education themselves on the quality of the water used in their home
and how best to improve the quality of the water their families use

Woodstock Hardware's CleanWater For Life
Program was designed to help meet
our customer's water treatment and filtration needs. This program
consists of three parts:
As the demand for cleaner water grows,
Woodstock Hardware is often asked about the different styles of water
filters available for use in the home or office. There are several
styles of water treatment devices available on the market today.
The most common styles are listed below, along with a brief description
of each.
Point-of-Entry
(POE) System
These systems typically treat most of the water entering a residence.
Point-of-entry systems, or whole-house systems, are usually installed
after the water meter or pnuematic tank.
Point-of-Use
(POU) System
These systems typically treat water in batches and deliver water
to a single tap, such as a kitchen sink faucet or an auxiliary faucet
mounted next to the kitchen sink. The following information contains
a brief explanation of different POU systems and points to consider
when determining which style of a system will best suit your needs.
The list is ordered from easiest installation/operation
to more difficult or complex installation/operation and should not
be construed as any type of recommendation.
Personal
Water
Bottle |
This
type of product consists of a bottle and a filter. The filter may
be integrated with the push/pull cap of the filter bottle or may
be integrated with a straw. |
|
| Pour Through |
In pour-through products,
gravity causes water to drip through a pitcher, which is usually
stored in the refrigerator. They typically have a lower capacity
(i.e. can filter fewer gallons |
|
| Faucet Mount |
This type of filter
is mounted on an existing kitchen sink faucet (usually replacing
the aerator or installed immediately before the aerator). A diverter
is usually used to direct water through the system when treated drinking
water is desired. |
|
Counter-Top
Manual Fill |
This system is usually placed on
a counter and filled by pouring water into the system and activating
it for a batch of water. (A manual fill distiller is usually considered
to be a Counter-Top Manual Fill.) |
|
Counter-Top Connected
to
Sink Faucet |
This product is usually
placed on a counter and connected by tubing to an existing kitchen
sink faucet. The treated water dispenses out of a return tube from
the kitchen faucet, or the treated water is dispensed from a spout
on the system. |
Plumbed-In |
This type of system is usually installed under the sink and requires
a permanent connection to an existing water pipe. The filter water
is dispensed through the existing sink faucet. |
Plumbed-In to Separate Tap |
This product installs in the same manner as plumbed-in
systems (above). However, the filter water is dispensed through an
auxiliary faucet mounted next to the kitchen sink. People who live
in apartments may not want to drill a hole in the counter top |
