FAQ

Q: What pharmaceuticals and compounds does the 041253-006 filter reduce?

A: The Pharmaceuticals Filter is certified to NSF/ANSI 401 standards for the reduction of 12 specific compounds: Atenolol (a beta-blocker), Bisphenol A (BPA, a plastic component), Carbamazepine (an anticonvulsant), DEET (an insect repellent), Estrone (a hormone), Ibuprofen (an NSAID pain reliever), Meprobamate (an anxiolytic), Metolachlor (a herbicide), Naproxen (an NSAID), Nonyl phenol (a surfactant), Phenytoin (an anticonvulsant), and Trimethoprim (an antibiotic).

Q: Which Oasis water systems is the 041253-006 Pharmaceuticals Filter Kit compatible with?

A: The Universal Pharmaceuticals Filter Kit is designed to work with multiple Oasis product lines including P8AC series, On-wall Bottle Fillers with Oasis water coolers, Radii series, Modular series, Fully Recessed PLF8 models, PCP series (except hot models), and PLF_FA & P_FA series (except hot models). The kit includes detailed instructions for installation in each compatible model.

Q: How often does the Pharmaceuticals filter cartridge need to be replaced?

A: The Pharmaceuticals filter cartridge has a service life of 12 months or 725 gallons (2,744L), whichever comes first. For high-traffic installations, more frequent replacement may be necessary based on water usage. Replacement cartridges (part #041670-001) can be obtained by contacting an Oasis distributor.

Detailed Features & Benefits

Advanced Pharmaceutical Reduction Technology: The Pharmaceuticals filter employs specialized media designed to target and reduce a wide range of pharmaceutical compounds and chemicals that conventional water treatment systems typically don't address. This technology specifically targets trace amounts of medications (including beta-blockers, anticonvulsants, and pain relievers), hormones, pesticides, and industrial chemicals like BPA that increasingly find their way into water supplies. As awareness grows about the potential health impacts of long-term exposure to these compounds, this filtration technology represents an important advancement in point-of-use water treatment, providing an additional layer of protection against emerging contaminants.

Comprehensive Multi-Contaminant Approach: Beyond its pharmaceutical reduction capabilities, the 041253-006 filter provides extensive protection against a wide range of other water quality concerns. Its NSF/ANSI 42 certification ensures reduction of chlorine, unpleasant tastes, odors, and particulates that affect water palatability. The NSF/ANSI 53 certification confirms reduction of harmful lead, which can leach from older plumbing systems, and potentially dangerous cysts that may be present in municipal water. Additionally, its NSF/ANSI 401 certification includes reduction of microplastics, an emerging contaminant of growing concern. This multi-contaminant approach means facilities can address numerous water quality issues with a single filtration solution.

Universal Design & Integration: The 041253-006 kit was engineered for maximum compatibility across the Oasis product lineup, making it an ideal retrofit solution for existing installations. Using the same filter head as other Oasis filtration systems, it facilitates easy cartridge replacement and streamlined inventory management for maintenance teams. The kit includes all necessary components for professional installation, from mounting hardware to quick-connect fittings and appropriate tubing lengths. The automatic shut-off valve prevents messes during filter changes, while the quarter-turn installation system means maintenance can be performed quickly with minimal tools. This thoughtful design ensures that facilities can upgrade their water quality protection with minimal hassle, downtime, or specialized expertise.
