The importance of Hydration in the battle against the COVID-19 pandemic!
Our bodies are made up of 60% water which is why staying hydrated and re-hydrating is so important. Water is in every cell of our body. It is used by our major organs, such as our kidneys, liver, heart and brain. Hydration is also key to regulating our core temperature, and dehydration can exacerbate an existing fever. Small losses in body fluid can cause body temperatures to rise. The amount of water needed to stay hydrated has gone up from the typical 8 glasses a day that was typically recommended, “Our bodies need quite a bit of hydration every day. For women, 2.7 liters about 11 glasses of water. For men, about 3.7 liters, about 16 glasses. Staying hydrated also means healthy membranes, when we cough, sneeze and just breathe, membranes in our nose and mouth eliminate bacteria. Moisture helps heal the broken membranes so additional infectious organisms can’t enter the body. A high quality source of drinking water in your home is one of the best ways to ensure that you and your family stay hydrated and healthy. Utilizing the same technology used around the world in restaurants and coffee houses, Pentair Everpure brings superior filtration into your home. Everpure commercial grade water filtration systems reduce contaminants that affect water taste while preserving the valuable minerals and vitamins naturally found in drinking water. Pentair Everpure can provide peace of mind with clean, great-tasting water in your home.
If you tour the kitchen at a world renowned restaurant, you’re very likely to see the Everpure name. We’re the industry leader that professional chefs trust most for excellence in water filtration. They love our ability to remove the impurities that make water taste bad, while preserving the valuable trace minerals that create refreshing flavor. A commercial grade Everpure system takes away all sorts of unpleasant substances – and even some unhealthy ones – that may be in your tap water:
- Particulates that leave a bad taste or odor
- Chemical substances that may affect health and add unpleasant tastes and odors
- Bacteria and viruses that can cause illness
- Limescale that damages your expensive water-using appliances
Everpure filtered water lets you drink, blend beverages, and cook with confidence.
- Better tasting coffee and tea
- More appetizing food – chlorinated water can cause cooking water to taste odd, which can affect food, such as pasta. Chlorine also can affect food color.
- Tastier homemade bread – chlorine can affect yeast, which is a particular problem in sourdough recipes.
- Cleaner fruits and vegetables – washing produce in filtered water prevents contamination with chlorine and related byproducts. Even washing salad in chlorinated water can have negative effects.
From elegant fare to simple crystal-clear ice, enjoy gourmet restaurant quality in your own home with a Pentair Everpure system.

Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer urges water limits due to Covid surge and the use of liquid oxygen in the treatment of Orlando water.
The Mayor of Orlando asked residents on Friday, August 20th, 2021 to stop watering their lawns and washing their cars for at least a week, saying water usage needed to be cut back because of the recent surge of Covid-19 hospitalizations. The Orlando Utility Commission treats the city’s water with liquid oxygen and supplies that ordinarily go toward water treatment have been diverted to hospitals for patients suffering from the virus. The city-owned utility typically goes through 10 trucks of liquid oxygen a week but its supplier recently said that it would be cut back to five to seven trucks a week to accommodate hospitals, said Linda Ferrone, OUC’s chief customer and marketing officer.

Making Better Water For Your Hotel Guest
Hotel water supplies are concerned with every aspect of water quality due to the multiple uses throughout the facility. Clean sparkling water is expected at the restaurant and bar at all times. The same expectations are throughout the entire experience at a resort for guests. A single filtration system will not be able to address all the needs, but at Filter Pure we can guide you to the most effective way to have the best water for your hotel. Below are two of the most common water uses for a hotel that influences the customer’s experience. 
Ice can have a great impact due to its visual presentation and ability to store unpleasant taste and odors if present. Having foul smelling or cloudy ice is not an option for any operation and correcting the problem is not a difficult process. The first step in getting clear ice is utilizing an Everpure Insurice system. Using .5 micron filtration and scale inhibitors you are guaranteed great ice while protecting your equipment. The carbon filtration clears up any remaining taste and odor contaminants that may be present to give the best ice for your customer. 
