ABSTRACT:
The water filtration system has nine filter elements serially arranged in a hollow cylinder housing with a water inlet end and water outlet end having pipe fittings, such as, 3/4 inches for installation in the main inlet water line of a household. For a normal household the housing is approximately 20 inches long and 4 inches in diameter. The first filter element on the water inlet end is a loose weave polyester fiber pad; the second filter element is multiple irregular polyethylene beads filling approximately 3 inches of the housing length; the third and seventh filter sections are a very fine plain wool filter floss; the fourth, sixth and eighth filter sections are one millimeter wool fibers impregnated with carbon to equal two thirds of the total weight of the fibers; the fifth filter element is multiple pharmaceutical grade carbon granules filling approximately 4 1/2 inches of the housing length; and the ninth filter element is a fine mesh nylon screen. The filter elements eliminate up to 90% of chlorine, up to 92% of other foreign matter such as dirt, rust, fiber, sand, etc. from the municipal water supply.
