First Stage Filter:

Fluoride Removal using NEWDEF: Hydroxylapatite, also called hydroxyapatite (HA), is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite with the formula Ca5(PO4)3(OH). Our media is specially treated and activated using aluminIum to make it more effective. The principle of fluoride removal is based on the OH− ion in the media being replaced by fluoride producing fluorapatite.

It is one of the most effective adsorbents of fluoride with much faster reaction times than Activated Alumina. In comparative performance trials using Brisbane water containing Fluoride, aluminium activated Calcium Hydroxyapatite outperformed other media including activated alumina and fluoride specific ion exchange media.

Benefits of Calcium Hydroxyapatite media:

• Much faster contact times compared to activated alumina.
• Is a natural occurring mineral that is often used as a natural mineral supplement.
• Does not release any harmful substances into the water that is to be treated.
• Can be used for waste water treatment .
• Has a higher absorption capacity compared to other media used for de-fluoridation.

Pure Coconut Carbon Block Filters are made from a combination of high-performance coconut shell carbon, unique binders, and industry-leading manufacturing processes to deliver trade quality carbon block filters. They deliver exceptionally low pressure drop while maintaining a high dirt holding capacity with excellent contaminant reduction capabilities.

Pure Carbon Blocks are registered in compliance with NSF/ANSI 42, 53, and 61 for several things, including VOCs, THM’s, Lead & Heavy Metal Reduction, Chloramine Reduction & Chlorine Taste & Odour reduction. This also includes meeting standards of purity & safety of the materials used.

The technologically advanced LRC cartridge ensures that the reduction of heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, chrome, copper, and many more, as well as hazardous chemicals such as chlorine are removed from your drinking water, along with a monumental amount of other VOC’s and THM's. With our ageing water supplies it is not uncommon to have elevated levels of heavy metals in our treated water supplies. These elevated levels of heavy metals combined with the different chemicals being used to treat our water supplies can have serious health effects and can also cause severe problems within our homes.
