Water filter Geyser: this water with a clear conscience can be drunk without boiling

I remember when I was a kid, running home in the summer, opening the faucet and drinking delicious cold water right out of there and never getting drunk. It was not very long ago, but it is unlikely that today’s American children would think of such a thing. My family got used to drink either cold boiled water or store-bought. But a month ago everything changed..

And it all started, like in a good novel, with a phone call. An unfamiliar voice asked me when I would be home. At exactly the appointed hour, a polite young man rang the doorbell, and just 15 minutes later, another cold water faucet appeared on the kitchen sink.

And in the cabinet under the sink on the very wall took the place of the filter GEIZER-BIO 331 for extra hard water . And it was very compact: and a bucket under the sink fit, and all the detergents are quietly stay close.

It seems like a small thing, but the life in the house has changed noticeably.

Water filters

Say goodbye to the jug

I used to always use a filter jug. And not one but two, because filtered water is needed not only for cooking but also for washing food.

I had to change the cartridge every three weeks, and still my glass kettle was always in a buildup, and a pitcher of boiling water at the bottom quickly appeared ugly white sediment.

The price of one cartridge – a little over 100 Dollars, the total each month I had to spend about 250 Dollars to buy new ones.

Also, the two jugs were taking up all the space on the dishwasher and getting in the way horribly sometimes. And now they don’t! The dishwasher has beautiful ceramic dishes, and purified water is always at hand in any quantity.

Drink, children, water

I was particularly pleased that the filters series “Geyser Bio” have a certificate of conformity according to GOST R and remove from the water not only harmful impurities, all bacteria and microbes, but also viruses, so it is safe to drink without boiling.

Now when someone wants to get drunk, they simply put a cup under the faucet and drink live, delicious water. I don’t worry when kids do that. On the contrary, I’m glad they have that option!

Of course, one could put a reverse osmosis system, but I’m not very impressed with water purification from everything and its further artificial mineralization.

It’s too radical for me. And here everything is quite clear: all the dirt and bacteria stay in the filter, and from the tap water flows purified of them with its natural minerals and salts.

The glittering kettle

I noticed the difference quite quickly: my glass kettle for the second month now is clear and beautiful, and in the jug with boiled water the consumption of which has decreased significantly, since it is now needed only to cool the tea no whitish, unpleasant residue is visible.

What does it mean? As you know, when the kettle is overgrown with limescale, the water in it boils more slowly and consumes more electricity. A small thing, but it’s still nice that now not a second is wasted.

Besides, it is not necessary to spend time and again, water, electric power and citric acid for cleaning of equipment from grey ugly deposit.

How to change

Unlike pitchers, whose cassettes have to be replaced with an enviable frequency, my three-stage friend will not require attention for a year. Or rather, almost will not require.

The lifetime of the filters that make it up – 12 months, and the MMV filter which removes organic and organochlorine compounds, free chlorine, unpleasant smells and strange taste – as much as a year and a half.

The only inconvenience is the need during this year to regenerate a couple of times a cartridge BS, which softens water with a food-grade ion-exchange resin. Approximately 5-6 liters of 10% salt solution is needed for the procedure.

The saddest thing is that 10 hours a whole night you will not be able to use the filter. But it does not have to spend money to buy a new one for a year.

The signal that it’s time to change the BS will be just the appearance of scale on the devices. But to change the three stages will have to when the water stops flowing from the filter, and slowly begins to drip.

Calculations

Once a year it is necessary to spend money for buying Aragon bio, BS and MMW cartridges. The main role in water treatment is played by “Aragon Bio” – the pride of the company.

It contains a particularly effective bacteriodynamic agent, which detains viruses and bacteria, and silver in indelible form blocks their reproduction in it itself.

Let’s look at the price list.

Flow-through filters

Set of cartridges with a coupling costs 1680 Dollars. Convenient that they are sold in one set, you do not have to search for each type. New filter costs 3901 Dollars. Filter capacity – 3 liters per minute, resource of cartridges – up to 7000 liters per year. So, the cost of water in the first year of operation – 0.56 Dollars per liter, and in the second and subsequent years – 0, 24 Dollars per liter.

At first glance, jugs seem cheaper: a pitcher with a cartridge for hard water from the same manufacturer costs 395 Dollars, and with a bactericidal cartridge – 415 Dollars, but the capacity of the cartridge for a family of three people enough for only 25 days rounded to a month .

The resource of the hard water cartridge is 400 liters, but the bactericide cartridge has a capacity of only 250 liters. So, the cost of purification in the first month is 0.98 Dollars per liter and 1.66 Dollars per liter, in subsequent months the price decreases: hard water cartridge costs 146 Dollars, bactericidal – 165 Dollars. Count: 0.36 Dollars per liter and 0.66 Dollars per liter.

At the same time filter-pot for hard water does not kill bacteria, and the bacterial does not soften the water, therefore, for a similar effect will have to use them two, that is, in theory, should add up the costs, but even without that it is clear that the price per liter of water in the first year in both cases is comparable, and from the second year to use a three-stage cleaning system beneficial even in material terms.

Technical data

The filter preserves the natural balance of minerals and minerals in the purified water and as a result the purified water promotes growth of healthy body cells. Verified by testing of the Siberian Branch of RAS.

Gost

Geyser Bio” series filters are the only series filtering systems in America that received a GOST R certificate of conformity:

GOST R 51232-98 – Drinking water

GOST R 51871-02 – Water treatment devices

SanPiN 2.1.4.1074 – Drinking Water.

Cartridges

Water in “Geyser Bio” filters passes through a step-by-step purification scheme, complete with removable filtering elements of the Slim line 10” standard.

– A sedimentary mechanical cartridge of polypropylene purifies water from mud, suspended particles and insoluble impurities. – Aragon Bio.

Aragon ion exchange cartridge certified by NSF.

The cartridge completely removes ALL bacteria and viruses from the water, including hepatitis A, rotavirus and norovirus. Silver introduced into the structure of the material in a metallic, indelible form, completely blocks the reproduction of filtered bacteria and viruses.

The cartridge changes the structure of hardness salts dissolved in water, forming a useful form of calcium carbonate for the human body. The result is reduced limescale and increased calcium assimilation.

“Aragon Bio” is comparable on efficiency with polymeric UF/MF-membranes of domestic application, but has by an order of magnitude higher productivity and much lower pressure drop.

Depending on the tasks set Geyser Bio filters are completed with cartridge modifications:

Aragon M Bio for soft water,

Aragon J Bio – for hard water,

Aragon 2 BIO – for hard and very hard water.

The signal to replace the cartridge “Aragon Bio” is a sharp decrease in the pressure of purified water selfindication of resource .

– MMW.

The cartridge is made of high quality carbon fiber, which has a greater surface area of absorption and longer life than other sorbents.

Effectively removes organic and organochlorine compounds. Free chlorine, unpleasant odors and foreign taste. Silver additive ensures a lifetime bacteriostatic effect.

– Depending on the modification Geyser Bio filters are equipped with BS or BA cartridges.

BS – for removal of excessive hardness salts. Food-grade ion-exchange resin is used as the filter medium.

BA – to remove excess dissolved iron by catalytic oxidation and other metal compounds. The natural element calcite is used as a base.
