Description
PureZone AAL10J
The AAL is a non-regenerable drinking water and general-purpose cartridge designed to reduce fluorides to below 0.5 ppm (>98%) . It is constructed totally from FDA-grade materials and media. The AAL's media is 1kg of pre-conditioned fine mesh Activated Alumina, a naturally occurring inorganic compound chemically inert and non-toxic.
This cartridge should be followed by a second filter such as the 10BCTO-PLUS (1 micron) as a fluoride cartridge may add taste in the water that the carbon filter can remove.

NSF 61-certified granular activated alumina (AA) is a specialized filter media designed to effectively remove fluoride and arsenic from drinking water. Made from aluminum oxide, AA has an exceptionally high surface area, which allows it to adsorb fluoride efficiently. In municipal water supplies, fluoride concentrations are typically around 2 ppm, and AA filters can reduce this to below 0.1 ppm.
Fluoride Removal Efficiency: AA filters are effective at reducing fluoride, with performance typically starting strong and gradually decreasing as the filter becomes saturated. The filter can continue to remove a significant portion of fluoride, depending on the level of saturation and water pH.
If the fluoride concentration is particularly high or the filter is used heavily, the effectiveness may decline sooner.
Note: There is no definitive time frame or capacity for when a fluoride filter should be replaced, nor a guaranteed lifespan. To ensure optimal performance, periodic water testing and filter replacement based on usage are recommended.
