Point Of Use Water Purification Systems - Clean, Safe, Contaminant-Free Water In Your Home

!±8± Point Of Use Water Purification Systems - Clean, Safe, Contaminant-Free Water In Your Home

Point of use water purification systems (known as POUs) refer to units that attach directly to the faucet or shower and produce H20 on an as-needed basis as opposed to whole house units which connect directly to the water main and treat everything that flows in from that pipe. There are benefits and drawbacks to both types of units.

Point of use filters typically are less expensive than whole house systems; a shower unit may cost 70$ while a whole house unit may cost 700$. Whole house units usually require professional installation while POUs don't, plus the whole house units can require more maintenance.

There is also some wisdom to using point of use water purification units as opposed to whole house units because POU-treated H20 is used instantly. In a whole house system, the incoming H20 is treated, then stored in a tank and piped throughout the house. It is possible for it to pick up microbes and contaminants along the way from tank to glass. If your plumbing is older, point of use water purification systems are generally a better option.

However, there are drawbacks to point of use filters. If you want to attach one to all your faucets, this will mean more cost for purchasing and maintaining the products. Reverse osmosis or distillation point of use water purification units also have a tendency to work slowly and may not process enough H20 to suit your needs.

These drawbacks can usually be overcome by purchasing the right type of product. Point of use water purification systems that are carbon-based are the most efficient type of units. Carbon is better than ceramic, reverse osmosis, or distillation because it blocks contaminants the most efficiently but does not remove important minerals from H20. Carbon units also work more quickly and can process greater volumes of H20 than other types of systems.

However, be aware that the best carbon units exist in multi-step forms. While many homes and offices have inexpensive carbon pitcher-style units, these products only contain one strainer. Point of use filters become clogged over time, and if there is only one strainer, it is easy for contaminants to slip past.

The best units contain more than one carbon-based filtration system so that the H20 is run through a multi-step process, ensuring that all pathogens and other unwanted elements are removed.

Generally, most people think of treating just the H20 they use for drinking and cooking, so a point of use water purification unit is most likely to be found in the kitchen. However, it is a good idea to install one in your shower. The chlorine that H20 contains dries out hair and skin and can accelerate the aging process. Additionally, point of use water purification systems in your bathroom make it easier for you to wash away soap and keep mineral build-up from accumulating.

Ideally it is wise to treat all the H20 that enters your house, but once water has left a whole house purifying unit, it may pick up some contaminants on its way to your faucets. Point of use filters give you access to clean, safe H20 whenever you need it - the second it leaves the unit, it is in your glass. Point of use water purification systems are one of the the best ways you can provide your household with safe, clean H20.

Black Horse Models Super Air Glow to Electric Conversion

!±8± Black Horse Models Super Air Glow to Electric Conversion

When I was a boy my Father would take me to one of many local flying fields. My job would be to clean down the oil covered models after each flight. Or if I was lucky enough I got to hold a model and point it skyward during the all-important run up stage.

While I gravitated to the scale and warbird models, the guys who flew the pattern ships always seemed to have more fun. Unlike the warbirds that would fly the pattern, loop and touch and go the pattern guys were crazy! W.O.T passes inverted at altitudes nearly dragging the rudder were common! These pattern guys always seemed to press their luck and came away smiling even in the event of a disaster.

Flash forwarding 30 years the Black Horse Models Super Air looks a lot like the Birdies, Kaos and Kwiks that ruled the skies all those years ago.

I first saw this model sold under the Graupner name a few years ago. With a price tag of over 0 for an ARF I never seemed to be able to afford it. Till now that is.

The Super Air is now sold under the Black Horse Models name. For a mere and a phone call to Hobby People you can have one delivered to your door ASAP!

My Model arrived double boxed and neatly packaged. The first thing you notice about the model is how light it is! You can read the complete build thread here http://tommydsblog.blogspot.com/ but I can tell you the airframe alone with it's ½ lb miscellaneous parts bag weighted in at a mere 3.5lbs!

The second thing you notice is the covering. As the model is made in Vietnam I would describe the covering as Vietnamese wallpaper! Seriously, if you have purchased any ARFs from the 80s you know exactly what I'm talking about. It's the type of covering no matter how taut it is will wrinkle up like your Grannies left butt cheek after some time in direct sunlight. A heat gun is all it takes to return the tautness but this can get tiring for some.

Covering aside it really is a nice model. All the control surfaces are pre-hinged and those hinges are pinned. The hardware supplied is a grade above what normally comes with typical ARFs out of China.

If you were building this model for wet power you could put it together in but a few hours. As mine was going to employ electric power some thinking had to be done to accommodate a battery pack, ESC and large outrunner motor. My reason for converting this model was the ability to fly it almost anywhere. Truly it is scary just how quiet this .46 size pattern plane is.

I chose the E-Flite Power 46 outrunner for power coupled to a Castle Creations 80A Phoenix speed controller. The motor mounted easily using plastic standoffs found at the local hardware store. The standoffs are using the stock down and right thrust of the firewall.

Directly behind the nose gear a battery hatch was built. In the earliest conception I had thoughts of running a 4 cell Lipo in the 3500 MA range. This hatch would have worked perfect. However the model flew on a 5S pack as I could not obtain the performance on 4 cells I desperately wanted.

The all up weight of the model is 6 lbs ready to fly. The Power 46 E-Flite Outrunner makes 1200W for a cost of 64Amps. Both the motor and Max Amps brand 5 cell LiPo pack come down cool after a 10 minute flight.

Maiden Flight Report

There is something majestic when a trike leaves the ground in a shallow climb. Even ugly planes somehow look graceful. Well forget graceful, the Super Air with 1200W will jump into the air behind that 12" prop if you prefer that style of flying. I think the pattern guys of the 70s and 80s would have loved to see that!

Having read a lot of magazine articles I'm always amazed when I read about another pilots report of ZERO trim required. I mean come on, zero trim? Anyways apparently I have joined the Zero trim club. I did not touch the trim levers at all during the 5-minute maiden flight. How's that for an ARF building straight and true right out of the box!

The model has a nice top speed straight and level with very little ballooning when moving from part to full throttle. My setup was right out of the manual. While the model tracked fine, and passed a dive test I think it flies slightly nose heavy at the advertised CG. The roll rate was ok as was elevator and rudder authority. Inverted flight needed a fair amount of elevator to keep the nose up. Rate of climb was especially nice with BIG loops.I set up and landed hot as I really did not know what to expect. My overall impression is this model gives away NOTHING to a glow at 1200 watts.
