GrowriteUSA Grow2O purification systems remove the impurities and toxins from your water supply while leaving your water balanced, with naturally occurring minerals, and ready for gardening. Compare this with RO technology which wastes 3-5 gallons of water for every gallon created, requires electricity, and most importantly strips the water bare of any minerals. This stripped, unbalanced water becomes very aggressive and seeks to replenish its own vitality by leeching minerals from the nearest substance, namely the very plants you are trying to protect.
The best water for any type of gardening is purified and filtered natural water using a technology that protects the mineral balance of your plants.The most important step you can take to maximize your plant growth, besides choosing the right strains of plants and the proper equipment for indoor gardening, is to know and protect your water supply! Grow2O systems will address all disinfection products and bi-products, herbicides and pesticides, organic and inorganic contaminants, hardness, TDS, and help to balance the PH, all without removing the natural minerals. Grow2O systems can also be customized to your specific water supply if test results are submitted. Contact GrowriteUSA today for more information.
CuZn’s Gardening Models are broken out based off local conditions and the gardening application. The models marked chlorine are designed for chlorine treated municipal water, the models marked chloramine are designed for chloramine treated municipal water or well water.
Essentially the models marked chlorine or chloramine that do not list TDS reduction are best for gardening applications that are not hydroponic. Both the Chlorine Model and Chloramine model offer wide spectrum filtration of Inorganic (heavy metals, etc.) and Organic (herbicides, pesticides, disinfection by products, etc).
The Filtration Media in the chlorine models is reticulated KDF-55 and Acid Washed Coconut Shell Carbon, which perform best with contaminants found in water that is treated with chlorine.
The Filtration Media in the chloramine models is reticulated KDF-85 and Catalytic Acid Washed Coconut Shell Carbon, which perform best with contaminants that are found in chloramine treated waters and well waters.
All of our systems offer 1 Micron Absolute Filtration.
The models marked TDS reduction further reduce total dissolved solids, which is only ideal for hydroponic growing operations. Hydroponic gardening requires regular additions of water soluble additives, as a result, reducing total dissolved solids is best. When growing only in water not soil, you have to be careful to avoid over saturating the water, which can prevent nutrient uptake in this scenario.
For non hydroponic applications, reducing TDS further is not required. The minerals that remain after passing through the filter are considered beneficial to plant growth in soil scenarios.

GPM: Gallons Per Minute
Standard Output: VIQUA’s standard output UV lamp. They generate less heat, but require longer system lengths and exposure time to equal the dose delivered by other lamp types. Ideal for low flow applications. Minimal maintenance costs and heat radiation; full microbiological protection.
High Output: Higher UV power output; ideal for medium to high flow applications.
Amalgam Lamp Technology: For ultimate UV output; typically needed in high flow applications or NSF Class A installations. Due to higher power requirements, it is the preferred lamp technology for light commercial applications or public facilities.
2X Lamp Life: Long life - 2X greater lamp life vs. standard and high output lamps.
2X Output: 2X greater UV-C output vs. standard low pressure lamp technology.
4X Output: 4X greater UV-C output vs. standard low pressure lamp technology.
Constant Current: Ensures stable UV lamp current regardless of power fluctuations.
Safety-Loc: A UV connector design that meets UL979 safety requirements. VIQUA connectors have a built in mechanism that breaks power to the UV lamp and prevents accidental exposure to UV light outside of the chamber.
UV Lamp: The part of the UV system that emits the 254nm germicidal wavelength of UV light. In VIQUA systems, there are 3 types of lamps: Standard Output, High Output and Amalgam.
VIQUA Standard Dose (30mJ/cm2): VIQUA’s uncompromising dose value used to compare all VIQUA systems that do not require NSF Standard 55 Class A certification. Typically used for residential systems. This has been established as an industry standard in the UV water treatment industry.
Connector: The molded connector that the UV lamp plugs into.
Controller: The electronic module that supplies power to the lamp as well as feedback information of the status of the UV system (syn. ballast, power supply)

THIS changes the molecular construction of hard water minerals to remove existing and future scale from forming in water pipes, hot water tank, dishwasher, washing machine, showers, drains, coffee machine and everything else your water touches.
For best results, check if your municipality uses Chlorine or Chloramine to treat your water.
