How do our filters work?
Ceramic water filters are one of the oldest and most efficient methods of water filtration. The key to their effectiveness lies in their porous structure, which acts as a barrier between impurities and the water we consume.
Our benchtop water filters provide a convenient solution for filtering tap, tank and bore water, allowing you to enjoy clean drinking water at home.

Overview
The Doulton Super Sterasyl Ceramic Candle is a three stage cartridge combining the highly efficient filtration properties of ceramic, with the enhanced water treatment properties of activated carbon. It is a highly efficient ceramic microfilter insert for benchtop water filters that provides genuine sub micron filtration to your drinking water.
Stage 01.
Ceramic Filtration - the ceramic membrane provides genuine sub-micron filtration of fine particulate matter, bacteria, cysts and turbidity.
Stage 02.
Silver Ions - the incorporation of silver locked within the ceramic structure gives enhanced bacteriostatic and self-sterilising properties, preventing the growth of bacteria.
Stage 03.
Granular Activated Carbon - an inner core of activated carbon removes chlorine and organic compounds.
Filter Capacity
We recommend replacing this cartridge every 6 or 2000L (whichever comes first). The frequency of replacement is subject to your water's local quality and usage. The Doulton Super Sterasyl Filter Candle is imported from England and NSF Certified, making it the ideal filter candle option for filtering your drinking water especially if you are using tank, bore or spring water.
Filter Time:
1L per Hour
