Claryum® 3-Stage Filter Max Flow

Aquasana AQ-5300+ 3-stage Max Flow filter is suitable to use with municipal water (tap
water).
The water in Bangkok municipality is safe as the treatment facilities from which the water
comes from has a World Health Organization benchmark for its quality and is carefully
monitored. Water quality standards of MWA follow the Guidelines for Drinking-Water
Quality of WHO (WHO, 2006). Water quality

Water quality standard of Nampapa Lao. The standard of water produced by the factory is guaranteed and valid according to the authorization of the Department of Food and Drug and Mineral Industries according to WHO standards. In addition, our research laboratories have been monitored and reviewed in four main urban centers such as Mao Water Plumbing Plant, Water Treatment Plant, Cao Bang Khai Water Treatment Plant, Dong Kong Waterworks Factory, which is 98 points according to the Safe Water Plan.

Depending on your existing skills and experience, you can follow the instructions and
installation video. We recommend hiring a professional to install your filter. Installation
does require drilling into your pipes which is not recommended for individuals unfamiliar
with plumbing and permanent appliance installation. Please read through the owner’s
manual carefully before attempting to install the system and watch our video.

We recommend replacing the cartridges after six months to prevent the growth of bacteria
in the system. 

No, and actually, purified water is not as healthy as filtered water. Purified water undergoes reverse osmosis or distillation, which strip everything out of your water – not only the contaminants, but also the healthy, natural minerals. Our system uses selective filtration designed to reduce contaminants from the water and leave in the natural healthy minerals like calcium, potassium, and magnesium.

We have designed this system to minimize the environmental impact of our replacement
elements, which are over 95% biodegradable carbon. Our company will recycle the filters
for you, but we do not cover the shipping cost to return the filters back to us. In reality, the
environmental impact of shipping the filters back to us outweighs the good of recycling. To
recycle the drinking filters yourself, remove the ends of the filters, recycle the plastic parts
(which are appropriately numbered) and put the carbon either in your compost pile or
garden (carbon is good for plant life), or just throw it out (since the carbon degrades quickly,
and is a positive component in a landfill).

To install an under counter system, you can remove the existing sprayer or soap dispenser
on your sink and install our faucet in its place. This option will not damage or permanently
modify your plumbing. When you move out, you can easily remove the system and
reconnect your plumbing back to normal. If you do not have an existing hole in your sink
from a sprayer or soap dispenser, we also have a countertop drinking water filter that
conveniently screws on to most kitchen faucets.

The most common size is 3/8″ which originally comes with the system purchase. In rare
cases some customers may need a 1/2″ T-fitting which we don’t carry and you will have to
source yourself.

The faucet that is included with our systems requires a 1/2″ hole.

TDS is the acronym for Total Dissolved Solids, the amount of dissolved minerals and metals present in water. TDS meters tell you the concentration of dissolved minerals and metals, but are not an accurate measurement for contamination. Aquasana products reduce and remove harmful TDS like lead, but selectively retain or replace healthy dissolved solids like calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Aquasana OptimH2O comes standard with a 1-year remineralizer designed to replace healthy calcium, magnesium, and potassium lost in the reverse osmosis process.

BPA stands for Bisphenol-A, a contaminant found in most plastics. BPA can adversely affect
your health if consumed at high levels. Aquasana drinking systems do not contain BPA, and
our filtration process reduces existing BPA.

Hard water is more of a nuisance than a health risk, and is not necessarily contaminated.
Hard water is generally safe to drink, after it has been properly treated.

Having soft water just means you have a lower concentration of dissolved minerals in the
water (primarily calcium and magnesium). Soft water does not mean clean water. Your
water can be soft and still contain contaminants.

Selective filtration is the process of sub-micron filtration, micron filtration, adsorption and
ion exchange, all of which selectively reduces chemicals, heavy particulates and most
dangerous heavy metals from the water while maintaining healthy minerals like calcium,
magnesium and potassium.

All of our drinking water systems use the same Aquasana Claryum® filtration technology.
The 3-Stage systems include a 20 micron pre-filter before the two Aquasana Claryum®
filters. This pre-filter increases the capacity of the system to over 2,000 Liters for the 3 Stage
Under Counter AQ 5300. In addition, it improves flow rate in high sediment areas. The 3-
Stage+ Max Flow system adds even more capacity for over 3,000 liters of filter life and a
44% increase in flow rate at 2.73 liters per minute.

We recommend that you use the faucet provided. We have extensively tested the system
with the faucets included. The faucets are NSF Certified to have no lead content. In addition,
they will not impart any unwanted chemicals into your water. If you choose to use another
faucet, we recommend that you have a plumber install the system to ensure no leakage
occurs. We also recommend that you install an NSF Certified faucet to ensure the health
benefits of your new Aquasana water filter.
