A documentation-based review of the manufacturer’s listing and specifications. How we reviewed it
Our assessment
The Lead Removal Water Filtration System belongs on a comparison list when its documented application matches your needs. The important next step is to verify the configuration and compatibility, rather than deciding from the product photograph alone.
What the listing gives you
- Configuration choices are documented
Flow Rate: 7 GPM, 10 GPM, 20-22 GPM, 30 GPM (all options are listed below)
- Supporting documents are available
The manufacturer links technical or installation documents. We have kept those references with the product research below.
- Identifiable part numbers
CQE-CO-02174, CQE-CO-02175, CQE-CO-02176 and 6 more. These are useful for asking the manufacturer about an exact configuration.
What deserves a closer look
- Fit comes first
Treat selection as a project specification: confirm the capacity, connections, utilities, commissioning and service requirements in writing.
- Look beyond the listed price
Compare the installed scope, maintenance support and consumables with the equipment quote. A catalog configuration may still require application-specific confirmation.

Lead (Pb) is a soft and heavy metal used in a surprisingly wide range of industrial applications and processes. It is a highly poisonous neurotoxin that can accumulate in both soft tissue and bone, leading to brain and nervous system disorders. Exposure to lead is especially dangerous for young and developing children. Most commonly it is introduced to the human body by ingestion of contaminated water and food, although it can be introduced through inhalation and direct contact as well.
How It Works
Our SMART Multimedia is a special house blend of 2 types of coconut-shell GAC (including Catalytic) with 2 types of Eagle Redox Alloys® (9500 & 6500) and anion exchange resin. This blend effectively reduces and removes heavy metals, chlorine & chloramine, pesticides & herbicides, pharmaceutical by-products & other inorganic substances such as petroleum byproducts. This blend will help the oxidation process of the lead for easier removal. To read about the ERA® Oxidation/Reduction Process, click here. In addition to the oxidation process, we also include the Crystal Quest Eagle Softener Resin which is a strong acid cation exchange resin. It should be regenerated with either potassium chloride or sodium chloride. Typically, it requires about 10% more salt to regenerate with potassium chloride salt when compared to sodium chloride salt. The advantage of potassium salt is that it does not contribute to a high sodium diet and the backwash can be discharged onto a lawn or garden. Sodium chloride salt will kill plants, so it must be discharged into a sewer system. Salt and Iron Out remove iron levels up to 4 ppm. Media can be regenerated at 8, 12 and 15 lbs. per ft3 salt dosages.
