CRYSTAL QUEST®
Mega Stainless Countertop Water Filter system has the
same filtration capacity of regular
CRYSTAL QUEST®
Mega Countertop unit; the stainless steel model just
looks more refine. It eliminates the
impurities typically found in tap water to offer you great tasting and pure
drinking water.
It is also very attractive and economical. The
famous Crystal Quest 6 Stage Filtration system
is a truely robust system and effectively removes hundreds of contaminants from water.
This solid state water filter uses the latest
technologies that blend the adsorption capabilities of
coconut shell activated carbon with Eagle Redox Alloy®. This
combination has been tested to boost filtration capacity
to remarkable levels.
Making Alkaline Water:
After filtering your water with you
CRYSTAL
QUEST® Water Filter, use one of our
Alkaline Booster Drops to make alkaline water.
CRYSTAL QUEST Options:
you can get one of three
different models of the
CRYSTAL QUEST®
Mega Countertop Water Filter system; each having a
specified filtration capacity.
-
CRYSTAL
QUEST® Mega Multi-Stage Plus filters
up to 10,000 gallons (1-3 years)
*
-
CRYSTAL
QUEST® Mega Multi-Stage Ultra filters
up to 20,000 gallons (2-4 years)
*

*
The filter is designed to
last between 1 - 3 years. You can tell when the filter
needs changing because it will either stop working or
slow to trickle. This unique water system is great for
homes, apartments or office use.
Installation
The
Crystal Quest
Mega filter
is quick and easy to install. follow these simple
instructions
 |
 |
 |
Check your thread
type |
outside threads:
no adapters needed |
Inside threads:
select which adapter to use |
-
Remove aerator from
your faucet on which the filter will be installed
-
Determine the type of
threads on your faucet. If your faucet has outside
threads then no adapters should be needed. If
your faucet has inside threads then you will need to
select the correct adapter and washer and screw then
into the faucet and tighten manually. The adapters
included with your Crystal Quest
Mega filter will fit most faucets.
-
Screw the diverter
valve onto the faucet, turning swivel collar to
tighten. Make certain that the gasket is positioned
securely between the diverter valve and the faucet
or adapter. Rotate diverter valve stem to desired
position. The swivel color may need retightening.
-
Turn on the water then
turn the diverter handle to send water to the filter
system.
Enjoy!

CRYSTAL
QUEST ® Utilizing the latest technologies in water
industry, coupled with 30 years of manufacturing
expertise, we provide you with the most effective,
healthy, great-tasting water, conveniently, at the most
affordable price. Our products are attractive, easy to
install and use, and removes more than 500 contaminants
from water. The unique design allows for a substantial
amount of filtration media enabling more contact time
with the water. More contact time means better
filtration.
Crystal Quest's
6 Stages of Filtration
Stage
1 Water flows through pre and post one -
micron filter pads (1 micron equals 1/25,000th of an
inch), which removes suspended particles such as silt,
sediment, cyst (Giardia, Cryptosporidium), sand, rust,
dirt, and other un-dissolved matter.
Stage 2 and 3, water
flows through a bed of media made of a special
high-purity alloy blend of two dissimilar metals -
copper and zinc (Eagle Redox Alloy® 6500, and Eagle
Redox Alloy®
9500.) Eagle Redox Alloy® is a major
advancement in water treatment technology that works on
the electro-chemical and spontaneous-oxidation-reduction
(REDOX) principles. Chlorine is instantaneously and
almost inexhaustibly oxidized. Tests on Eagle Redox
Alloy®/GAC cartridge have shown 99+% chlorine removal
even after 20,000 gallons of water passed through the
filter. In comparison, carbon
cartridges of comparable volumes drop below 90%
effectiveness after only 4,000 gallons. This is an
important consideration.
Iron and hydrogen sulfide are oxidized into insoluble
matter and attach to the surface of the media. Heavy
metals such as lead, mercury, copper, nickel, chromium,
cadmium, aluminum, and other dissolved metals are
removed from the water by the electrochemical process.
They are attracted to the surface of the media, much
like a magnet. The media inhibits bacterial growth
throughout the entire unit. In fact, it has been shown
to be reduced up to 90%, eliminating the need for
silver, which is commonly used in carbon-only filters
(silver is considered a pesticide by the EPA and, as
such, must be registered with them). Is copper or zinc
added to the water in any significant amount? On 2.3 ppm
chlorinated water, <0.05 mg/l copper and only 0.46 mg/l
zinc were measured. The EPA aesthetic levels are 1.0
mg/l for copper and 5.0 mg/l for zinc. Both zinc and
copper are essential minerals for good health - the FDA
recommends a daily intake of 15 mg of zinc and 2 mg of
copper.

Stage
4, water flows through ion exchange resins,
reducing heavy metals such as lead, copper, aluminum,
and water hardness.
Stage
5, water flows through granulated activated
carbon (GAC). GAC is universally recognized and widely
used as an effective adsorbent for a wide variety of
organic contaminants, such as chlorine (99.9%),
chemicals linked to cancer (THM's, benzene) pesticides,
herbicides, insecticides, volatile organic compounds (VOC's),
PCB's, MTBE's and hundreds of other chemical
contaminants that may be present in water causing bad
taste and odors in your drinking water.
Carbon is extremely porous and provides a large surface
area for contaminants to collect. Carbon-only filters
must also use their capacity for chlorine removal,
resulting in a shortened life. They also may use a
bituminous coal carbon, which is good at removing |
chlorine, but not as
effective at removing chemicals. We use a high-grade
coconut shell carbon that is most effective at removing
chemicals. Coconut shell carbon provides a significantly
higher volume of micro-pores than either coal, wood or
lignite based carbon. As a result, it is more effective
than other carbon types in removing trihalomethanes (THM's)
and other chemicals from municipally supplied water.
Since our REDOX media removes the chlorine before it
reaches the carbon, the carbon capacity is not wasted on
chlorine and is free to concentrate more effectively on
organic contaminants.
In stage 6, water flows through another one-micron
filtration pad for further reduction of undesirable
particles. The end result is a great reduction or total
elimination of a wide variety of contaminants.
