About
The Filterpure AFAC10 is a non-regenerable drinking water cartridge using preconditioned Actival, a fluoride selective media, plus Granular Activated Carbon to
remove chlorine and “Tastes and Odours”. Laboratory and field results show that the usual 1 mg/L fluoride level added to water supplies is reduced by 80 to 90%*.
The AFAC10 cartridge has a typical service life of four to six months in normal family use.
Cartridge life depends on feedwater quality and it is often beneficial to use a sediment removal prefilter to prevent premature clogging of the media’s active sites. High pH, excessive flow rate, and bicarbonate alkalinity of over 100mg/L will reduce the effectiveness of the Actival media. These cartridges are not for whole-house use and are for cold water service.
Arsenic
The Actival media has been shown to reduce arsenic levels from 0.12 mg/L to below 0.02, but total capacity has not been determined so regular testing is recommended if arsenic is present. *For 80-90% reduction in fluoride level, corresponds to 2000 litres
of water at 1 mg/L fluoride
