Different types of water filters explained

Home water filtration systems are an essential part of every household. There are a variety of different types of household water filters to suit water purifiers and water tank filters.

• Activated carbon filters- these are responsible for removing large particles such as sediment and silt from the water.
• Reverse osmosis- a popular filter that has the ability to remove a good deal of dangerous contaminants and making sure the water comes out clear and odour free.
• Alkaline ionizers- using a process called electrolysis. Water is passed over electrically charged plates and is separated into acidic and alkaline streams. Water comes out softer and better for your skin, making this suitable for shower filters.
• UV filters- UV rays are used to treat water, which can destroy bacteria that may harm health.
