SMART WATER FILTER SYSTEM

摘要

Various examples are provided for smart water filter systems. In one example, a smart water filter system includes a solenoid valve (or other electrically operated valve) in a water supply line of a faucet, and a filter bank coupled to the water supply line. Activation of the valve can stop the flow of unfiltered water through the faucet while allowing the flow of filtered water through the faucet. In another example, a smart water filter system includes a three-port solenoid (or electrically operated) valve coupled to a faucet, and a filter bank coupled to the water supply line and to a second inlet port of the three-port solenoid valve. Activation of the three-port valve can stop the flow of unfiltered water through the faucet while allowing the flow of filtered water through the faucet.

主权项

1. A smart water filter system, comprising:
a solenoid valve comprising an inlet coupled to a water supply connection and an outlet coupled to a faucet feed connection, the water supply connection configured to connect to a water supply line and the faucet feed connection configured to couple to a faucet via a faucet feed line; a filter inlet connection coupled between the water supply connection and the inlet of the solenoid valve, the filter inlet connection configured to be coupled to a filter bank; and a filter outlet connection coupled between the outlet of the solenoid valve and the faucet feed connection, the filter outlet connection configured to be coupled to the filter bank; where activation of the solenoid valve stops flow of unfiltered water through the faucet feed line while allowing flow of only filtered water from the filter bank through the faucet feed connection.
