Dionela FAM1 under sink water filter

The FAM1 filtration system uses a two-stage system to effectively purify your water.  The first stage is a textile-based system which removes physical impurities including dirt, sand, rust, and metal pieces from pipes. The second stage uses bacteriostatically treated granular activated carbon to remove dissolved substances including chlorine, radon, heavy metals, organic substances, detergents, and pesticides. It also improves the taste, clarity, and color of water.

The FAM1 filter is suitable for water with nitrate levels up to 50mg/L. For higher nitrate levels, use the Dionela FDN2 filter. If you also want to reduce water hardness, use the Dionela FTK3.

To hook up the Dionela filter, a three-way valve is screwed onto the cold water line. A tube runs to the filtered water tap (to turn on and off the water), a second tube to the filter input, and a third tube from the filter output to the tap for pouring.

The Dionela can filter up to 38,000 liters and can last up to two years. To save money, the filter can be sent it for replacement. The internal textile and carbon filters are removed and replaced for a fraction of the cost of a new filter.
