General Info:

In 1901, inventor George Kneuper patented a new type of filter medium which used molecular attraction to remove microscopic particles from water. He named this material "Filtrine" and founded the Filtrine Mfg. Co in a small brick building in Brooklyn, NY. Mr. Kneuper's filters were soon installed in many of the new high-rise office buildings in Manhattan. Gradually Filtrine developed a reputation as the engineer's choice for drinking and process water filtration around the country.Over the next nine decades, Filtrine has outgrown plants in Brooklyn and Waldwick, NJ and was headquartered in the picturesque but bustling mill town of Harrisville, NH until January of 1999, when Filtrine once again outgrew its facility and moved to a larger, more modern facility in Keene, NH. Filtrine water filters are installed in the White House, the United Nations Building and in thousands of other fine buildings around the world. In addition to the small sediment filters first developed by Mr. Kneuper, Filtrine now manufactures industrial filtration systems with capacities up to 560 gpm to remove sediment, rust, taste, odors and many cancer-causing chemicals. We also offer ultraviolet sterilizers to kill bacteria and other micro-organisms.Filtrine is also proud of its reputation around the world as a problem solver in the cooling of liquids. Prior to the advent of electric refrigeration, Filtrine filters and ice coolers were installed around the country for both drinking water and process water applications. In 1925 we designed and built one of the first electric coolers and introduced the storage-type cooling tank still featured on all Filtrine chillers. This coil-in-tank evaporator proved to be virtually freeze-proof, a feature which appealed to major compressor manufacturers such as Carrier, York and Frigidaire who began specifying Filtrine cooling tanks with their condensing units.
