The Doulton W9123053 UltraCarb 10-inch Filter Candle features four stages of filtration in a single cleanable cartridge.

It reduces suspended solids, chlorine, lead and other trace contaminants, as well as improving taste.

Also known as Mountain Pure Water #MT661-RFC, the carbon core improves taste, while also reducing particulates and other chemical contaminants overall.

In addition to being NSF certified, the W9123053 water filter has been tested and approved by the World Health Organization--for excellence you can depend on.

Doulton W9123053 UltraCarb Ceramic Filter Candle Contaminant Reduction:

• Pathogenic bacteria: Cholera, Typhoid, Salmonella, Serratia, E. Coli, Fecal Coliform >99.99% removal

• Cysts: Cryptosporidium Parvum, Giardia Lamblia >99.99% removal

• Sediment: Down to 0.9 micron absolute; 0.5 - 0.8 micron with a filtration efficiency of >99.99%

• Organic Chemicals: Pesticides, herbicides and organic solvents removal

• Metals: Lead, Iron, Aluminum removal

• Taste & Color: Hydrogen Sulphide, Iron, etc. removal

• Lead Removal: Lead is seldom found naturally in domestic water supply but can result from the dissolution of lead pipes which may still be in use in old water systems. The zeolite metal ion reduction medium in the Ultracarb element effectively reduces the lead content in drinking water.

Reduces the following contaminants:

• 85% of Atrazine at 1.2 ppb presence

• 99.99% of Bacteria

• 97% of Chlorine Taste & Odor

• 50% of Chloroform at 150 ppb presence

• 99.99% of Cholera

• 99.99% of Cryptosporidium

• 99.99% of Cysts

• 99.99% of E. Coli

• 99.99% of Giardia

• Herbicides

• Insecticide

• 99.99% of Klebsiella Terrigena

• 85% of Lindane

• Particulates

• Phenols

• 95% of Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)

• Salmonella

• Sediment

• 99.99% of Shigella

• Total Trihalomethanes (TTHM)

• 50% of Tricresyl Phosphate (TCP) at 1.2 ppb presence

provides its customers, whatever their situation, with top quality, UK manufactured water filters that perform consistently every time and gives them clean, healthy, great-tasting water anytime, anywhere.

Brand

Doulton^® water filters have now been manufactured continuously in the UK for more than 185 years. In the 19th Century, the River Thames was London’s main water supply… and sewer. Henry Doulton discovered that filtering water through a porous ceramic could stop people becoming sick from cholera and other water-borne diseases. Queen Victoria was an early and long-standing Doulton^® customer!

Fairey Industrial Ceramics Limited (FICL) is the sole manufacturer of the world famous range of Doulton^® ceramic drinking water filters. All Doulton^® ceramic water filter products are manufactured in FICL’s factory based in North Staffordshire, UK, the traditional home of the ceramic industry in England.

Quality

In general, the smaller the pore size of a filter and the more complicated the path the water takes through the filter medium, the more effective it is at removing particles from water. A ceramic has a small and complex pore structure, making it an ideal filter medium.

FICL is able to accurately control the pore structure of Doulton® ceramic drinking water filters, ensuring excellent product consistency.

All stages of FICL’s drinking water filter production process adhere to the stringent BS EN ISO 9001 quality standards. FICL holds the coveted NSF® and WRAS certificates, demonstrating that our drinking water filters have passed the highest international testing standards.

Our high quality standards are why the Doulton® brand name is so well known and respected for use in home water filtration systems around the world. Customers can, as a result of our exacting standards, expect the same high quality from our filters every time they are used.

Performance

Millions of ceramic filter candles are produced annually, which sell to 140 countries worldwide. This global success is because Doulton® drinking water filters are so versatile – they will do a job on any water supply:

• Highly effective barrier to particles and pathogens a pore structure down to 0.2 microns to offer maximum protection

• Long Life / Long term value

  the filters may be cleaned, when used on turbid water, which allows re-use and gives 6-12 months life

• Natural

  the ceramic is made from 100% natural earths and uses coconut shell carbon

• Minerals maintained
  the filters do not remove those minerals from the water which are beneficial to health

• Self-sterilising
  FICL’s ceramics contain trace elements of silver to inhibit microbiological growth

• Multi-stage filtration in one cartridge

  other filter media can be put inside the ceramic filer candle. Activated carbon can be incorporate to remove chlorine, or an ion exchange resin to remove heavy metals such as lead

Price

Bottled water is expensive to buy, produces a lot of plastic waste, and the carbon footprint of transporting those bottles of water is enormous.

• Healthy water that doesn’t cost the Earth
  Installing a filter system in your home offers a much greener as well as cheaper alternative way of drinking good quality water
