Advanced Ultrafiltration Without Wastewater
The Crystal Quest® SHARP Ultrafiltration (UF) Bottleless Water Cooler uses a 0.02-micron UltraFiltration membrane to provide cleaner, better-tasting water while maintaining excellent efficiency. Unlike reverse osmosis systems, SHARP UF filtration operates without producing wastewater, making it an eco-friendly and cost-effective choice for everyday hydration. Connected directly to your water line, it delivers an endless supply of filtered hot and cold water without the hassle of replacing bottles or waiting for deliveries.
How SHARP Ultrafiltration Works
The UF membrane acts as an ultra-fine barrier that helps reduce:
- Sediment, dirt, and rust
- Total Suspended Solids (TSS)
- Many microorganisms
- Particulates that can affect water quality and taste
Because ultrafiltration retains naturally occurring minerals, it provides fresh, clean water while preserving the minerals many people prefer in their drinking water.
Is UltraFiltration Enough?
For many homes and offices using municipal water, SHARP Ultrafiltration provides excellent filtration and improved taste without the complexity or wastewater associated with reverse osmosis.
However, if your water contains high levels of dissolved contaminants such as fluoride, nitrates, heavy metals, or excessive hardness, a Reverse Osmosis (RO) system may offer a higher level of purification.
Why Choose SHARP UF Over Reverse Osmosis?
No Wastewater
Every drop of filtered water is available for use, making UF a more water-efficient solution.
Retains Beneficial Minerals
Unlike RO, ultrafiltration leaves naturally occurring minerals in your water while helping reduce suspended particles and many microorganisms.
Lower Maintenance
No drain connection or wastewater line is required, simplifying installation and operation.
Fast, Continuous Flow
Provides filtered water with minimal pressure loss for convenient everyday use.
