Drinking Water Filters
Taste, odour, scale
Usage:
A water filter is often fitted with our boiling and chilled water products to provide high quality, great tasting drinking water. There are two general types of filter available.
Taste and odour carbon block filters help to improve the taste of drinking water by removing some of the chlorine present in UK mains water; these filters are ideal for cold/ chilled water supply.
Scale inhibiting filters are strongly recommended for use with boiling water products, particularly when installed in areas where scale is a known issue. This type of filter also offers chlorine reduction and helps to improve the taste.
