Reasons to Choose Pelican Water
Why choose the Premium Whole House Water Filter over other home water filtration systems? Quality, convenience, and cost. The system's large diameter tank holds a high level of carbon media, increasing the filter's performance and lifespan, while the replacement cost is a fraction of the cost of our competitors.
Ease of maintenance is built right into our home water filtration system. While water filtration systems require the replacement of the entire tank when the time comes to replace the system's filter, all you need to do with a Pelican Water filtration system is replace the media, with no need to call (and pay for) a plumber.

"Installation was easy. Pelican provided me with everything I needed to get the job done!"
Are you drinking chlorinated water?
Chlorine is a disinfectant used to kill bacteria, viruses, and protozoans often found in the sources of drinking water. While highly effective as a disinfectant, chlorine is technically a poison. Tap water may also contain chloramine, a chemical related to both chlorine and ammonia. The carbon media in a home water filtration system removes both chlorine and chloramine from your water supply.
Chlorinated water vs. filtered water
The main function of carbon filters is to remove the bad taste and smell from the drinking water. Carbon filters do not require a lot of maintenance, and with proper sediment filter changes and media changes, can provide the best tasting water. With improved taste, the filters also remove odor providing you with fresh tasting drinking water. They provide an excellent value for your money and definitely a better choice then bottled water.
Chlorine gives water a foul taste that is transmitted to coffee, tea, and any food prepared using water. Once you compare the taste of a hot drink made with filtered water to unfiltered, you realize just how much chlorinated water affects your enjoyment of food and drink. The difference is so striking high-end restaurants, chefs, and coffee houses use filtered water to provide the best possible taste for their products.
Cooking with chlorinated water
If you've ever cooked pasta in filtered water or made coffee or tea using filtered water you can definitely tell the difference. Chlorine is a chemical that is adsorbed into your foods and make your sauces and hot drinks taste foul. All of the top restaurants, chefs and even coffee houses use filtered water now so they can produce a quality product every time.
Showering with chlorinated water
Swimming in chlorinated pools can leave your hair limp and your skin dry and itchy thanks to the high amount of chlorine used to disinfect the water. Over time, chlorine in shower water produces the same effect.
Chlorine strips hair of the natural oils it needs for shine and body, leaving hair lifeless and brittle. You may find yourself using more conditioner to combat the effects of chlorine or notice that color treatments fade faster (chlorine is, after all, a type of bleach).
Chlorine damages your skin as well. A shower.s heat and steam encourages skin pores to open up. Chlorine then enters the skin through the pores, resulting in itch, dry skin or even allergic rashes.
Pelican Water's home water filtration system removes chlorine from tap water before it reaches your shower, freeing you from the damaging effects of chlorine.
If you need to eliminate the negative effects of hard water minerals while filtering your water of chlorine and other chemicals, then the low maintenance Pelican Combo home water filtration system and salt-free water softener is your answer.

"We bought our filter in February 2012. It was easy to install and has worked flawlessly. Now, our water tastes great right from the tap and there is no more scale buildup in our shower! One unexpected benefit is that my wife, who has suffered from almost daily migraines for over twenty years, now has very few headaches; they stopped within a few days of installation. Pelican has been a miracle for us! Thank you!" |

"We are delighted with our Pelican water system. My skin feels smoother, my teeth are whiter, the clothes and dishes are cleaner, and we can have a drink of pure water from any faucet in the house. The set up went smoothly too. The carbon dust didn't really accumulate in the toilets after the first night. I didn't clean the tanks until about a month later as there wasn't any problem. For us, it is part of our living a healthier lifestyle." |

Hopefully the water will taste better in time...
I've installed the PC1000 in a 3 bathroom home here in Orange County, California. Now, about 2-weeks after installation, I've noticed that although the water doesn't smell like chlorine anymore and its very clear in color, its got an "earthy" taste, as if the chlorine was hiding an underlying musty, earthy taste that is still there. Although I bought this system so that my family wouldn't have to but bottled water, they won't drink the tap water and continues on bottled water. I can understand why as the filtered water doesn't taste all that good. Hopefully its just a carbon-tank that has to "break-in", otherwise this may have bee a complete mistake purchase.

