This unit houses a custom designed multi-stage washable ceramic cartridge that is by far the best on the market.

First a washable sub-micron Porcelain Ceramic pre-filter prevents clogging of the cartridge and thereby extends its effective life. The ceramic pre filter also acts as an automatic shut off valve by slowing water flow to indicate that the ceramic needs cleaning without risking contamination of the cartridge or drinking water.

Impregnation of the ceramic element with silver renders its surface bacteriostatic – that is, bacteria cannot grow on the surface. This ensures that you can change or clean the cartridge with no fear of contamination. In contrast to the silver which is used in activated carbon filters, the silver in the ceramic element is in a form which will not leach out, so its effectiveness exceeds the life of the element. Free silver ions (Ag+) have a toxic effect on micro-organisms even in relatively low concentrations. They have a highly fungicidal, bactericidal and algaecide effect, therefore removing all harmful bacteria, parasites and viruses including Giardia Lamia Cysts, Cryptosporidium, E Coli, Fecal Coliforms, Hepatitis B and Salmonella.

Stage three removes all heavy metals including lead, mercury, aluminum, iron, copper, zinc, magnesium and silver.

Stage four is a solid carbon block, which is so compressed that it is the equivalent of over 300,000 square yards of filtering media.

Most of our filter faucets come with a choice of brushed steel or polished chrome.

On the left shows how easy it is to wash the ceramic surface. On the right is a cartridge I recently replaced for a client. The surface was completely black, but when I scratched it with my nail it was the same white colour as a new cartridge. Nice to see what you didn’t have to drink.
