Mega Countertop Water Filter system
eliminates the impurities typically found in tap water to
offer you great tasting and pure drinking water. It is also
very attractive and economical. The famous Crystal Quest 6
Stage Filtration system is a truely robust system and
effectively removes hundreds of contaminants from water.
This solid state water filter uses the latest technologies
that blend the adsorption capabilities of coconut shell
activated carbon with Eagle Redox Alloy®. This combination
has been tested to boost filtration capacity to remarkable
levels.
Making Alkaline

The filter is
designed to last between 1 - 3 years. You can tell when the
filter needs changing because it will either stop working or
slow to trickle. This unique water system is great for
homes, apartments or office use.
Installation
The Crystal
Quest Mega filter is quick and easy to install. follow these
simple instructions:
|
|
|
Check
your thread type |
outside
threads: no adapters needed |
Inside
threads: select which adapter to use |
-
Remove
aerator from your faucet on which the filter will be
installed
-
Determine
the type of threads on your faucet. If your faucet has
outside threads then no adapters should be needed. If
your faucet has inside threads then you will need to
select the correct adapter and washer and screw then
into the faucet and tighten manually. The adapters
included with your Crystal Quest Mega filter will fit
most faucets.
-
Screw the
diverter valve onto the faucet, turning swivel collar to
tighten. Make certain that the gasket is positioned
securely between the diverter valve and the faucet or
adapter. Rotate diverter valve stem to desired position.
The swivel color may need retightening.
-
Turn on the
water then turn the diverter handle to send water to the
filter system.
Enjoy!

contact time means better filtration.
Crystal
Quest's 6 Stages of Filtration:
Stage
1: Water flows through pre and post one - micron
filter pads (1 micron equals 1/25,000th of an inch), which
removes suspended particles such as silt, sediment, cyst (Giardia,
Cryptosporidium), sand, rust, dirt, and other un-dissolved
matter.
Stage 2 and 3,
water flows through a bed of media made of a special
high-purity alloy blend of two dissimilar metals - copper
and zinc (Eagle Redox Alloy® 6500, and Eagle Redox Alloy®
9500.)
Eagle Redox Alloy® is a major advancement in water treatment
technology that works on the electro-chemical and
spontaneous-oxidation-reduction (REDOX) principles. Chlorine
is instantaneously and almost inexhaustibly oxidized. Tests
on Eagle Redox Alloy®/GAC cartridge have shown 99+% chlorine
removal even after 20,000 gallons of water passed through
the filter. In comparison, carbon cartridges of comparable
volumes drop below 90% effectiveness after only 4,000
gallons. This is an important consideration.
Iron and
hydrogen sulfide are oxidized into insoluble matter and
attach to the surface of the media. Heavy metals such as
lead, mercury, copper, nickel, chromium, cadmium, aluminum,
and other dissolved metals are removed from the water by the
electrochemical process. They are attracted to the surface
of the media, much like a magnet. The media inhibits
bacterial growth throughout the entire unit. In fact, it has
been shown to be reduced up to 90%, eliminating the need for
silver, which is commonly used in carbon-only filters
(silver is considered a pesticide by the EPA and, as such,
must be registered with them). Is copper or zinc added to
the water in any significant amount? On 2.3 ppm chlorinated
water, <0.05 mg/l copper and only 0.46 mg/l zinc were
measured. The EPA aesthetic levels are 1.0 mg/l for copper
and 5.0 mg/l for zinc. Both zinc and copper are essential
minerals for good health - the FDA recommends a daily intake
of 15 mg of zinc and 2 mg of copper.
Stage
4, water flows through ion exchange resins,
reducing heavy metals such as lead, copper, aluminum, and
water hardness.
Stage 5,
water flows
through granulated activated carbon (GAC). GAC is
universally recognized and widely used as an effective
adsorbent for a wide variety of organic contaminants, such
as chlorine (99.9%), chemicals linked to cancer (THM's,
benzene) pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, volatile
organic compounds (VOC's), PCB's, MTBE's and hundreds of
other chemical contaminants that may be present in water
causing bad taste and odors in your drinking water.
Carbon is extremely porous and provides a large surface area
for contaminants to collect. Carbon-only filters must also
use their capacity for chlorine removal, resulting in a
shortened life. They also may use a bituminous coal carbon,
which is good at removing chlorine, but not as effective at
removing chemicals. We use a high-grade coconut shell carbon
that is most effective at removing chemicals. Coconut shell
carbon provides a significantly higher volume of micro-pores
than either coal, wood or lignite based carbon. As a result,
it is more effective than other carbon types in removing
trihalomethanes (THM's) and other chemicals from municipally
supplied water. Since our REDOX media removes the chlorine
before it reaches the carbon, the carbon capacity is not
wasted on chlorine and is free to concentrate more
effectively on organic contaminants.
In stage 6,
water flows
through another one-micron filtration pad for further
reduction of undesirable particles. The end result is a
great reduction or total elimination of a wide variety of
contaminants.

It can be
easily back washed. Semi annually back washing of the unit
not only ensures balanced filtration and eliminates the
potential for channeling, but also back-flushes the unit.
Optional: Washable Pre-filtration
Filter
Washable
Pre-filtration Filter. Specially designed for use with any
kind of water system with an unusually large amount of
sediment that can clog up the water filter. This pre-filter
helps remove the sediment, thus enabling your filter to work
more efficiently and extend the lifetime of filters. It is
installed between the water filter and the tubing. No tools
are necessary for installation. Filter elements are easy to
replace. Inside is a fine stainless steel filter and an FDA
approved 4 micron filter that is easy to clean out.