The representative I talked to before purchase and ordering was great. He answered my questions and made the purchase easy. The shipping was fast. The hook up for this filtering system was not extraordinarily difficult for me and probably would not be for the average DIY homeowner with common sense. I could tell the difference in my water quality almost instantly and I have only had it in for a couple of days so far. No more chlorine smell and dry skin caused by the disgusting chemicals added into the water supply by the city. I can now feel good about exposing myself to the water in my home. Well worth the money!

ELEVEN YEARS AND STILL GOING
I BOUGHT A PC1000SYSTEM ELEVEN YEARS AGO AND INSTALLED IT ON HOME. WATER NEVER TASTED SO GOOD. NO BAD ODOR, NO CHLORINE SMELL OR TASTE. I MOVED IN DECEMBER 2017 AND JUST PURCHASED A SECOND PC1000 FILTER SYSTEM FOR NEW HOME. WHY CHANGE PERFECTION. IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING A WHOLE HOUSE FILTER SYSTEM, MAKE THE JUMP. YOU WILL BE HAPPY.

Just What I have been looking for and....
at a very good price. A family member, a licensed plumber, installed the unit for me. He remarked that I got a very good price and was impress with the stainless steal housing, making the refill price cheaper also. After the soak period, we turn it on and it works like a charm. No loss of water pressure. The stinky chlorine smell gone. My hair, skin, houseplants and cats are all digging the improvement of cleaner, purer water. I was looking to mostly eliminate chlorine. This unit does that and more - was happy to see pharmaceuticals on the list too. My plumber added his own on/off valves even though the unit comes with those -- you will be from the photo attached.

Self Install Pelican Whole House Filter
My new Pelican whole house filter is working very well. I'm very pleased with the quality of the product. The support was very impressive as I had several questions along the way during my install. The product support staff were always willing to help and there was very minimal wait time on the phone. I also used their Email support system and received a timely response.
I installed my own plumbing using Pex pipe so that I could get everything the way I wanted and also to build a bypass system into the plumbing. The install took a full day over a two day period to mount and paint the plywood, build the Pex piping system, and then mount the system to the wall and plumb in the main lines. ISSUES: My lines had to be reduced to 3/4" the size of my main line. There seems to be no single fitting to go from 1" pipe thread (first filter input) to 3/4" pex crimp fitting. This required the use of a 1" x 3/4" reducer and a separate 3/4" pex to pipe thread fitting. These two brass fittings leak even though they were fitted with plenty of pipe dope. I'm hoping this will eventually heal its self. Another issue was that the head on the big tank was not tight. Even though I checked it prior to installation. A few days after the install it started to leak. I took the tank out and found that if I held it real tight at the bottom with my feet that I could get the head to tighten a little further. Reinstalled the tank and there was no longer any leak.

Great Features.
I'm happy with this product and it was easy to install with the installation kit I purchased. Patrick, the customer service person I talked to was very helpful and answered all of my questions. I also talked to Mike, a technician about the install and he was also very helpful. The PC600 does just what they said it would, my hair, scalp and skin is no longer scaly and itchy. I saw a difference right away.

