Re: [A/S] Everpure water filter

Everpure suggests the Superchlorination/Dechlorination Method as the 
best way for RV owners to get reliable water.  Superchlorination is a 
simple procedure where chlorine is added to the water increased 
amounts to provide a minimum chlorine residual of 3.0 mg/L for a 
minimum contact time of five minutes. Dechlorination is then used to 
remove excess chlorine which causes unpleasant tastes and odors. 
(Refer to EPA Manual, page 83. Visit www.epa.gov). 

Everpure's Water Treatment System uses the 
superchlorination/dechlorination method. In a few simple steps, you 
sanitize your water distribution system and superchlorinate the water 
coming into the RV and get the assurance and extra measure of 
protection to keep your travels fun and free of potentially 
contaminated water. 

It begins with manual superchlorination by using Everpure's easy-to-
follow kit. Then, water is directed through the Everpure ADC filter 
cartridge where bad tastes and odors are reduced. Everpure's 
exclusive precoat filtration process removes up to 99.9+% particles 
as small as 1/2 micron in size.  The ADC cartidge carries NSF 
Certification under Standards 42 and 53. 

The ADC filter cartridge is disposable and easy to remove and 
install. The sanitary quick-change cartridge requires no disassembly 
and is equipped with a built-in water shut-off valve. The filter is 
sleekly designed to fit into narrow, confined areas. It includes all 
fittings and tubing necessary for easy installation and plumbs into a 
pressure system on existing faucet or separate faucet. An anti-freeze 
diverter is also included to simplify winterizing procedures. 

Every time water passes through the ADC filter cartridge, impurities 
are trapped and held in the microscopic pores of the filter element. 
As the system is used and these pores fill up, water flow gradually 
decreases. When the flow becomes too slow for your convenience, the 
cartridge should be replaced. If not, flow will cease entirely. It's 
a good idea to carry a spare cartridge just in case you draw water 
from an exceptionally dirty source. Even if decreasing flow doesn't 
necessitate a cartridge change, the we recommends that water filter 
cartridges be changed at least once yearly. (Everpure ADC replacement 
cartridges are available at most RV stores in the U.S.A. and Canada.) 

It sounds like your water tank is full of chlorine, and then you use 
the filter to remove it for drinking and cooking
