PURIFICATION PROCESS

Gray & Creech offers water treatment products that utilize multiple treatment methods, promising the most qualitative results. No single method is effective as a total water purification solution. Therefore, combining processes ensures that the water you drink is as clean and pure as it can be. You'll both see and taste the difference.

This diagram provides an overview of the purification process. Depending on the needs of the consumer, the process may be more or less complicated.

Below are some of the treatment methods used in our products.

Carbon Filtration
A filtering medium reduces chlorine and organic contaminants, but not all types of filters get rid of viruses, Cryptosporidium or Giardia. Also, water quality depends on the filter being replaced in a timely manner.

Reverse Osmosis
Water pressure moves water through membranes to reduce organic, inorganic and some biological contaminants. Reverse Osmosis, however, uses three to ten gallons of water to produce only one gallon of drinking water. The membranes need regular replacing and many contaminants are not removed.

Ultra Violet Light
UV light inactivates most biological contaminants such as viruses and bacteria. However, the light must be in contact long enough to be effective. When it is used alone, ultra violet light does not improve taste and odor.

Distillation
Water is boiled and the resulting steam is then cooled, condensing into fresh water. The contaminants that can't evaporate are left behind and then drained away. Used alone, this method of cleaning water can leave trace amounts of volatile organic chemicals (VOCs).
