Doulton 10" Ultracarb SI Drinking Water Ceramic Candle Filter 1 Pack

For me a great filter as I have this product at home, never had a filter at previous properties but my sister who doesn’t like to drink tap water happily drinks water from our filter.

Excellent product, would recommend

Here are some numbers for people that do not want to rely purely on subjective opinions. We live in Ireland (Midlands) and our mains water is very hard (thick scum on tea, build up of limescale in kettles, replacing washing machine every few years, that kind of hard). We have created 3-stage filtration system: mains water filter right after our water connection, single undercounter Doulton filter and major brand water jug filter. Water, that we drink and use for cooking, goes through all three stages. I bought water hardness tester to quantify system performance. Mains water has 370ppm, water hardness after main filter drops to 290ppm, after Doulton filter hardness is down to 265ppm and after jug filter ends up at 225ppm. Still hard, but softened enough to stop tea scum and constant kettle limescale. If your water is very hard, don't expect miracles, but it works, you just may need other filters to decrease hardness further. What I like about them, is that Doulton filters last 6 months, which is much longer than jug filters, and that if your water pressure reduces, you can clean and reinstall them (up to mentioned 6 months for best results, but possibly even longer). Considering their lifespan, it's a decent value for money. Also, they stop many other impurities from getting into your drinking water, and that is a fact, not an opinion. I am including photo of new filter next to 6 months old one. I am using them for years and would recommend them

Good works well.

Original product

Having spent a lot of money on a filter tap I was looking forward to drinking tea without a layer of scum on it, but the although the water definitely tastes better the first (standard) filter made little difference to scum/limescale so I contacted Doulton/Fairey and they advised that in very hard water areas such as Essex where I live their filters have limited effect. They suggested trying this model instead. Sadly no noticeable difference in terms of limescale reduction, but still better than a jug filter.

The filter is excellent, and the delivery was fast

Good product, have been using these for years.

Parfait.

Lo compré para sustituir uno de mi apartamento con mas de 7 años, iba todavía bien, pero pensé que mejor lo cambiaba ya por si acaso y por supuesto ahora este todavía va mejor y filtra el agua mas deprisa, estoy pensando en comprar uno con el mecanismo para acoplarlo a otro grifo diferente en mi vivienda habitual pues su filtrado es muy profundo y no deja rastro de cloro ni impureza alguna en el agua.

Perfekt

Tutto perfetto.

Bon produit ariver en très bon état
