Why WHOLLY WATER ® The Ultimate Drinking Water Appliance is different...

I. NO CHANNELING...

Channeling is a common problem in water filters. Channeling is caused by forcing water through granular filter media to quickly making an open pathway to the other end of the filter. This leaves contaminants in the water unfiltered.

The WHOLLY WATER ® solution:

1. Large diameter slows water flow.
2. Four filter disk media bed separators. Each disk slows the water flow to spread it over the whole surface. This creates an even flow across the surface, preventing channeling at each stage.
3. Five separate filter beds. Each contains a different filter media. These media beds are of different sizes and densities. This changes and redirects water flow dynamics at each bed site.
4. Increasing the diameter filter beds, slowing the flow even more. This also increases the contact time in each filter bed, resulting in higher purity at each stage.
5. The final large coconut shell premium GAC filter bed is vibration-packed with a special machine to compress the GAC filter bed in place, followed by pressing the filter disk into place.
6. The pressure vessel itself is precision-designed for each filter disk to snap into place.
7. Uses GREEN TECHNOLOGY to make this water filter exceptionally environmentally friendly.


The results: pure drinking water.


II. WHOLLY WATER ® HAS 11 PATENT CLAIMS

The most important is the separated filter beds allowing for 5 to 7 separated filter beds in one pressure vessel. This exclusive feature allows engineering our multi-media selections to be arraigned in to maximize the best use of each media for unparalleled, superior results. Notice our 5-bed unit. The upper 4 filter beds are narrower. This is built into the design to increase the lift and turbulence of water flow in the back-wash cycle. Why? A good question...The filter media in these beds are all cleanable. A faster flow cleans better. The backwash is quick & easy by reversing the in & out water lines - open the long-reach water fountain at the kitchen sink, down the drain it goes.

The proof is in our certified, independent test results. No one else compares.

Our filter media are the purest, highest quality available. Four of the six are featured registered trademarks, one of which is patented. The fifth is the highest quality, premium-grade coconut shell GAC which has 2 times the contaminant removal capacity of regular coal base GAC.

*U.S. Patent 5,205,932
Trademark Reg. 1,727,385


III. EXCLUSIVE PUSH-BUTTON, SELF-CLEANING, BACKWASH CYCLE

WHOLLY WATER's ® patented, leak-free, quick disconnects.
These make the recommended every 3 month backwash quick and easy.
There is no mess, no cleanup, no messy filter replacement, and no costly filters to buy. No danger of bad water because you forget to change the filter.
WHOLLY WATER ® is a very HEAVY-DUTY Appliance that if you forget to backwash every so often, it's OK.

One owner forgot for 4 years. One day she discovered the video that comes with each unit. She watched it and realized she had not backwashed hers.
She became alarmed and called me about her concern. She thought she would need a new unit. She had no taste or odor, so I assured her all she needed to do was backwash it. She did and called me again expressing her delight.
The story doesn't end there. At the end of the 6-year warranty period, she called for a new replacement unit. I installed it in about 30 seconds, thanks to the leak-free, quick disconnects. Cost was less than half of a new unit price with the exchange. The old WHOLLY WATER ® can be repacked.
A new environmental twist to recycling - we can make it new again. To my surprise, this trade-in looked brand new! We removed the top which exposes the first filter bed; it was clean and bright as new. We put the top back on and tested it. This unit didn't need to be repacked. One of our local dealers was present and quickly inquired as to how much he could buy it for. He had a client who really wanted one, but not did not have enough money. She got her WHOLLY WATER ® complete with a brand new 6-year warranty at a very good price.

How can this happen?...This unit was in a home of 2 adults.
Let's assume they use 3 gallons of water per day.
The math:
3 x 7 days = 21 gallons per week
52 weeks x 21 = 1,092 gallons per year
6 years x 1092 gallons = 6,552 gallons

WHOLLY WATER ® is certified to NSF / ANSI Standards 53 (health effects) & 42 (taste & odor) to meet EPA requirements under the Safe Drinking Water Act by Terra Labs, an independent 3rd party laboratory -Water Analysis - on 17 EPA prime list contaminants all spiked in the test water at the same time. Tested to NSF / ANSI Standard 53 chemical challenge passed to nearly 78,000 gallons and NSF / ANSI Standard 42 chlorine taste and odor test at 2 parts per million @ a gallon per minute flow. Passed to a world-record 220,490 gallons.

So you see at 6,552 gallons of municipally treated water, and WHOLLY WATER's ® brand new, patented technology and heavy-duty capacity, it can still be like new after 6 full years of use.
To my knowledge, no other drinking water unit made can compare with purity,
true cost per gallon, and lifetime heavy-duty quality...
This, with no added cost after purchase.
