4.3.3 Prefilter Housing
The Prefilter Housing chamber has been specially designed to house the MAYTAG Carbon Prefilter or
Stainless Steel Prefilter.
4.3.4 System Housing
The System Housing, contains the patented ZENON hollow fibre ultrafiltration membrane. This System is
the centre of the entire MAYTAG Whole Home Water Filtration System. Small particles including
bacteria, parasites and certain viruses are removed from the water and held until they are automatically
flushed to drain once per day. There are thousands of individual hollow fibres that allow maximum
household flow with minimum pressure loss.
4.3.5 Backpulse Tank
The Backpulse Tank pushes filtered water through the membrane fibres, in reverse direction, to expel any
trapped particles from the membrane pores. Backpulsing occurs during the Automatic Daily Cleaning
Cycle (see section 4.4.3).
4.3.6 Lock Ring
The Lock Ring provides stability between the System Housing and the Backpulse tank. This component
does not provide System sealing.
4.3.7 Stand
The Stand provides support and stability for the MAYTAG Whole Home Water Filtration System. The
Stand is connected to the Backpulse Tank and fastened to the household floor.
