U.S. News World Report July 29,1991
In enacting the Safe Drinking Water Act in 1974,
Congress envisioned a major overhaul of the
nations drinking water supply.
By all accounts, that vision has failed.
3
The EPA ranks drinking water pollution as one of
thetop 4 environmental threats to health.
The ongoing problem of tainted drinking water is
very disturbing.
It is complicated by the varying standards
andexpectations of drinking water.
4
  • In early summer, half the rivers streams in
    America's Corn Belt, lakes are laced with
    unhealthy levels of pesticides.
  • Microbes in tap water may be responsible for 1
    in 3 cases of all gastrointestinal illnesses.
  • Ironically, even the chlorine widely used to
    disinfect water, produces carcinogenic traces
    when combined with other common substances in
    water.

5
The delicate ecosystem Mother Earth
contains a fixed amount of water, the very
source of life itself.
  • So the next time you take a moment to drink a
    refreshing glass of water, keep this in mind

All of the water there ever was is still with us
today.
6
Water is Alive
  • Cycled recycled in an incredible and never
    ending self-cleaning process.
  • A natural process which is now being stressed to
    unnatural limits due to
  • increasing agricultural runoff
  • industrial pollutants
  • inadequate sewage treatment facilities
  • deteriorating pipes fittings

7
First falling as rain
  • Water circulates throughout the earth's
    surface as rivers, streams, lakes, and oceans.
  • Water flow generates electrical power and
    forms natural super highways for transportation
    while functioning as the nation's collective
    sewage waste disposal system.
  • Ultimately some of that same water winds its
    way through water treatment plants and end up on
    your home as potable water for drinking and food
    preparation.

8
Drinking water safetycannot be taken for granted
  • There are a number of threats to drinking water
  • improperly disposed of chemicals
  • animal wastes
  • pesticides
  • human wastes
  • wastes injected deep underground
  • and naturally occurring substances can all
    contaminate drinking water.
  • Drinking water that is not properly treated or
    disinfected,or which travels through an
    improperly maintained distribution system, may
    also pose a health risk.

9
Shortages of clean water have a direct effect on
human health.
  • Water contaminated with fecal bacteria,
    parasites and other microbes causes about 6,000
    deaths every day.
  • including 1.4 million children under the age of
    5 every year.

10
Facts
  • Americans drink more than 1 billion glasses of
    tap water per day.
  • A person must consume 2.5 quarts of water per day
    from all sources (drinking, eating) to maintain
    health.
  • 70 of human body is water 75 of the human
    brain is water.
  • The average American uses over 100 gallons of
    water per day the average residence uses over
    100,000 gallons per year.

19
A Heavy Duty Drinking Water Appliance with 6
unique filter media
Approximately 17-1/2 lb. of 6 different
media That is a whopping 440 cubic inches of
media!
20
5 Filter Beds of 6 Filter Media
  • First layer - Traps particulate sediments for
    easy removal in backwash cycle.
  • Second layer - A naturally mined mineral that
    removes iron, sulfur, manganese certain heavy
    metals. Removes chlorine, and it lasts - not
    used up like carbon.
  • Third layer - KDF, a patented copper-zinc media
    that removes iron, sulfur, other common
    minerals at a higher level that are offensive to
    smell taste. Also removes inorganic toxins
    heavy metals that makes the next bed of carbon
    last longer. KDF kills bacteria without using
    toxic silver.
  • Fourth layer - 2 advanced media that specifically
    formulated for selectively removing arsenic
    fluoride.
  • Fifth layer - GAC, the highest grade of coconut
    shell carbon. Removes organic materials
    including most pesticides many poisonous
    materials.

21
Patented Multi-Media Construction
  • There are 4 filter disk media bed separators
    one before each stage.
  • The large diameter of pressure vessel each disk
    slows water flow to spread it over the whole
    surface of the media.
  • This prevents CHANNELING at each stage.
  • This increases contact time resulting in higher
    purity at each stage.

Top bottom distributor baskets are very fine
and self-cleaning in backwash mode.
22
Patented Technology Prevents Water Channeling
  • Water Channeling is a common problem in most
    water filters.
  • Channeling is caused by forcing water through
    granular filter media too quickly, making an open
    pathway to the other end of the filter.
  • This leaves contaminants in the water
    unfiltered.
  • No Channeling with WHOLLY WATER
  • The only result is PURE water!

23
Fits easily under your sink
  • 18 inches high x 8 inches diameter
  • Weight About 20 lb.
  • Approx. 1 gallon/minute flow rate
  • Tank - FDA food grade materials
  • Filters down to 10 to 15 microns by itself
  • Wholly Water Appliance removes up to 99
    bacteria. With a 0.5 micron post filter
    installed after the Wholly Water, there is 100
    bacteria, parasites cyst removal.
  • Can also be attached to your icemaker for
    great-tasting ice!