The Pelican Premium Water Systems are wrapped in premium stainless steel to ensure long life, durability and unsurpassed quality ... Not to mention they look amazing!
| Up-flow versus Downflow Water Filtration Systems |
back to top |
The Pelican Carbon Series Whole House Water Filter Systems is an Up-Flow system, allowing you to change the filter media with a minimum of fuss. This doesn.t just save you time.it saves you money. Comparable down-flow home water filtration systems do not allow the consumer to replace filter media, as the homeowner would require special knowledge and tools to complete the task.
Down-flow water filtration systems often makes less effective use of filtration media because they have channeling issues. Channeling occurs because water takes the path of least resistance. Over time, water forms small channels in the media, and the water then flows through the same channels repeatedly. Channeling prevents water from reaching unexpired portions of media. As a result, a down-flow system is less effective at filtering chemicals from the water.
To combat channeling, the Pelican home water filtration system forces water up from the bottom of the tank in a swirling motion. This motion causes the carbon media to swirl as well, allowing the maximum contact between the filtration media and water. The result is a very efficient Up-Flow filtration system that eliminates the possibility of channeling.
Some companies require the periodic replacement of the entire media tank. Not only is this ineffective, it's also unnecessarily expensive. A Pelican carbon water filtration system only requires you to replace the media, not the tank.
Why do we only require media replacement when other companies insist on replacing the whole tank? To understand, you need to know a little about how Pelican's carbon media filters water. A Pelican carbon home water filtration system works through adsorption, the process by which suspended chemicals and contaminants water are absorbed by carbon media on contact. The carbon adsorbs dissolved contaminants without releasing any chemicals back into the water.
Eventually, a water filtration system's carbon reaches a point where it can no longer absorb any more matter and needs to be replaced. Pelican takes a cost effective and environmentally friendly approach to replacing filter media. Instead of replacing the entire tank, you simply remove the old media and insert the new.
Some companies insist on replacing the entire media tank and use scare tactics to convince consumers a new home water filtration system is required with each replacement. Consumers don.t just pay for the cost of the new tank and fittings.they also must pay a plumber to remove the old system and install the new one. From our perspective, that's like paying for a new car every time you run out of gas. It's not cost effective, it's not environmentally friendly, and it's certainly not convenient.
The Pelican Carbon Series Systems use an up-flow design and do not waste any water while filtering and softening/conditioning the water for your entire home. While other systems use a down-flow design requiring them to backwash once or twice a week wasting 100-300 gallons of water each time they backwash. The fact is that we cannot afford to waste one drop of water. Water is one the most important resources we have on earth.
The Pelican Carbon Series Systems eliminates the need for an electronic head for backwashing because of its up-flow design. No moving parts means less maintenance and no service calls for damaged moving parts that render the system unable to filter your water.

| Q. Does the Pelican Carbon Series PC600 Premium Whole House Water Filters pre-filter system remove COPEPODS from the water? |
Yes. Copepods are tiny crustaceans commonly found in reservoirs and public water sources. The little creatures range in size from 30 to 50 microns, meaning the largest are visible with the naked eye but small enough to move through many water filtration systems. This poses a difficulty if you eat a kosher diet (or if you just find the idea of tiny crustaceans in you water icky). The 5-micron prefilter provided with the Pelican Carbon Series PC600 Premium home water filtration system will remove Copepods. This type of water filtration system is approved for removing copepods by OU Kosher, the world's leading kosher certification program.
|
| Q. How easy is it to install the Pelican Carbon Series PC600 Premium Whole House Water Filter? |
The Pelican Carbon Series PC600 Premium Whole House Water Filter will be shipped pre-assembled (the tank comes pre-loaded) and Ready-To-Install which greatly simplifies the installation process and also reduces installation cost and time. Detailed installation instructions and supplied fittings make it easy to understand and install the filter system. Also, you or your plumber may contact our knowledgeable Customer Service Technicians for further assistance during the installation if necessary. 1-877-842-1635
|
| Q. Where should the Pelican Carbon Series PC600 Premium Whole House Water Filter be installed? |
The Pelican Carbon Series PC600 Filtration System is a Point-of-Entry (POE) system, or whole-house/whole home system, and is usually installed in your garage, basement, or water heater closet. The system can also be installed outside or buried in the ground in climates where the temperatures do note reach below freezing.
|
| Q. What is the cost to replace the carbon media inside the Pelican Carbon Series PC600 after 5 years of 600,000 gallons? |
The cost to replace the media for the Pelican Carbon Series PC600 is currently only $205.00 including free shipping. Replacing the carbon media instead of the tank makes the replacement process simple and very cost effective.
|
| Q. How often should I change the 5-micron sediment pre-filter? |
Approximately every 6 to 9 months, depending upon the actual amount of sediment or particulate matter present in your water supply. The pre-filter starts off white in color so it is easy to see when the pre-filter is dirty by looking at the color of it.
