Publication number: 20150321923Abstract: A water filtration system is provided including a filter unit having a water inlet tube for receiving unfiltered water, and a water outlet tube for delivering filtered water. A pipe connector has an elongate body being connectable at one end to a faucet, and connectable at an opposite end to a water supply such that the connector delivers unfiltered water from the water supply to the filter unit via the water inlet tube, and the water is filtered and returned to the faucet via the water outlet tube. The elongate body includes a first port having a first cavity for delivering the unfiltered water to the filter unit, and a second port having a second cavity for receiving the filtered water from the filter unit. A divider wall is disposed inside the elongate body between the first and second ports for separating the filtered and unfiltered water.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2014Publication date: November 12, 2015Applicant: Paragon Water Systems, Inc.Inventor: Shangfu Ma

Patent number: 8888998Abstract: A head for a water filter system having a filter element including a three-way valve member movable between a first position, a second position, and a third position. When the valve member is in the first position, incoming water is directed to the filter element to remove sediment and impurities from the water. When the valve member is in the second position, the incoming water is blocked from passing through the filter element and the valve member. Lastly, when the valve member is in the third position, the incoming water passes through the valve member and not the filter element so that the filter element can be removed and replaced without interrupting the incoming water flow.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2010Date of Patent: November 18, 2014Assignee: Paragon Water Systems, Inc.Inventor: David Swain
