Not necessarily - the important thing is to buy only from reputable dealers who know what they are selling. A name brand doesn't automatically mean that the water filter marketed is of superior quality. For instance, a name brand pitcher-type filter is rated at NSF Class 5. What exactly Class 5 means is not explained on the packaging, nor can a big box dealer or a department store sales associate advice you on the quality of the water filters they are selling.

Pour-through water filters (like Brita) do not remove fluoride from the water. Either reverse osmosis or distillation must occur for fluoride to be removed. The NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) has a complete database of water filtration devices on their website. You can search by manufacturer to find out what is removed with your device.

A treatment process is not necessary. However, if you like the flavor the water has after it passes through your filtration or home treatment system, it becomes a matter of taste and not one of water quality. Fluoridation facilities have been in operation IN Huntington Beach following a 1972 voter preference to fluoridate the City's water supply. In 1997, fluoridation in large water systems became mandatory statewide.

KDF is frequently found in home shower water filters because of its effectiveness at higher operating temperatures and flow rates.

The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water filter are not necessarily in all users' water. Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water filter are not necessarily in all users' water.

Our water filters are capable of reducing or eliminating bad tastes and odours, chlorine, and other organic contaminants to produce significantly improved drinking water. We use carbon block filters with integral scale inhibitors as standard because they have a higher contaminant removal ratio than GAC (Gas Activated Carbon) filters.

Pitcher and faucet-mounted filters generally rely solely on activated carbon filtration. While activated carbon is very effective at removing a wide range of contaminants, the problem with this type of filters is that they contain a very small amount of activated carbon. Further, the time the water spends in contact with the carbon, particularly with faucet mounted units is too little to provide full absorption.

Most likely yes, as long as the housing is not tapered. Our replacement filters are designed to be universal and to fit most other point-of-use and whole-house filter housings on the market. If in doubt, email a photo of your existing filter together with its physical measurements (diameter and length) to us and we will confirm for you.

There are 3 major categories of drinking water filters: Water Distillers, Reverse Osmosis Units, and Regular Filters. Below is a comparison of these categories: Excellent product water purity, very slow water production, uses electricity, kills cysts (giardia & cryptosporidium) and bacteria (including E.coli).

There are two main types of faucet-mount filters: granulated active carbon (GAC) and carbon block (CB)filters. In both cases, the amount of carbon contained is very little compared to conventional filters, and the frequency of cartridge changes is high. This makes them quite expensive purchases.

Some companies do not specify clearly the micron rating or the types of filter media used in their filters, making it difficult for consumers to know what they are buying. These companies may either sell inferior filters for less, or some companies can even make more profit by selling inferior filters at higher prices which they may fetch from unwary customers. However, we find that most companies selling unrated filters are simply unknowledgeable in what they are selling.

Cloudy water in a new tank is often a sign that you did not wash your gravel adequately. If you did, you may have a bacterial bloom. This bloom can be treated with products such as Acural F. For crystal clear water, an ultraviolet sterilizer is the best permanent cure.

The Katadyn water filters are the industry standard by wich all other filters are measured. They are used by international organizations and special forces, as well as serious survivalists, hunters and backpackers.

The most basic filters will eliminate bad taste and odor and most lead, copper, asbestos and chlorine. More advanced systems can also filter out lidane and atrazine as well as cryptosporidium and giardia (two harmful bacteria).

Bottled water is expensive, inconvenient, and you don't quite know its quality. Distillers remove microbes and most minerals and metals, but they may not remove volatile organic chemicals (often toxic) that evaporate at lower than 100°C temperature, because they evaporate first and recondense. Boiling proces drives out oxygen, so fish cannot live in distilled water.

The carbon filters will need to be changed every 6 months. When the UV filter needs to be changed the UV icon on the screen will light up in the SOHO indicating you need to change the UV light. For other machines, water dispensing will stop automatically in case of UV failure indicating that the UV needs to be changed.

Despite the dire warnings about the supposed dangers of chlorine put out by the makers of these filters, there is no epidemiological evidence I am aware of that the levels of residual chlorine in city water is damaging to the health of those who shower in it. (For that matter, there is little if any evidence of any health risk of drinking water in which residual chlorine is within EPA standards.

You can purchase, instead, a 46mm step up ring that will allow you to use standard SLR filters on your Holga.
