Water entering your home or building’s water supply is tested for impurities. These impurities are checked before it routes for use. Impurities in water could include bacteria, viruses, chemicals, toxins, fertilizers, minerals, lead, biological weapons, radioactive materials and radioactive waste.

Sensors
Sensors are located throughout the device to check for impurities in the water as it travels through the house or building’s plumbing. Certain sensors decide how to route the water through various treatments within the device.

Treatment
The impure water could include multi-level filtration and heating/cooling cycles for a prescribed time period to reduce impurities below an EPA-approved threshold. If the water still retains impurities after treatment in the device, the device can decide to divert the water out of the house or building to prevent consumption and illness.
