TAPP EcoPro Water Filter Refill Cartridges

THE TAPP WATER 5 STAGE FILTRATION SYSTEM Stage 1. Polypropylene screen wrapper This wraps around the carbon block and filters out larger microorganisms, sediment, silt, rust, scale particles and other impurities. It also protects the carbon block from being contaminated by human hands when it’s changed. Stage 2: Activated Carbon Adsorption The organic activated carbon removes chemical organic material, chlorine, chlorine byproducts (VOCs, THMs, HAAS, etc) taste, odor, pesticides, herbicides, PFAS and 50+ other contaminants. It also reduces heavy metals including lead, copper, mercury and more. Stage 3: Carbon Block Microfiltration The carbon block is highly compressed to prevent particles larger than 1-2 micrometers from passing through. This prevents for example all microplastics, suspended particles and most bacteria from passing through the filter. It also prevents most particles from pipe corrosion and biofilm (bacteria build inside the pipes) from passing through. Stage 4: Limescale & heavy metal inhibition This is a proprietary formula (referred to as PSS) used inside the carbon block that breaks down the mineral to prevent limescale from forming and further reduce heavy metals. Previously we did about 50% and now this is increased to 80% reduction. Stage 5: Strainer Mesh Filters out hair, sand, dirt and other impurities from the pipes for the filtered water.
