Amazing unit removes chlorine taste & odor, as well as sediment.

This unit does an amazing job removing the chlorine taste & odor, as well as sediment from the whole homes water supply.

It seems another city is in the news every day with people complaining about unpleasant chlorine smells & tastes.  This is an article from a city near me: http://www.burnsville.org/index.aspx?NID=917
  
This unit's installation is similar to that of a water softener.

If you are budget minded, this unit will save you money in refrigeration water filters, bottled water, cleaning supplies.

We are very happy with the resulting water quality.

We like the little extras in the design:  Energy Star rated power adapter, reassuring light on unit showing us that it is doing its job.

WOW! How can it be?

To those of you who know nothing of water filtration or the widely varying techniques used to filter it. Fist note at the bottom of the description it says the filtration is cosmetic. This means it removes setiment, it obviously has carbon in it since people are having issues with carbon permeation. It would be great if Sears actually told you in the video the mechanisms used in the filtration process, Also don't be fooled by the reviewer who states that Reverse Osmosis wastes 2 gallons of water for each gallon of useable water. This simply isn't true with the newer models and definitely not true with other types of filtration. Not to mention this system back flushes, which means it also wastes water. Second an RO unit removes setiment, salt, chlorine, lead and many many other unwanted contaminates this unit DOES'T. Most likely this unit is using Coconut husk coated with carbon which is why it continues to leach carbon into the water and why people are reporting their water still tastes bad. Carbon is used to absorb chemicals from the water, it doesn't however remove any elements (lead, mercury, copper, vandium and the like) and back flushing only washes out the setiment, it does absolutley nothing for the carbon as the carbon will not release any chemicals from simply being rinsed it will only absorb more chemicals during the rinse which is why it's used to absorb the chemicals in the first place. I hope this helps anyone considering purchasing this unit.
