control system that reduces bacteria, chlorine, taste and odour, ensuring you

The washable rust & sediment pre-lter prevents dirt and insects from
entering the system. Water ows into the clean water tank through the
Long-life lter. Inside the Long-life lter, the Japanese HF micro-ltration
membrane removes 99.9999%* of bacteria and as well as more than
99.95% of cysts**, and the activated carbon reduces industrial pollutants,
pesticides and volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) of which the effects are
possibly linked to cancer risk***. The Long-life lter lasts up to 1000 litres
(approximately 6 months****) without the hassle of washing and
maintenance.
WP3864 only: The Soft water booster uses ion exchange (IEX) technology
to decrease water hardness, giving water with a superior purer taste***.
If regenerated regularly, the Soft water booster lasts up to 6 months.
On the top front of the water tank, the Pure protect alert display gives
clear feedback on the lifetime of the lter. Advanced electronics automatically
warn you when the lter is almost full and when replacement is required.

guard against secondary contamination. Silver sieves in the water spouts
provide extra safety at the last point before dispensing your ltered water.
