This carbon block water filter (housing unit sold separately) effectively filters municipal water, producing healthier, better-tasting drinking water.

The filter easily installs in the unit, which sits beside the sink and attaches directly to a kitchen faucet using a diverter valve. You can easily switch between unfiltered and filtered water directly.

Once your filter expires, please don't place it in your garbage bin. Take it to the closest waste drop-off station! You can find this at www.makethedrop.ca

Why should you treat your water supply?

All water supplies have certain levels of chemical contaminants (e.g. DBCP, EDB, TCE, PCE, THM) and other organic chemicals. Solids such as dirt, rush and lime may also be present, as well as dissolved solids such as calcium, iron and copper. Water quality can vary greatly according to location, water source, time of year, construction within the vicinity, road construction in the area, water main work in the area, fire department testing hydrants and changing municipal water treatment practices.

A properly designed water system can help to greatly reduce contaminants. The compressed carbon filter that fits in this unit is rated for 0.5 microns (a red blood cell is 6-8 microns) and does the following:

  • Reduces >99% of chlorine, taste, odour and cysts (through 20,000 Gallons)
