I installed a carbon block chlorine filter in the beginning of the year to help my one kidney wife. Chlorine and chloramines from the water dept have been found to cause problem with kidneys ,if you believe the web. Better safe than sorry. After a few months the block filter was clogging (Pelican filters are not inexpensive) and rinsing them off doesn't work so we invested in a Pelican sediment filter in-line before it. My advice is to buy the combination filter system of sediment and carbon block in the beginning. It's a little more costly to buy them one at a time than to get them together and easier to install if bought in a set . My sediment and chlorine filters are now installed and working fine. The water is crystal clear and tastes great. If you don't have a whole house filter and saw what you were drinking, you would buy one right away.

I sold them to the plumber that installed my softener and RO because he said I didn't need the pre filter and extra filters.

We invite you to watch the videos below to learn more about your water and how you can benefit from installing a Premium Pelican System in your own home. Pelican Water is the leader in premium whole house water filtration and salt-free systems. In this day and age it now more important than ever to filter your water, protect your pipes and appliances from the negative effects of hard water.
Is your water Safe?
Learn about the problems we are facing today with our limited drinking water supply. Also learn about the Pelican solution for your family. Learn how chlorine and chloramines are absorbed through your skin and into your foods, including how to remove them from your water. Water is one of our most valuable resources and its time to start treating that way.
Salt Water Softeners and Reverse Osmosis
Learn about the affects of salt-based water softeners and how they work. Also learn about Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems and how they work. Many people who have a salt or potassium-based water softener do not realize the damaging effects it can have on our planet and our bodies over a period of time.
Safeguarding your water
Learn about the benefits and advantages of owning the Pelican Combo Series. The EPA says it is up to you to filter your water in your home. Adding a filter to your home is the first line of defense against harmful chemicals and byproducts. The Pelican NaturSoft® system offers a green alternative to water softening that will protect your biggest investment: your home, from hard water limescale and the damaging effects of hard water.
Q. What is the pre-filter system? |
The Whole House Pre-filter System reduces particulates down to five (5) microns in size. Routine replacement of this 5-Micron pre-filter media will increase the effectiveness and extend the life of your water filtration system. With average use, each filter is effective for approximately 6-9 months. The pre-filter system removes particles from the water that are the size of a red blood cell or 20 times smaller than a human hair.
|
Q. Why is the pre-filter housing blue and not clear? |
The pre-filter housing is blue for good reason. Having a clear housing allows light to penetrate the housing which can cause algae to grow in the pre-filter housing. A blue non-transparent housing prevents the light from coming in contact from the water, thus the possibility from algae forming from light exposure.
|
Q. Where does it mount? |
The entire pre-filter system mounts to the wall with the bracket and screws provided with the Pelican Water System. The entire pre-filter system is approximately 7 1/4" Wide x 13 1/2" High, very compact and easy to mount.
