Introducing Swich, this revolutionary product will now transform your kitchen tap, new or old, into a filtered water tap delivering a constant supply of crystal clear filtered water. The Swich device is easy to install and use and works in conjunction with your normal mixer tap. Simply turn the handle control to indicate the type of water supply that you wish to channel through the tap – giving you immediate access to both the domestic supply and then to water via the Abode Swich filter cartridge, delivering clear refreshing results.
The flow of cold or filtered water from the tap is adjusted and managed in exactly the same way as you normally would use the tap. When the Swich device is turned to the filter setting, you will experience a slightly lower flow of water. This is designed to ensure that the water coming into the filter has sufficient contact time with the activated carbon inside the filter cartridge, housed discreetly under the sink.
Installation is quick and simple. Abode has pioneered the use of push-fit pipe technology for the simple DIY installation of our Swich filtered water diverter system. Normal domestic water passing over the activated carbon filter reduces chlorine levels and reduces sediment, dirt, dissolved metals and rust, resulting in a substantially improved water taste.
SWICH FACTS
Classic Swich Filter - Polyphosphate Additive
Polyphosphate is a crystal like additive widely used across the food and water treatment industry.
In normal use, the glass like 2-4mm polyphosphate crystal spheres in the filter cartridge will very slowly dissolve into the incoming water supply to a very weak concentration, once the water is treated the phosphate and silicate forms a microscopic protective layer coating onto metallic surfaces.
This microscopic layer brings two main advantages:
As the crystals dissolve, the effect of them is reduced, once completely dissolved the filter cartridge will require replacement.
High Resin Swich Filter - Ion Exchange Resin Additive
Ion exchange resin again is a proven technology for water scale reduction treatment similar to that used in jug filters. The special ion exchange beads used in our filters are a spherical resin material that the incoming water passes over inside the filter.
As the water passes over the beads every calcium or magnesium ion (commonly found minerals in hard water supplies) are replaced with positively charged hydrogen ions, this reaction will reduce dissolved inorganic and trace metal compounds.
The weak acidic cation resin used in our filters in very hard water areas may give the water a slight sparkling appearence, additionally it will slightly lower the pH value.
The ion exchange beads do not dissolve but over time the active sites of the beads become filled with the removed minerals and the capability of the filter is reduced, once spent the filter will require replacement.
