Why should I choose the PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter for my home?
The PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter is a superior product that offers a host of benefits versus other whole house water filters available today. The PC1000’s filter lasts for up to 5 years or 1.000,000 gallons; when it’s time to replace the filter, all you have to replace is the media inside the tank – no tank to replace and no plumbing required! This makes the cost of filter replacement a fraction of that of competitive products. In addition, the PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter is manufactured using only the highest quality valves and tanks. The tank’s large diameter holds a significant amount of water filtration media, resulting in better over-all performance and longer lifespan for the product. All in all, the PC1000 is designed for many years of trouble-free service.

How does the Pelican PC1.000 Premium Whole House Water Filter work?
The PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter uses the highest grade carbons available on the market today plus a multi-stage filtration process to filter contaminates out of the water that is going into your home. These carbons completely remove or significantly reduce sediment, particulate matter, VOCs (volatile organic compounds), SOCs (synthetic organic compounds), THMs (trihalomethanes, many of which are carcinogenic), chlorine, atrazine, benzene, pesticides, tastes, odors, and hundreds of other potential contaminants and harmful chemicals from your home’s water supply.
 

What contaminates are addressed by the PC1000 filter?

• Chlorine
• Chloramine
• Atrazine
• Benzene
• Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
• Synthetic Organic Compounds (SOCs)
• Industrial Solvents
• THMs (trihalomethanes, which are chlorine by-products)
• Pesticides
• Herbicides
• And More (to view the manufacturer’s list of additional contaminates addressed, please Click Here)
  

What is the filter media for the PC1000 made of?
The filter media for the Pelican PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter is composed of a proprietary blend of high-grade granular activated carbon which is produced from Sri Lankan coconut shells. This carbon is NSF Certified and meets or exceeds all food chemical codex, AWWA, and ASTM protocols. See NSF Certified Standard 42. The filter media of the Pelican PC1000 has a large surface area, high pore volume, and chemical stability. Very few manufacturers have the ability to produce such a high microporous surface area. The main application of this filter media is the absorption of gas and vapor, and the removal of the color and order of compounds (specifically MTBE, VOCs, and SOCs).

In addition, the filter media contains a proprietary blend of high-grade catalytic abrasive-resistant filtering material made of broken and sifted pyrolysed coal. The porous, rough surface and high absorption surface of this material allows the media to solve purification problems, such as THMs. The main application of this filter media is the removal of organic compounds such as herbicides, pesticides, and chlorinated organic substances by absorption. It also provides an increase in the capacity of the filter bed to capture pollutants using in-depth filtration for drinking water.

Does the Pelican PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter remove Copepods from the water?
Yes. Since copepods (a small group of crustaceans) range from 30 microns to 50 microns in size, the PC1000’s 5-micron pre-filter will remove them from your water supply. This method of copepods filtration is approved based on an article found at http://www.oukosher.org.

If you have any questions during the installation you or your plumber can contact Pelican’s helpful Customer Service Technicians for further assistance.

Where should I install the Pelican PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter?
The PC1000 is a whole-house/whole-home Point-of-Entry system. As such, it is usually installed at the point where the main water line enters the home, garage, or basement. For added versatility the PC1000 can also be installed outside or buried in the ground.

How long will the PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter last?
The PC1000’s filter is designed to last for 5 years or 1.000,000 gallons, whichever comes first. The product’s pre-filter should be checked on a monthly basis, and generally needs to be replaced every 6 to 9 months.

What is the replacement cost after 5 years or 1.000,000 gallons?
Because all you need to replace once the filter media has expired is the filter media itself – not the entire tank, as with most whole house water filters on the market – the replacement cost is surprisingly low. The current cost to replace the media for the PC1000 is only $216.00, including shipping! Plus, since you only need to replace the filter, you’ll save on plumbing costs as well. This is one of the many advantages of the PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter.

How often should I change the 5-micron pre-filter on my PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter?
The pre-filter should be changed approximately once every 6 to 9 months, depending on the actual amount of particulate matter or sediment that is present in your water supply. If the pre-filter becomes extremely dirty water will not be able to flow through the system properly, and you will notice a significant drop in your water pressure.

How much maintenance is required for the PC1000?
None! No maintenance is required for this product, although the pre-filter should be checked on a monthly basis.

Will the PC1000 remove bacteria?
No. If you are concerned about eliminating harmful microorganisms (i.e. bacteria) from your water, you may want to consider a Trojan UV Disinfection System.

Why don’t the Pelican Systems require backwashing?
Pelican whole house water filters operate based on an up-flow design rather than the traditional down-flow design. The reason that other products require backwashing is to fluff the media bed – not to wash out contaminants, as most people believe. With the Pelican Systems, the media is continuously fluffed from the normal water flow, so no backwashing is required. Down-flow systems have a tendency to channel, which causes the media to be ineffective. The Pelican PC1000’s up-flow design avoids this possibility and is more effective overall.

How will the Pelican PC1000 be shipped to my home?
The Pelican PC1000 Premium Whole House Water Filter will be shipped via UPS Ground. To ensure that your water filter arrives in factory-fresh condition it will be packed in the highest quality double-walled box, with side cushions and a custom top piece to protect the top of the filter. We understand the importance of proper packaging to protect your water filter.