Soda fountains are a large source of water use for hotels that operate a restaurant or banquet area. Soda requires the same level of filtration to remove taste and odor problems, but also needs to be used without a scale inhibitor. Scale inhibitor is great for protecting your equipment but inhibits the carbonation. A system running with the wrong filters can flatten a soda and leave the freshness to be desired. The best system we have found for soda fountain use is the Coldrink series of filter systems. These top rated systems and are easy to maintain like all Everpure products. At Filter Pure, we are always glad to help and lend a hand with any water problem you may encounter. For more information or to request a quotation please contact us at 1-800-942-7873.

What Does the NSF Label on My Pentair/Everpure Water Filter Mean?
Millions of people take the safety of their food, water and consumer products for granted on a daily basis. Why? Because of three letters: NSF. Founded in 1944 as the National Sanitation Foundation, the foundation changed it’s name to NSF International in 1990 as they expanded services beyond sanitation and into global markets. NSF certification is your key to making sure that the products you use meet strict standards for public health protection. Choosing a product certified by NSF lets you know the company complies with strict standards and procedures imposed by NSF.
There are important reasons to look for NSF certification when purchasing a water filter;
- Performance claims may be based on internal testing only.
- Sometimes stated capacities are misleading.
- In capacity claims it’s not always clear what percentage of chemical contaminants are actually reduced.
NSF Certification ensures that:
- The contaminant reduction claims certified are true and accurate.
- The materials of construction do not add anything unwanted to the water such as lead.
- The system is structurally sound.
- Advertising claims are true and accurate.
From extensive product testing and material analyses to unannounced plant inspections, every aspect of a product’s development is thoroughly evaluated before it can earn our certification. Most importantly, NSF certification is not a one-time event, but involves regular on-site inspections of manufacturing facilities and regular re-testing of products to ensure that they continue to meet the same high standards required to maintain certification over time. If for any reason a product fails to meet one or more certification criteria, NSF will take enforcement actions to protect you, including product recall, public notification or de-certification. If you have any questions about the quality of the filter that you are currently using and whether or not that filter has an NSF certification please ask us about your filter below or call our team at 800-942-7873.
Lovin' Your Combi-Oven
- Chlorine/Chloramines
- Hardness (scale)
- Chlorides
Chlorine and Chloramines are disinfectants that protect us from water-borne disease and other health risks, but they also promote corrosion in cooking equipment. The scale forming compounds of calcium and magnesium carbonate are found in most water supplies. The physics of generating steam results in the precipitation of these dissolved minerals which forms hard scale in boilers, valves and fittings, and on elements, cabinet walls and glass. Chlorides are common, active ions of dissolved solids in water that can cause pitting and crevice corrosion. At high temperatures chlorides are particularly corrosive to stainless steel. Chlorides can only be removed with a system that utilizes reverse osmosis.
With these facts in mind, you want to make sure you pick the right water filtration system for your combi-oven. Here are a few options:

What Your Unfiltered Water Contains…
Think about where your water comes from….and we don’t just mean the sink! Expand your mind and remember that water comes from unclean, natural resources like rivers and lakes, which contain pollution and contaminants that are unfit for consumption. To be clean, the water should undergo a number of treatments necessary to make it drinkable.
Specifically in tap water is:
- Toxic heavy metals such as lead, mercury, copper, cadmium and aluminum
- Volatile organic chemicals, such as pesticides and herbicides
- Pharmaceuticals
- Chemicals from irresponsible manufacturers
- Personal care chemicals
- Household cleaning products
- Water treatment additives such as chlorine, fluoride, and other toxic chemicals
- Bacteria and viruses such as giardia, cryptosporidium, coliform and E-coli
- Toxic Heavy Metals
Water purifiers are specifically designed to eliminate or reduce these certain pollutants that are in our drinking water. They also improve the quality and taste of the water by eliminating its chlorine content. It is virtually impossible to know what is in tap water at any given time because municipal water quality as well as private well water varies from place to place, season to season, and house to house. Even if all of the toxic metals could be completely filtered at the local water treatment facility, they could still end up in your drinking water because rust and sediment build up in the water pipes within our homes. Even this minimal exposure can cause symptoms similar to the flu, such as headaches, diarrhea, cramps, nausea or vomiting. The only way we can have any control over the quality of water we drink is by having a personal water filter system. Filtered drinking water is the most reliable and least expensive way to get healthy water!
