Description

Easy to use PRIMING NOT REQUIRED 7 inch x 2 3/4 inch The Ultra Fluoride water filter provides you with the option to remove both naturally occurring and added fluoride from your drinking water. For use in most gravity filters including all Berkey ® 's except the Go Berkey ® . As this filter accomplishes a lot it is slower flowing then most filters so it is recommended to use at least 2. Each filter comes with a washer and a wing nut The ceramic shell is filled with granular activated carbon, to give superior flow rates in a gravity filter. As a standard, it offers removal of particles, pathogenic bacteria and cysts, additional removal capabilities for chlorine and organics and contains heavy metal reduction media to take out the toxin, lead. Product features: Removes up to 99.99% of some common contaminants Superior flow rates in gravity filter systems Ceramic filter candle made from 100% naturally occurring raw materials Anti-bacterial properties and silver used to prevent bacteria from regenerating on the ceramic element Whilst reducing contaminants, Doulton® ceramic filter candles retain naturally-occurring minerals that make water taste great STERASYL™ At the heart of all Doulton British Berkefeld filters is the Sterasyl™ ceramic. The ceramic is impregnated with silver to make it self-sterilizing. Silver inhibits the growth of bacteria. Sterasyl™ ceramics have a tightly controlled complex pore structure, which has unparalleled filtration properties. Sterasyl™ is effective in both gravity and pressure filters.Benefits: With its Absolute filtration rating (defined as >99.99%) of 0.9 microns, Sterasyl™ is highly effective against particulate contamination, pathogenic bacteria, cysts etc. SUPER STERASYL™ The Sterasyl™ ceramic is filled with granular activated carbon to produce the Super Sterasyl™ filter element. Among other things, activated carbon is very effective at removing chlorine and organics from water. Super Sterasyl™ uses granular activated carbon instead of an activated carbon block in order to give superior flow rates in a gravity filter. Benefits: Super Sterasyl™ has all the benefits of Sterasyl™ (removal of particles, pathogenic bacteria, cysts etc.), with additional chlorine and organics removal capabilities.
