Flow is how much, at once.
GPM means gallons per minute. Consider fixtures used at the same time, source pressure and installation—not bathroom count alone.

Choosing your Purative
Essential is the compact, lower-flow format. Plus increases flow and capacity. Max offers greater reference capacity than Plus—not a higher reference flow.
GPM means gallons per minute. Consider fixtures used at the same time, source pressure and installation—not bathroom count alone.
Reference gallon capacity helps compare models. It is not a guarantee of months between filter changes.

Cartridge format is not the assembled system’s dimensions. Before purchase, review the model’s installed dimensions, connection size and cartridge-change clearance with your installer.
Installation is arranged separately. Your water may need additional treatment. Replacement timing depends on water quality, usage and model-specific service guidance.
Reference flow and capacity relate to the corresponding underlying system documentation. Confirm model selection and applicable performance details for your water. Listed prices are subject to final ordering details.

A health-first approach
Home Plus treats water before it reaches the rest of the home.
That means the same treatment philosophy applies before water reaches the kitchen, showers, bathrooms, laundry, and household fixtures.
How Purative works
Captures larger sediment and helps manage scale formation.
The advanced filtration core uses high-surface-area media and an electropositive filtration approach.
The final carbon stage supports applicable reduction claims and helps polish the water before it continues through the home.
Designed with intention
Water & Wellness wanted a whole-home platform that went beyond scale, spotting, and appliance protection.
Home Plus brings the Purative health-first philosophy into a larger residential format while preserving the same compact, serviceable design.
Point-of-entry installation
Home Plus installs at the main water line so treated water continues to the fixtures and appliances throughout the home.

What can it prove?
From sediment and chlorine to PFAS and microbial concerns, different contaminants call for different treatment mechanisms. Explore the treatment approach and performance basis for each category.
| Contaminant or concern | Treatment approach | Performance support |
|---|---|---|
| Chlorine, taste & odor | Carbon filtration | NSF/ANSI 42 claim on corresponding platform models¹ |
| Sediment & suspended particles | Sediment capture and fine-particle filtration | Particulate Class I listed under NSF/ANSI 42¹ |
| PFAS, including PFOA & PFOS | MicronGuard™ and carbon treatment | Total PFAS listed under NSF/ANSI 53; not every PFAS compound¹ |
| Bacteria | MicronGuard™ capture | Developer-reported laboratory performance² |
| Viruses | MicronGuard™ capture | Developer-reported laboratory performance² |
| Cysts | MicronGuard™ capture | Developer-reported reduction² |
| Spores | MicronGuard™ capture | Developer-reported reduction² |
| Lead | Advanced media and carbon treatment | Developer-reported reduction² |
| Other heavy metals | Media-dependent capture or adsorption | Developer-reported performance; varies by metal and form² |
| Pesticides | Activated-carbon adsorption | Developer-reported, compound-specific performance² |
| Pharmaceuticals | Advanced media and carbon adsorption | Developer-reported, compound-specific performance² |
| Hard-water scale | Salt-free scale management | Designed to limit scale; does not remove hardness minerals |
¹ Certified claims refer to corresponding underlying platform models. ² Developer-reported laboratory or technical results are separate from certification. Performance varies by model, contaminant, water conditions and service life.
Follow local boil-water advisories. Filtration alone should not be relied on to make microbiologically unsafe or unknown-quality water safe.

Purative provides whole-home filtration at the main water line. AquaTru provides reverse-osmosis purification for drinking and cooking water.
Start my water assessment →Filtration targets specific particles and contaminants. A conventional softener removes hardness minerals through ion exchange. Reverse osmosis reduces dissolved solids for drinking and cooking water. Purative combines filtration and scale management; it does not replace a softener when soft water is the goal.
It depends on your water and goals. Purative provides whole-home filtration. AquaTru adds reverse osmosis at the kitchen for drinking and cooking water. You may choose either approach or both; a water review can help you decide.

Purative uses a three-stage cartridge assembly. Before you order, we’ll walk through the exact package contents and the plumbing parts your installation needs. Professional installation is recommended at the main water line, with isolation valves, a service bypass and room to change cartridges. Water & Wellness fulfills the system order; installation is arranged separately.
Current listed system prices are $1,295 for Home Essential, $2,995 for Home Plus and $4,500 for Home Max. Matched replacement sets are listed at $349, $490 and $795 respectively. Plan separately for installation and any additional treatment your water requires. Final shipping, tax and order details will be provided before purchase.
Replacement timing depends on water quality, usage and model-specific service guidance. Reference gallon capacity is not a guaranteed calendar interval. We’ll review care requirements before purchase; replacement-set ordering is not open yet.
Start with a water review. Tell us about your source water, concerns and existing treatment. Keep any existing treatment in place until the proposed setup has been reviewed for your water and installation.
