4.2 Filtration Stages

This diagram illustrates the 4-stage filtration technology, including PP membrane, Reverse Osmosis membrane, Prefilter CTO, and Postfilter CTO, ensuring intensive cycle filtration and double safety.

1. PP Membrane (5 µm): Blocks physical particles such as rust, sediment, and sand.
2. Reverse Osmosis Membrane (0.0001 µm): Removes heavy metals, arsenic, mercury, chromium, fluoride, nitrate, PFA, PFOA, PFOS, and other dissolved solids.
3. Prefilter CTO (0.5 µm): Removes odors, residual chlorine, and organic matter.
4. Postfilter CTO (0.1 µm): Further improves water taste.

4.3 Control Panel

The control panel features a real-time TDS monitor, filter life indicator, and options for selecting water volume (0.4L, 0.8L, 1.2L), along with reset and flush functions.

• TDS Display: Shows the TDS value of purified water.
• Source TDS Button: Press to view the TDS value of the raw tap water.
• Pure TDS Button: Press to view the TDS value of the purified water.
• Filter Life Indicator: Lights indicate remaining filter life.
• Water Volume Selection: Buttons for 0.4L, 0.8L, 1.2L dispensing.
• Reset/Flush Button: Used for resetting filter life after replacement and initiating a system flush.
• Energy Saving Mode: The unit enters standby after a period of inactivity.

4.4 Glass Carafe

The reinforced glass carafe is designed for durability and food-grade quality, preventing secondary contamination.

5. Setup

5.1 Unpacking and Placement

1. Carefully remove all components from the packaging.
2. Place the main unit on a flat, stable, and dry surface. Ensure there is adequate space around the unit for ventilation.
3. Keep the unit away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

5.2 Filter Installation

To install filters, align the cartridge with its designated slot and gently push and twist until securely in place.

1. Locate the filter compartments on the side of the main unit.
2. Insert the Composite Filter (CF) into its designated slot. Align the filter with the opening and gently push and twist clockwise until it locks into place.
3. Insert the Reverse Osmosis Filter (RO) into its designated slot, following the same procedure.
4. Ensure both filters are securely installed.

5.3 Initial Flush

Before first use, the system requires an initial flush to activate the filters and remove any manufacturing residues. This process typically takes about 30 minutes.

1. Fill the raw water tank with tap water.
2. Place the empty glass carafe under the dispenser.
3. Plug in the power adapter. The unit will power on.
4. Press the "Flush" button (or the Reset/Flush button) to initiate the flushing cycle.
5. Allow the system to complete several cycles, dispensing water into the carafe and collecting wastewater in the rear tank. Discard the flushed water.
6. Repeat the process of filling the raw water tank and flushing until the water tastes clean and the TDS reading stabilizes.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Filling the Raw Water Tank

1. Remove the raw water tank from the back of the unit.
2. Fill the tank with potable tap water. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
3. Place the tank back into the unit, ensuring it is properly seated.

6.2 Dispensing Purified Water

The purifier dispenses clean water directly into the glass carafe or your chosen container.

1. Place the glass carafe or a cup under the dispenser spout.
2. Select the desired water volume (0.4L, 0.8L, or 1.2L) by pressing the corresponding button on the control panel.
3. The unit will begin dispensing purified water. It will automatically stop once the selected volume is reached.
4. The system will automatically perform a short flush cycle after dispensing. Wait for this cycle to complete before removing the carafe or refilling the raw water tank.

6.3 Monitoring TDS Levels

• The main display shows the TDS level of the purified water by default.
• To check the TDS level of the source water, press the "Source TDS" button.
• To return to the purified water TDS display, press the "Pure TDS" button.

6.4 Water Efficiency

The Ecoviva system achieves a 3:1 pure water to wastewater ratio, indicating efficient water usage.

The system produces purified water with a 3:1 pure water to wastewater ratio. The wastewater is collected in a separate compartment in the raw water tank. This wastewater can be used for non-potable purposes such as watering plants, but should not be consumed.

7. Maintenance

7.1 Filter Replacement

The filter life indicator on the control panel will alert you when it's time to replace the filters. Filter lifespan can vary based on water quality and usage, but typically the CF filter lasts up to 12 months, and the RO filter also up to 12 months.

Composite Filter (CF)

Reverse Osmosis Filter (RO)

1. Unplug the power adapter from the wall outlet.
2. Remove the raw water tank and empty any remaining water.
3. Twist the old filter cartridge counter-clockwise and pull it out.
4. Insert the new filter cartridge, aligning it with the slot, then push and twist clockwise until it locks into place.
5. Repeat for the other filter if both need replacement.
6. After replacing filters, plug in the unit and press and hold the "Reset/Flush" button for 3-5 seconds until the filter life indicator resets.
7. Perform an initial flush cycle as described in Section 5.3 to activate the new filters.
