Sink filtration product for oral intake, drinking, cooking, ice-making, etc., to protect consumer against known or
unknown water issues or concerns. FUGAC250 (“better”) for carbon block filtration of chlorine and VOC’s, lead,
and cysts. UU250 (“best”) for the additional safeguard from bacterial, viral, e-coli and microorganisms. No storage
tanks, no limited supply, and no wasted water associated with reverse osmosis systems.
Sink filtration product for oral intake, drinking, cooking, ice-making, etc., to protect consumer against known or
unknown water issues or concerns. RU300 series for chlorinated municipal water. RU400 series for potable non-
chlorinated, well or municipal supplies. RU500 series optional for harsh well water. Add UV module for the addi-
tional safeguard from bacterial, viral, e-coli and microorganisms. Be aware that RO has specific issues and
drawbacks (ie: wasted water, limited production, storage tank space, very aggressive water), and has specific
applications, making these systems widely misapplied. Select the product that’s right for you.
Softeners
If water hardness is an issue, water softeners will soften the water through ion-exchange. This process substitutes
naturally found calcium and magnesium (hardness) minerals for sodium or potassium chloride (salts) and does not
filter the water. Water will spot less, wipe off easier, and prevent lime scale in pipes and water heaters. However,
restrictions on softeners due to brine discharge into your septic tank, salts, and wasted water are growing. Softeners
may also void warranties on other household products (ie: pools, spas, special finishes, etc.) Once softened, many
people do not like the slippery feeling of the water and reverse osmosis becomes necessary to remove the salt from
drinking water that the softener put in. If a softener is chosen, application on the hot side only is recommended. Ironically,
we make some of the most efficient metered softeners in the industry. Consider on hardness above 20 grains and use
on excessive hardness above 30 grains. Use EWS Series as an alternative to filter and physically condition water below
30 grains.
A Quick Reference of Systems and Combinations for Various Applications
Let us @ EWS, Inc. help you specify the correct product(s) for your application.
Know and understand your “city” water or have well water tested completely to specify the correct point of entry
system(s). Choose a filtration upgrade, at the sink, for consumption based on tested results, and/or additional needs or
concerns. A complete solution may use one or more products to satisfy an application.
High Oxidation, Purity Media Systems
For the removal of iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide. Installed at the point of entry, this is a removal of these problems, not
the trade-offs of ion-exchange. Automatic backwash with no brine discharge, no chemicals to add, and years between any
maintenance (media replacement) make these systems a must with wells having these pre-treatment issues.

EWS Series - The Environmental Water System
Whole Home Water Filtration and Physical Conditioning
Filters all the water to the whole home and offers the consumer an alternative to harsh salt softening. EWS
conditioning causes a physical change in how naturally found calcium and magnesium minerals react in the
water and on surfaces. EWS keeps these minerals in the water for a pure, fresh taste while helping solve
those problems associated with hard water. The result: less spotting, easier clean up, and prevents scale
build-up in pipes and water heaters without the damaging effects of salts. No slippery feeling. No brine
discharge. The best combination of whole home filtration and the alternative to salts and softening. Required
or chosen upgrade options: Sink units for specific removal needs or concerns.
EWS - The Leader in Whole Home Water Filtration
CWL Series - Whole Home Water Filtration Appliance
Great for filtration to the whole home of chlorinated water supplies, for drinking, cooking, showering, and bathing (great for
hair and skin) - all uses. Also used for non-chlorinated applications to safeguard water from VOC’s due to ground water
contamination. Use EWS Series to filter and physically condition water, if water hardness is an issue. Required or chosen
upgrade options: Point of use, drinking water system, or reverse osmosis for limited sink applications based on water
conditions or additional water concerns for drinking use.
