Therefore, depending on your water source and the level of fine particules, you may require a one, two or three housing system. Also, depending on the water source, you can choose different pre-filtration levels before the water enters the NC-254 stage.

For the person who does not want to spend time considering the best choice, or if you are not sure of the water quality in your area, you may be better served with a three housing system, thus providing the best prefiltration and final purification via the NC-254 cartridge.

For our clients with multiple installation locations, like condominium units, you may choose to order one of our countertop WaterHome units to run as a pilot project in order to determine the service durability of a single NC-254 filter before it becomes fully saturated. Based on this information, you can use the table below to better define the best system for your single or multiple system applications.

The following single cartridge NC-254 durability versus application guide. Based on using a WaterHome countertop unit as a pilot system.
 

Examples: In the Montreal area, WaterHome units with an NC-254 NanoCarb filter will last anywhere from 2 to 18 months, which indicates that the source water has a low to high level of particules proned to saturate the NanoCarb filter.

On the northern shore of Montreal, WaterHome units also last anywhere from 2 to 18 months, so depending on the region, clients should consider using a dual or triple under-the-counter unit to ensure that the NanoCarb filter is well protected against premature saturation. But regardless of the saturation level, NanoCarb water will always be safe.

The NCB-2CA+ and NCB-3CA+ units are dual and triple housing units with the addition of a pressurized pure water holding tank. The holding tank fills up extremely quickly to be ready to supply higher water demands. Even when the NanoCarb filter gets to a very slow flow rate for pure water production, the holding tank fills up to maximum available pressure so you will never have a reduction in available flow rate, hence no inconvenience until the very end of the NC-254's  service life.

Here are two tables that can better explain how a NanoCarb Optimizing Holding Tank will help you extend the usable service life of a NanoCarb NC-254 filter.

The tables above show that over time, using the NanoCarb Optimizing Holding Tank (HT) enables the user to both have consistent maximum water flow throughout the service life of the filter, but also to extend the service life beyond the practical limits of human patience, when filling a water kettle.

Simply put, the HT enables a user to exploit down to the last drop of water which a NanoCarb filter can produce, and thus can double or triple the practical service life of the filter, before requiring replacement.

The Waterhome counter-top unit and replacement filter (specially sized for this unit with blue end caps) will no longer be available once our current stock is depleated. We are therefore offering the Waterhome unit for the price of the replacement cartridge which is $104.00 CDN FOB our warehouse. This way, you can simply replace the complete unit for the same price as a replacement cartridge or you can order the Waterline replacement cartridge until stocks last.
