SCALE, TASTE & ODOR CARTRIDGES

Aries FilterWorks offers a propriety blend of a high capacity weak acid ion
exchange resin to reduce calcium and magnesium and with granular activated
carbon maximize the removal of chlorine. The ion exchange media reduces
hardness associated with alkalinity preventing water scale formation. Granular
activated carbon (GAC) that has been specially prepared for use in drinking
water filters removes chlorine and enhances the quality and taste of the drink­ing water. The media is buffered to provide pH balance.

APPLICATIONS

RESIDENTIAL USE -

These cartridges are an effective way to provide clean water for drinking water,
juices, coffee, and teas. Additionally, the water can be used to prepare foods
and mix infant formula. It eliminates the need for costly bottled water and
bottled water services. Aries FilterWorks cartridges can reduce or eliminate
taste and odor due to municipal chlorination and decrease metals that may be
in city, well water or distribution systems.

COMMERCIAL USE -

These cartridges are as an effective pretreatment of supply water to commer­cial grade brewing machines, ice makers, and beverage dispensing equipment
and water misters. Coffee and espresso machines benefit from the reduction
of scale formation on heating elements, thus improving the efficiency of the
machine and avoiding expensive service calls.

COMPONENT

ABOUT SCALE, TASTE AND ODOR REMOVAL

Water is a good solvent and picks up impurities easily. As water moves through soil and rock, it dissolves minerals and holds them in solution. Calcium
and magnesium dissolved in water are the two most common minerals that make water “hard.” The minerals responsible for hard water tend to form
insoluble salts, also known as scale. Formation of scale on heating elements reduces the efficiency of small machines. A point of use cartridge removes
scales by use of a weak acid ion exchange resin and in combination with GAC, removes chlorine to improve taste and odor.
