6.2 Filtration Process

The system utilizes an advanced 6-layer filtration process:

1. PP Sediment Filter: Removes sediment, rust, and other large particles.
2. Anti-Scale Filter: Reduces scale buildup to protect the RO membrane.
3. CTO (Carbon Block) Filter: Removes chlorine, odors, and organic chemicals.
4. 0.0001-micron RO Membrane: Eliminates over 99% of 1,000+ contaminants including PFAS (PFOA and PFOS), vinyl chloride, chlorine, fluoride, lead, arsenic, asbestos, calcium, sodium, and others.
5. Taste-Polishing CTO Filter: Further improves water taste and odor.
6. Built-in UV Light: Provides an additional layer of purification, lasting up to 8,000 working hours, ensuring safe and clean water.
