TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION

COMBINING CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGIES

 

 

"The eSpring® Water Purifier combines innovative technology and advanced design in a compact, attractive package. A great deal of research and patented advancements has gone into creating a home water purification system that delivers excellent performance, energy savings, and durability."

Roy Kuennen, Director – Durables Research & Development

True Innovation

 

The eSpring® Water Purifier contains an all-in-one cartridge with an ultraviolet (UV) lamp inside a carbon-block filter*. The Water Purifier reduces more than 140 potential health-effect contaminants that may be in drinking water.

*The eSpring Carbon Water Treatment System does not include UV technology.

 

Carbon Filter Technology

 

The eSpring® System uses a patented, multi-stage carbon block that:

  • Reduces chlorine taste and odor

  • Traps particulates to boost water clarity

  • Effectively reduces over 140 possible health-effect contaminants

How it works

Carbon filtration is the technology of choice for home water treatment systems, but Amway’s patented eSpring® carbon filter goes beyond ordinary carbon filters. Amway "activates" the carbon through a special heat process that creates thousands of pores. This increases the surface area available to trap contaminants. No other in-home system reduces more possible health-effect contaminants.

Amway’s patented carbon block filter:

  • Traps particulates 300% smaller than the width of a human hair

  • Treats up to 5,000 liters (1,320 gallons) of water in one year – enough for an average family of six

  • Allows beneficial minerals like calcium, magnesium and tooth-decay-fighting fluoride to pass through the carbon block filter and remain in the water.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Smart Chip Technology

 

eSpring® Water Treatment Systems include a sophisticated monitoring system that never leaves you in the dark about the status of your unit. The system uses “smart chip” technology to keep track of the ultraviolet lamp* and the carbon- block filter’s life. An LCD display lets you know how much life is left in your filter and when it needs to be replaced.

Ultraviolet Technology

 

The eSpring® Water Purifier is unique when compared to other in-home purifiers because it contains an all-in-one cartridge with an ultraviolet (UV) lamp inside a carbon-block filter* to treat water without chemicals. The UV bulb exposes water to powerful UV doses up 80 millijoules (units of measure) per square centimeter. The Water Purifier also reduces more than 140 potential health-effect contaminants that may be present in drinking water with its multistage, pressed carbon-block filter.

Monitor Technology

 

 

The eSpring® electronic monitoring system is another advanced feature that differentiates this system from other home use water filtration systems. The monitoring system features an LED display that shows the status of the system and the amount of life remaining in the cartridge. Audible and visual warning cues signal when it’s time to replace the cartridge.

Once a new cartridge is installed, the monitor resets automatically which means there are no buttons to push. It is so advanced, it automatically "reads" the life of any cartridge inserted, whether that cartridge is new or partially-used.

Inductive Coupling

 

Another eSpring® technology first – and another patented feature – is the wireless inductive coupling used between the UV lamp and the unit. This completely isolates the UV bulb from the power source. The system is designed to be durable, with an easy-to-replace cartridge. It also only switches the bulb on when water is flowing, which saves energy and allows the water to remain tap temperature.
