Point of Use
Water treatment or filtration is the most effective, efficient and affordable way to ensure high quality, great tasting drinking water for the home and office. It is critically important to be certain that the system chosen was designed to remove or dramatically reduce the contaminants or pollutants you may be concerned about or suspect in the tap water source.

Seychelle Environmental Technology's new Countertop Filter system has been tested to NSF protocol standards 42 & 53. It reduces or removes lead for 2,500 gallons (based on water quality) at .75 gallons per minute (gpm). It reduces both Giardia and Cryptosporidum of particles 1-2 microns at greater than 99.6% and particles 3-4 microns...99.98%. It is rated Class 1 for turbidity, chlorine, taste and odor reduction. SE1’s phenomenal one-micron filter is a powerful multi-function cartridge for residential and commercial purification systems.

Seychelle’s filter cartridge offers high-density pre-filtration, combined with high dirt capacity extruded activated carbon, providing several times greater life than other molded filters.

Seychelle’s NEW chrome countertop is attractive, convenient, economical and simple to use. This is the first time a countertop system has been able to offer a quick disconnect diverter that is easily attached and removed without tools. With this revolutionary Quick Disconnect diverter adapter, the user can receive great tasting, healthier water directly from the faucet.

Seychelle’s Water Filtration Systems Removes Up To 99.8% Of The Following Contaminants that can be found in Drinking Water...

●Chlorine and THM’s: most municipal water systems use chlorine to eliminate bacteria but studies have concluded that chlorine can react with organic material in water to form chemicals called TRIHALOMETHANES (THMs). One of the most noted THMs is CHLOROSFORM, which has been found to be carcinogenic.

●Industrial Chemicals: are deemed necessary in manufacturing, however, when ingested can result in increased risk of cancer and other illnesses, possibly death. Some industrial chemicals threatening the safety of our drinking water include polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polynuclear aromatics (PNAs), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as TCE, benzene and carbon tetrachloride.

●Lead: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that the heavy metal lead in drinking water can cause serious health problems, especially in children. At low levels, drinking water can cause serious health problems, especially in children. At low levels, ingestion of lead can result in reduced birth weight, premature birth, delayed or impaired mental and physical development. At high levels of exposure; anemia, kidney damage and mental retardation can occur. Other dangerous heavy metals include: aluminum, asbestos, cadmium, copper, copper and mercury.

●Radon: a naturally-occurring radioactive gas that has no taste, odor or color. Waterborne radon released into the air from showers, washers...can be inhaled and increase the risk of cancer.
Cysts: Protoxoan parasites, pathogens such as Cryptosporidium parvum and Giardia lamblia cysts in drinking water can cause severe vomiting, diahorrea and other flu-like symptoms. Hard-celled cysts are unaffected by chlorine.

●Pesticides and Herbicides: many agricultural chemicals like atrazine and alachlor are washed into groundwater sources. Many are toxic and associated with an ever-increasing number of health problems.

●Other contaminants include: silt, sediment…
“Few things are as insidious as bad water. It’s dangerous for you and your children, but you usually can’t tell if you have it. And if you do, you may not be able to find out where the problems are coming from. Water can carry some of our most serious diseases—typhoid, dysentery, hepatitis-yet still look clear in the glass. We may do battle over how we get our water and develop it, but we fear for its quality.” National Geographic Magazine, Special Water Edition, November 1993.
As population grows, so does the demand for water. Water consumption has doubled at least twice this century and will probably double again within the next twenty years.
In addition to the problem of water shortages and the demands of a growing population, there is still a greater on-going challenge...pollution.
