Filter
- Effective Removal: GAC is highly effective at removing a wide range of contaminants.
- Improves Taste and Odor: It can significantly improve the taste and odor of water.
- Relatively Inexpensive: Compared to other filtration methods, GAC filters are relatively affordable.
- Arsenic removal to 80-90%
- Fluoride removal to 80-90%
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”.
Service life
The AFAC10 cartridge has a typical service life of 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.
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.
- Micron rating - 5
- Maximum flow rate 2lpm

For optimal performance and to prevent water hammer damage, we recommend installing a pressure limiting valve before the housing.
Installation
Step 1: Shut Off Water Supply
- Turn off the water supply to the dishwasher by shutting off the cold-water feed under the sink.
Step 2: Disconnect Dishwasher Water Feed Line
- Locate the cold-water feed line under the sink that supplies the dishwasher.
-
Use an adjustable wrench to disconnect the 1/2" flexi hose that runs from the water supply to the dishwasher.
Step 3: Fit the brass 1/2" male threads
locate the brass threaded fitting supplied with the filter to the inlet and outlet of the filter using thread tape.
Step 4: Connect 1/2" Flexi Hose to Filter Inlet
- Take one of the new 1/2" stainless steel flexi hoses and wrap the threads with Teflon tape to ensure a tight seal.
- Attach one end of the new hose to the water supply connection (where the dishwasher was previously connected).
- Connect the other end of this hose to the inlet of your underbench water filter system.
Step 4: Connect the Filter Outlet to the Dishwasher and Faucet
- Take the second 1/2" stainless steel flexi hose and attach one end to the outlet of the water filter.
- Attach the other end of this hose to the existing kitchen faucet's cold-water feed connection. Ensure both connections are secure.
Step 5: Reconnect the Dishwasher Water Feed
- Using the same 1/2" hose, connect the dishwasher back to the kitchen faucet’s cold-water feed. This ensures both the faucet and dishwasher are supplied with filtered water.
Step 6: Turn On Water and Check for Leaks
- Slowly turn the water supply back on.
- Check all connections for leaks, including the inlet and outlet of the filter housing, and the connections to the faucet and dishwasher.
Step 7: Flush the System
- Run water through the kitchen faucet for a few minutes to flush out any air or particles from the filter system.
