Patent number: 7947181Abstract: An apparatus for purifying water according to one embodiment of the present invention may include a feed line fluidically connected to a reverse osmosis module containing a semipermeable membrane. The semipermeable membrane produces purified water and a concentrate. A drain line is also connected to the reverse osmosis module configured to transport concentrate. A product line is connected to the reverse osmosis module for transporting purified water. Operatively associated with the product line and drain line is a shut-off mechanism containing a pressure sensor operatively associated with an appliance configured to activate the shut-off mechanism.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2008Date of Patent: May 24, 2011Assignee: The Good Water Company, Inc.Inventor: Thomas Cartwright

Publication number: 20100307963Abstract: A water filtration system utilizing line pressure is disclosed. The water filtration system comprises an optional carbon or KDF filter unit or a series of membranes, line pressure filter system, water tank and water pump. Water from a pressurized water source (e.g., municipality water or well) is passed through the carbon or KDF filter and line pressure filter system prior to being deposited into the water tank. A pressure-regulated pump draws water from the water tank upon demand. An automatic pressure regulator on the pump ensures that the water pressure at water-dependent devices (e.g., showers) remains at a desired level regardless of demand. An optional ozone generator may also be incorporated into the system such that water in water tank is provided with O3. A second water tank may be dedicated to holding and supplying non-purified water thereby eliminating any waste water.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2010Publication date: December 9, 2010Applicant: THE GOOD WATER COMPANY, INC.Inventor: Michael E.
