The water purifier according to a concept of the disclosure includes: a first module including a filter unit including a plurality of filters; a second module including a controller configured to control the first module, the second module coupled with the first module; and a water supply module including a display connected to the second module and displaying operation information of the water purifier, and a water supply nozzle receiving purified water from the first module and discharging the purified water to outside, wherein the controller is configured to control the display to display a purified water supply mode corresponding to the first module coupled with the second module.

A water treatment apparatus management system which manages a household water treatment apparatus located at or near a place of water use, and treats water before treatment with at least one type of filter to produce treated water for the place of water use. The system includes: a filter information storage unit storing information regarding an in-service filter used in the household water treatment apparatus; an information receiver receiving information regarding performance change of the in-service filter from the household water treatment apparatus; and a water type estimation means that estimates a water type of the water before treatment based on the information regarding performance change and the information regarding the in-service filter. The information regarding the in-service filter includes reference information of performance change of the same or the same type of filter as the in-service filter for each of plural types of reference water before treatment.

The present invention relates to a shower head which comprises a dispenser for optionally or selectively dispensing a fluid additive such as soap, simultaneously or separately with the water. The invention discloses an innovative mechanism using optimized fluid mechanics for spraying water or cleansing solution for a more hygienic and overall cleansing experience.

Described herein is a faucet arrangement, comprising a faucet unit and an electrolytic cell unit. The faucet unit is adapted to release water. The electrolytic cell unit is integrated with the faucet unit, and is adapted to release a controlled dosage of copper ions to water released by the faucet unit.

A faucet configured to discharge ozone water comprises a faucet body, a water mixing valve mechanism, a water processor, a control switch, a processor, a control valve, and a detector configured to detect whether water is flowing through the detector. The faucet body comprises a faucet outlet, and the water mixing valve mechanism comprises a cold water inlet connected to a cold water resource, a hot water inlet connected to a hot water resource, and a mixed water outlet. The water processor comprises a water processing passage and an ozone generator connected to the water processing passage. The control valve is disposed between the cold water resource and an inlet of the water processing passage, and an outlet of the water processing passage is connected to the faucet outlet. The detector is disposed between the mixed water outlet of the water mixing valve mechanism and the inlet of the water processing passage, and the processor is electrically connected to the control switch, the ozone generator, the detector, and the control valve to close the control valve and the ozone generator when the detector detects the water flowing through the detector.

A filter cartridge for a showerhead includes a frame having an upstream plate and a downstream plate, both having a respective plurality of openings formed therein. The frame defines at least one upstream void outside of the upstream plate, and at least one downstream void outside of the downstream plate. A filter element is coupled to the frame and has a conical configuration including upstream and downstream faces, and a sidewall extending between the upstream face and the downstream face, with the upstream face being smaller than the downstream face. The filter element is positioned relative to the frame with the upstream face in direct fluid communication with the at least one upstream void and the plurality of openings formed in the upstream plate, and the downstream face in direct fluid communication with at least one downstream void and the plurality of openings formed in the downstream plate.

Water disinfecting modules, water supply systems, methods of assembling a water supply system as well as method of disinfecting water are provided. The water disinfecting module includes a frame, hot and cold water flow switches and hot and cold UV treatment modules is provided. The frame supports a hot and cold water inlets and hot and cold water outlets. Hot and cold water flow switches are fluidly interposed between the respective inlets and outlets for sensing water flow. Hot and cold water UV treatment modules are fluidly interposed between corresponding inlets and outlets and are coupled to flow switches for activation upon sensing of water flow. All of the components are supported by the frame to form a complete unit. The systems and methods incorporate the use of such a water disinfecting module.

A water filter system that includes a base that receives water from a faucet, where the base includes a bottom support and a vertical support transversely extending from the bottom support. The vertical support includes a visual light display having visual indicators that indicate different parameters of the filter system. A filter cartridge is seated in the base, and defines a first chamber having at least one filter element, and a second chamber in fluid communication with the first chamber. An enhancement cartridge is removably inserted in the second chamber of the filter cartridge and includes an enhancement material for adding minerals to the water. A cover having an opening is configured to slidingly engage the vertical support of the base so that the visual light display is positioned within the opening of the cover and visible to a user.
