Water filter in testing

Limescale-, bacterial- and osmosis-filters in comparison

Familie mit reinem Trinkwasser und Wasserfilter

Our tap water and mineral water are not always free of contamination. Current press reports prove this more and more often. According to current case law, tap water can no longer be called “best tested food” or “healthy”.

Water filter in the test: Thorough filtering removes germs, bacteria and viruses, environmental toxins, residues of medication and drugs, antibiotics, hormones, nitrates, pesticides, industrial chemicals, heavy metals, fluoride, chlorine, lime and much more. The osmosis technology even removes radioactive components.