Everpure Claris Water Filter Heads
Everpure Claris water filter heads are an integral part of the Claris water filter system by Everpure. This system was designed to be used with hot water and is ideal for hot drink machines, steam cooking and brewed iced tea. It is unique in that it permits users to determine the amount of minerals they want in their water, allowing for improved flavor while still protecting equipment from the damages caused by hard water. It doesn’t waste water the way that a reverse osmosis system does, and yet it still helps to reduce energy costs and prevent costly de-liming procedures. The filter heads designed to fit the Everpure Claris filters are sturdy and long-lasting. They do not corrode, making them perfect for vending machines and the food service industry. There are three different models:
- one with 1/4″ QCF fittings
- one with 3/8” QCF fittings
- one with 3/8” BSP fittings
Both of the QCF filter heads come equipped with an automatic shut-off, a built-in flush port and an adjustable bypass; the BSP model includes all of these features as well as a flow restrictor and a backflow restrictor. All of them are commercial-grade water filter heads made specifically for Claris filter cartridges. The Claris heads are effortless to install. They do not need an electrical connection, and mounting them is merely a matter of following a simple illustration. The filter system can function as a freestanding unit, or it can be mounted to a wall or laid on its side. This makes it useable even in situations where space is limited. The only major requirements are that the water pressure leading to the system must be less than 116 psi and the shut-off valve must be placed upstream from the filter. If the pressure is too high, a pressure reducer valve should be fitted to the supply end of the system. For optimum performance of the Everpure Claris filter heads, it is important to change the filters once a year or whenever their water capacity is reached, whichever comes first. Following cartridge installation, flush out the system by turning the filter head clockwise. To determine whether the desired hardness level has been reached, utilize the Titration kit rather than checking mineral levels with hardness test strips. The Claris system can be used for any application where users desire to control the softness of their water. Typically, this includes coffee and espresso machines, steam cookers and ovens, and self-cooking systems.
Everpure Claris Saves Money And Offers Better Tasting Water
Food managers and restaurant owners looking for a high-quality commercial water filter system to decrease the costs of regular deliming will be impressed by Everpure Claris. This water softening and filtration system can save operators up to $2,500 annually, not to mention provide a crystal clear glass of iced tea to thirsty customers. Unlike reverse osmosis water filtration systems, Everpure Claris does not remove all minerals from the water. Minerals add flavor to drinks, so the filtration system allows the operator to adjust the relative water softness of the water supply, thus controlling of the alkalinity and mineral content of the water. Meanwhile, the five-step filtration process removes all unpleasant particles, odors and tastes. Everpure Claris blends perfectly to create great-tasting beverages every time. It also reduces scale in direct-injection steam ovens, which can save operators $1,400 in energy costs. Owners save another $1,100 by eliminating the expensive deliming process associated with hard water. In tests by Everpure, replacing a resin filter with Claris reduced water hardness grains by 50 percent. It’s also environmentally friendly when compared to a reverse osmosis water filtration system, which wastes two to three gallons of water for every gallon of purified water it creates. The savings on maintenance is reason enough to consider Everpure Claris Water Filter System. Customer satisfaction is simply the icing on the cake.
Installation & Setup Tips
Everpure Claris is less expensive to acquire than reverse osmosis systems, takes up less space, and is easy to install. The system can be mounted horizontally or vertically to the wall or be a freestanding unit.
- To mount and install, simply attach the included bracket to the wall and attach the hoses to the proper filter head.
- Lead a flush hose into a waste container or into a drain.
- Turn the filter head clockwise after you insert the filter cartridge in order to flush the cartridge.
- Align marks on the mounting bracket to the marks on the cartridge.
- After closing the flush/pressure release value, the system is ready for operation.
After installation, owners will need to adjust the bypass level according to their specific needs. A guide to determining ideal water hardness is supplied. Maintenance requires only the occasional filter change. As stated previously, scale and lime will no longer be an issue. Protect your equipment and deliver the best-tasting beverages in town with Everpure Claris.
