The 3 types of water filtration available

At Pure H2O, several water filtration methods are available to provide you with superior-quality water. Whether it’s a carbon filter, an ultrafiltration system, or reverse osmosis, we have selected some of the highest-quality products on the market to serve you!

Water filtration with a carbon filter

Filtration quality: 2/5

Using a process in which water passes through a filter to remove tastes and odours, a carbon filter captures the larger particles found in your water.

Contaminants removed by this type of filtration:

  • Certain chemicals
  • Sand
  • Chlorine
  • Dust

Water filtration through ultrafiltration

Filtration quality: 3/5

Using a process in which water passes through two different filters and a membrane, ultrafiltration captures not only larger particles but also asbestos particles and bacteria that may be present in your water supply.

Contaminants removed by this type of filtration:

  • Certain chemicals
  • Sand
  • Chlorine
  • Dust
  • Asbestos
  • Bacteria

Water filtration through reverse osmosis

Filtration quality: 5/5

Using a process developed by NASA, drinking water passes through three different filters and a semi-permeable membrane, allowing only H2O molecules to pass through.

Contaminants removed by this type of filtration:

  • Chemicals
  • Chlorine
  • Magnesium
  • Calcium
  • Metal ions
  • Sand
  • Dust
  • Bacteria
  • Viruses
  • PPCPs (pharmaceuticals and personal care products)