Easy Backwash
This self-cleaning feature cleanses the system,
forcing trapped pipe sediment particulate down
the drain, not into your drinking water.
  • Disconnect the blue black line from top of
    Wholly Water by pushing on the metal leak-free,
    pushbutton quick disconnects.
  • Reverse blue black line to backwash.Insert
    blue line to IN and black line to OUT port.
  • Suggest backwash be done every 3 months or so,
    depending on your water quality. Some people go
    longer.

26
Normal Filtration Mode
After backwash is done, just switch lines back
into original position as shown above.
27
Need a Pressure Regulator?
  • Important! If you suspect your water pressure
    is over 60 psi or you are on municipal water
    supply, a water pressure regulator should be
    installed on the line before your WHOLLY WATER
    Appliance.

28
Environmentally Friendly
  • No filters to change so
  • no old filters to throw away that fill up
    landfills dumps.
  • No water bottles to throw away.
  • No wasted water as with reverse osmosis.

29
10 to 20 percent of human exposure to lead may
come from lead in drinking water.
  • One in 6 people drink water with excessive
    amounts of lead, a heavy metal that impairs
    children's IQ attention span.
  • Infants who consume mostly mixed formula can
    receive 40 to 60 percent of their exposure to
    lead from drinking water.

30
How Lead in Water Can Affect You
  • Can cause serious damage to the brain, kidneys,
    nervous system, and red blood cells.
  • The health effects of lead are most severe for
    infants and children.A child's mental and
    physical development can be irreversibly
    stunted.
  • For adults, it can result in kidney problems or
    high blood pressure.

31
WHOLLY WATER Also Removes Arsenic Fluoride
  • Both are extremely toxic.
  • Toxicity is accumulative builds up in your body
    over time.
  • They are very reactive combine with other
    common substances like Aluminum in the water,
    making toxic compounds. (They may do more bodily
    harm in less time.)

32
Fluoride in Drinking Water
  • dental fluorosis - mottling pitting of teeth
  • skeletal fluorosis arthritic pain, spine
    rigidity, mal shaping of bones.
  • cancer
  • genetic damage
  • allergies

Mild to severe dental fluorosis
Lead Arsenic may also be in fluoridated water
supplies. Not only may fluoridated water contain
fluosilicic acid, a non-pharmaceutical quality
fluoride, but heavy metals,such as lead
arsenic all derived from the waste byproducts
of fertilizer manufacturing!
33
WHOLLY WATER removes 99 of fluoride at 20,000
gallons. Up to 78,000 gallons under EPA Safe
Drinking Act Standards.These tests were with
input of 8.2 ppm.
In practical terms, 2 parts per million (ppm)
going in could last over 4 times as long and may
be 100 removed with WHOLLY WATER.
To give you an idea how long this lasts and the
performance of System The average family uses
between 1,000 to 2,000 gallons of water per year.
At this rate, it would take 10 to 20 years to use
20,000 gallons.
34
Arsenic in Drinking Water
  • When ingested in dissolved form, inorganic
    arsenic is readily absorbed.
  • Long-term exposure causes cancer of the skin,
    lungs, urinary bladder, and kidney, as well as
    skin changes such as pigmentation changes and
    thickening (hyperkeratosis).
  • Increased risks of lung and bladder cancer and of
    arsenic-associated skin lesions have been
    observed at drinkingwater arsenic concentrations
    of less than 0.05 mg/L.

WHOLLY WATER removes 100 of arsenic at 20,000
gallons. Up to 78,000 gallons under EPA Safe
Drinking Act Standards
35
WHOLLY WATER More effective than Reverse
Osmosis
  • The vital, healthy minerals for good health
    remain in your water!
  • Removes more contaminants for better water
    quality, better taste.
  • No membranes to change!
  • Typically with RO, there are 5-10 gallons wasted
    down the drainfor every gallon saved for
    drinking water!
  • Costs thousands less than a whole house RO
    system.
  • Faster water flow.
  • No maintenance cost.

36
Do you drink Reverse Osmosis or Distilled Water?
  • Do you believe that drinking Reverse Osmosis or
    Distilled Water is
  • the healthiest water because you believe
    that there is nothing in it?
  • Both processes may remove some contaminants, but
    they also remove the vital minerals that your
    body needs. Since these waters lack minerals,
    they become very aggressive and immediately leach
    out healthy minerals from your bones, tissues,
    organs your whole body.
  • WHOLLY WATER for good health!
  • Leaves the vital minerals in your water and in
    your body, in a more bio-available form.

37
Comparison of Wholly Water and Reverse Osmosis
Note Wholly Water Appliance removes up to 99
bacteria. With a 0.5 micron post filter
installed after the Wholly Water, there is 100
bacteria removal.
