What Makes Your Drinking Water System
Different is What Makes It Better
Like other Kinetico equipment, the Kinetico K5 Drinking Water Station is
non-electric and demand operated. With demand operation, Kinetico systems
produce high quality drinking water, while they maximize water efficiency
and performance.
EverClean
®
Rinse
After shutdown, the system initiates
the EverClean Rinse feature,
which is patented and exclusive to
Kinetico. e membrane’s surface is
automatically cleansed with and left
to bathe in clean, processed water.
is extends the useful life of the
membrane, enables it to maintain
a high level of performance and
prevents inorganic contaminants
from migrating into the treated
water during shutoff.
MACguard Filter
One of the system’s most unique features is the automatic shutoff of the
MACguard Filter. (“MAC” stands for Metered Automatic Cartridge.) After
500 gal (1895 L) of water have been processed through the MACguard Filter,
it shuts off (no flow or fine stream) to alert you that the filter is exhausted.
e filter cannot be reset, and no more water can be drawn from the system.
is signals the need to change the prefilter and postfilter cartridges, but more
importantly, it prevents you from using the cartridges beyond their capacity.
If overused, cartridges lose their filtration ability.
PureMometer
®
Filter Life Indicator
Your system is equipped with the PureMometer (rhymes with thermometer)
Filter Life Indicator so you can tell how much capacity remains in your filter
cartridges. Use the PureMometer to estimate when to purchase replacement
prefilter and postfilter cartridges so you won’t be surprised when the failsafe
MACguard Filter shuts down the system.
