What does the E3000UV system do?

The E3000UV is a whole-house filtration and salt-free softening system with UV disinfection designed for City Water to improve water quality for your entire home and provide better than bottle quality water from every tap. It reduces chlorine, sediment, and other impurities while protecting your plumbing and appliances from scale buildup. The UV system sterilizes pathogens such as bacteria and viruses, thereby offering an additional layer of protection for you and your loved ones.

E3000UV Component Certifications

NSF/ANSI - 42 (Chlorine, taste, and odor reduction, Material safety and structural Integrity)
NSF/ ANSI - 61 (Drinking water safety)
NSF/ANSI - 372 (Lead free)
NSF/ANSI - 55 (Disinfection performance and Microbial safety)

Does the E3000UV soften water?

The salt-free system uses Template Assisted Crystallization (TAC) to condition the water, preventing scale buildup without adding salt. Unlike a salt-based system systems that chemically removes minerals such as calcium and magnesium, the ESOFT® system retains beneficial minerals, hence some minor evaporative deposits may still occur.

There is no maintenance such as heavy and costly bags of salt and no waste water or brine discharge which has caused salt-based systems to be banned or restricted in several states or municipalities in Arizona, California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Michigan Minnesota, New Mexico, Texas and Wisconsin.

How long do the filters last and what maintenance does the system require?

Regular filter changes (every 6-12 months depending on your water quality) and UV lamp/sleeve replacement (once a year) are only main maintenance tasks required for E3000UV. Both filter and lamp changes are very easy and only take a few minutes, you do not need a plumber for these tasks.

Will it improve taste/odor of my water?

Yes, the high-performance carbon media in the E3000UV is highly effective at reducing chlorine, improving taste, removing unpleasant odors in your city water.

Can it handle water for a large household?

Yes, the E3000UV is designed to handle high flow rates up to 15 GPM, making it suitable for homes with up to 5 full bathrooms and works for 98% of US homes.

How much space does it take to install?

It typically requires about 3–4 feet of wall space (doesn’t require any floor space) and should be installed in a location that is accessible for maintenance.

Will it affect my water pressure?

When installed correctly, the E3000UV is designed to maintain strong water pressure of 15 GPM (gallons per minute) for your home. This is good enough to run up to 5 showers and appliances (such as dishwashers or washers ) at the same with no noticeable drop in water pressure.

Does it require electricity?

Yes, the UV system requires a standard electrical outlet.

Why do I need UV if my water is from the city?

While most city water is safe, contamination events can happen leading to boil water alerts. UV disinfection acts like insurance, providing extra protection by sterilizing 99.9% of bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms.

What does a UV system sterilize?

UV system uses a strong quartz UV lamp to disinfect water without any chemicals and sterilizes 99.9% of bacteria including E.coli, viruses, and chlorine-resistant microorganisms like cryptosporidium and giardia—without changing taste or smell.

Does UV make my water taste different?

No, UV light does not alter the taste, smell, or appearance of your water.

Do I still need filters if I have UV?

Yes. Filters remove particles, chemicals, and chlorine, while UV handles microorganisms. Both work together for complete water protection.

Can it be combined with other filtration systems?

Yes, the E3000UV can be installed alongside additional treatment systems if needed, such as reverse osmosis or specialty filters.

How much power does the UV use?

The UV uses the same amount of power as a 40-watt lightbulb

Can the system be installed outside?

The UV will need to be protected from the weather. Inside installation is recommended.
