Technical Merits

The eSpring Water System was the first in-home system to combine UV light technology and a patented multi-stage carbon-block filter into one easy-to-replace cartridge. The cartridge has a high flow rate of 0.9 gpm (3.4 lpm) with a rated life of 5000 liters (1320 gallons) or one year.

The ultraviolet light in the eSpring Water System features instant-on technology. Turning on the tap activates a sensor that energizes the lamp instantly with a UV dose >40 mJ/cm2 to destroy microorganisms in even the worst water quality conditions. Because the UV lamp is not constantly on, it won’t heat the water or waste energy.

eSpring products were the first water treatment devices to power a UV lamp wirelessly with adaptive inductive coupling. It was the product that started the wireless power revolution (see ecoupled.com). The design eliminates exposed electrical connectors to the lamp, improving reliability and simplifying cartridge replacement. It also provides consistent UV lamp performance over time.

The system has an environmentally preferred design. The monitor incorporates an LED display and uses an instant-on UV lamp for lower energy consumption. The all-in-one cartridge, replaced once a year for most consumers, creating less waste.
