NOW AVAILABLE **
The new "off-white" EQ-10 Undercounter Water
Filtration System (same design and color as our EQ-10
Countertop) easily replaces the old "blue" EQ-10
Undercounter system. Filtered water is dispensed via the
high-quality lead-free, chrome bar, goose-neck style faucet. |

Installed under the sink, the
Equinox EQ-10 Undercounter system (similar to the original EQ-15 or EQ15 Undercounter system), offered by Vitasalus/Equinox
Products, is convenient and saves space. The unit
is designed for a 3-4 year or 5,000 gallon life, whichever occurs
first. This unit is constructed with materials made of 100% recyclable food-grade plastics that comply with FDA guidelines.
All components are injection-molded and threaded with O-ring seals to eliminate the use of glues and solvents.
A lead-free Vented Faucet is included to conserve water and enhance water pressure.
Combining a scientific principle with design engineering, the Vented Faucet helps protect your
undercounter unit from surges in municipal water pressure.
A prefilter and post-filter are also available for further reduction of
particulate present in certain water supplies. Although the
EQ-1O Undercounter system is designed to adapt to any existing
plumbing, installation by a licensed plumber is recommended.

Frequently
Asked Questions
Q: How long
does the EQ-10 Undercounter
system last?
A:
The unit
is designed for a 3-4 year or 5,000 gallon life, whichever occurs
first. The saturation of the media may occur faster in different
areas depending upon the condition of the water. Generally, it is
recommended that the unit be replaced when there is a noticeable drop in
water pressure and/or return
of off-tastes or odors.
Q: How does
the EQ-10 Undercounter system
work?
A: There are
3 stages. Please see the diagram below.
Stage 1
A special kind of activated carbon that combines the
absorption-rate capabilities of traditional carbon with the
enhanced properties of catalytic carbon. This
combination does a better job of filtering an organic compound
like Lindane (a common pesticide). The results are a
healthier and more flavorful water.
Stage 2
A superior blend of bituminous coal-based activated
carbon--plus the patented ATS® ceramic-sorbent media--reduces
lead, chlorine, and odors while producing pure,
natural-tasting water.
Stage 3
The patented dual-chamber flow design directs water upward
through the inner chamber and then downward through the outer
chamber for maximized media contact effectiveness. |
