Water quality is a significant factor in producing the perfect cup of coffee. Whether you are a home user, a cafe owner, or a pro barista, your beverages can be ruined and have an utterly bitter taste or odor due to extremely hard water and limescale. Worst yet, the water can quickly build up scale in your machine, resulting in high repair costs and wasted performance. Mavea coffee water filter systems are devoted to alleviating these problems.
The Mavea Purity C coffee water filter system is designed to reduce the carbonate hardness in drinking water, removing harmful deposits such as lead, copper, and chlorine. Mavea filter systems accomplish this by the use of Active Carbon and Ion Exchange softening.
Note: Mavea softeners use Hydrogen Ion exchange NOT Sodium Ion exchange!
Mavea Purity C water filter systems come standard with:
- 1 Filter head
- 1 Carbonate Hardness Testkit
- 1 Filter Cartridge
The filter head on top of the system allows 100% of the water to be filtered through a 5-micron carbon filter, including bypass water. Your control of the water bypass ranges from 0% to 70% (water with low hardness). It has an easy to use locking system; a simple twist of the handles shuts off the water and enables you to remove and replace the filter cartridge.
Note: You need to change the filter cartridge a minimum of once a year.
This system comes equipped with the 2 john guest fittings necessary to hook up to 3/8" line.
Mavea Water Filters are NSF approved.
System tested and certified by NSF International agent NSF/ANSI standard 42 for the reduction of Chlorine and Odor.
