WATER TREATMENT DEVICE

The present disclosure concerns a device for treating water of the kind intended for treating running water from a domestic water supply system or other sources of pressurized water, to obtain filtered or treated water, for example, of drinking water quality. The water treatment device comprises a housing with a running water inlet and a treated water outlet, the housing defining: two or more cylindrical water treatment compartments, each having a longitudinal axis and having a water compartment inlet and a water compartment outlet, the treatment compartments being arranged in parallel one to the other; a water inlet-manifold having an inlet-manifold ingress in liquid communication with said running water inlet, and at least two inlet-manifold egresses, each of the egresses being in liquid communication with one of the water compartment inlets; a water outlet-manifold having an outlet-manifold egress in liquid communication with the treated water outlet, and at least two outlet-manifold ingresses, each of the ingresses being in liquid communication with the water compartment outlets; each of the two or more water treatment compartments comprising: a first water treatment medium in the form of a tubular porous block having a tubular block diameter, and formed about an axial lumen having a lumen diameter, the ratio between the block diameter and the lumen diameter being between 1.5 and 2, and a second water treatment medium enveloping the first water treatment medium, the second water treatment media being in the form of a pleated fibrous sheet. La présente invention concerne un dispositif de traitement des eaux du type destiné à traiter l'eau courante provenant d'un système d'alimentation en eau domestique ou d'autres sources d'eau sous pression, pour obtenir de l'eau filtrée ou traitée ayant, par exemple, les qualités de l'eau potable. Le dispositif de traitement des eaux comprend un boîtier avec une entrée d'eau courante et une sortie d'eau traitée, le boîtier définissant : deux compartiments de traitement des eaux cylindriques ou plus, ayant chacun un axe longitudinal et ayant une entrée de compartiment d'eau et une sortie de compartiment d'eau, les compartiments de traitement étant agencés en parallèle entre eux ; un collecteur d'admission d'eau ayant une entrée de collecteur d'admission en communication liquide avec ladite entrée d'eau courante, et au moins deux sorties de collecteur d'admission, chacune des sorties étant en communication liquide avec
