CuZn UC-101 Water Filter
Description
Under Counter Water Filter
Chlorine or Chloramine?
Extensive Case Studies
{tab=Product Information}
The UC-101 water filtration system works beneath any home or office sink to filter up to 10,000 gallons of cold water on demand! Using a combination of patented trace minerals (Copper-Zinc) which has been tested to NSF standard 42 and 61, and coconut shell carbon. Unlike carbon only filters, bacteria can’t grow inside the bacteriostatic CuZn filters. The UC-101 filter is maintenance free and installs in about 15 minutes, hooking up to the cold water supply – when you turn on the cold water it’s all CuZn pure!
this filter includes a 5 micron particle filtration and will filter chlorine, lead, heavy metals, herbicides, pesticides, many types of pharmaceuticals, sediment, algae, molds, scale, bad taste, odors, and other undesirable contaminants that may effect the quality of your water supply.
This filter includes 1 micron absolute particle filtration stage to remove bacteria cysts such as giardia, cryptosporidium & other chlorine resistant bacteria cysts. Just like the KR-101N, it will also filter chlorine, lead, heavy metals, herbicides, pesticides, many types of pharmaceuticals, sediment, algae, molds, scale, bad taste, odors, and other undesirable contaminants that may effect the quality of your water supply.

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.
