAK Whole House Water Treatment System improves water quality

• Providing clean & clear water– Reduces bad tastes and

odors• Reducing chlorine

– Often used as a disinfectant by municipal water suppliers

• Reducing dirt, algae, rust & large particulate matter

• Leaving in healthful dissolved minerals!

Shower Heads & Bath Ball

Shower Heads• De-chlorinating shower

filter– Specially-formulated filter

media effectively reduces 90% or more of chlorine from shower water

– Converts into an environmentally safe and harmless soluble zinc chloride

• Changes in the way your hair and skin feel including...– Healthier, younger-looking skins– Softer, more manageable hair– Relief from dry skin and scalp– Less fading on color-treated hair

Multi-Pure Crystal Bath Ball • Crystalline Quartz technology

Differences inWater Filter Technologies

• Solid Carbon Block Technology

• Reverse Osmosis• Activated Granular Carbon• Distillation• Mixed Media• Ceramic Filters• Carafes/Pitchers• UV Treatment• Ion Exchange Treatment

(Water Softeners)

Differences in Water Filter Technologies (cont’d)Solid Carbon Block Technology

• Water is forced through the pores of the densely compacted solid carbon block filter– Combination of mechanical filtration,

electro-kinetic adsorption, and physical/chemical adsorption take place to reduce a wide range of contaminants.

• Convert chlorine to harmless chloride ions (Removing chlorine taste and odor problems, reduce particulate matter and a wide range of contaminants of health concerns)

• Does not remove healthful, naturally-occurring minerals, require no electricity, and do not add salt or silver to the water.

Reverse Osmosis• Process that forces, by the

application of pressure, the water to pass through a semi- permeable membrane that rejects contaminants suspended in the water.

• This system reduces heavy metals and minerals (including healthful, naturally-occurring minerals)

Differences in Water Filter Technologies (cont’d)Activated Granular Carbon

• Water flows through a bed of charcoal granules which traps the particulate matter, adsorbs some chlorine, and reduces taste and odors

• If the granules are not impregnated with silver nitrate (which is considered to be poison), the granular bed may become breeding grounds for bacterial growth.

• For aesthetic treatment– Reduce some chlorine and

particulate matter.

Distillation• Water is heated to boiling and

turns to vapor, leaving behind contaminants

• The water vapor enters a condenser and is cooled and returned to a liquid state.

• Process does kill cysts (giardia, cryptosporidium).– However, VOC’s and

trihalomethanes, because of their volatile nature (“volatile” meaning that these chemicals can be evaporated and then re-condensed into a liquid state), are not effectively reduced by distillation

Differences in Water Filter Technologies (cont’d)

Mixed Media

• This type of filter is especially engineered for specific contaminant reduction.– For example, KDF filters

reduce chlorine well while ATS filters reduce lead well.

– These filters show a high performance against the specific contaminants, but not against other contaminants.

Ceramic Filters

• Use process whereby the water is forced through the pores of the ceramic filtration media, providing mechanical filtration only– This type of filter can reduce

asbestos, cysts (if the pores of the ceramic media are one micron or smaller), and particulate matter.

– Ceramic filters cannot reduce VOC’s, pesticides, trihalomethanes, or lead.

Differences in Water Filter Technologies (cont’d)

Carafes/Pitchers• The “pour-through” types of

filters are mainly taste and odor filters.

• Some are effective against lead and/or chlorine.

• The internal filter is usually a mixed media or granular carbon.– These filters do not reduce other

contaminants of health concern.– Since the carafe can only hold

approximately 2 or 3 quarts, there is a limited supply of water.

UV Treatment• Water passes through a chamber

where it is exposed to ultra-violet radiation.

• Very turbid water can reduce the effectiveness of this type of treatment.

• This treatment is effective against many bacterial contaminants but is not effective in reducing cryptosporidium or other contaminants of health concern, VOC’s, asbestos, trihalomethanes, and lead.

Differences in Water Filter Technologies (cont’d)

Ion Exchange Treatment (Water Softeners)

• Exchange anions or cations on a “resin” bed for cations or anions of the contaminant that needs to be reduced (usually heavy metals or minerals like lead or mercury).

• Waters softeners are neither filters nor purifiers and are used only to change the water hardness.– Softeners put sodium into the water in exchange for magnesium

or calcium ions.– Recommended that water softeners be by-passed when installing

a water filter.– Most softeners must be professionally installed.
