Filter my tap water?

''Why should I use a water filter?

The water in Germany is good, isn't it?''

Did you know that the Drinking Water Ordinance only monitors around 100 substances, for which limit values are also set? However, over 2,000 substances and far more chemical compounds are found in our tap water. Just google "drug residues in drinking water." You'll be amazed.

Hand on heart:

Do you fancy this cocktail of drugs in your drinking water?

Drug residues, in particular, are repeatedly detected in drinking water. There are currently no limit values for these substances in the Drinking Water Ordinance.

Existing limit values for other substances are also often set arbitrarily, depending on what is economically and technically feasible. You know this from other areas!

More and more people therefore want to be on the safe side and are opting for a good water filter, e.g. from Carbonit, or a reverse osmosis system.

Don't let your water become clouded any more and remove everything from your water that doesn't belong there.

It's finally time for really good water.

Plus, you can make a real impact on sustainability here. Isn't it crazy that mineral water is transported thousands of kilometers around the world? Not to mention the plastic waste. And last but not least, you don't have to lug crates of water around.

How about fresh and pure water delivered to your door?

How can we help you?

Our water filter shop in Berlin can advise you on descaling and iron removal from tap water, including through microfiltration, nanofiltration, and ultrafiltration. A simple option for water filtration is a household water filter with filtration through an activated carbon block filter. For example, the activated carbon filters from the German company Carbonit remove unwanted substances such as pesticides, drug residues, and heavy metals like lead. We also offer American filter systems such as those from Multipure.

Water limescale can be counteracted with a reverse osmosis system or an ion exchanger. Limescale can clog pipes and damage household appliances. It also negatively affects the taste. We offer very affordable yet high-quality descaling systems. An alternative limescale treatment with seed crystals can also be used. The water flows through a granulate that changes the structure of the limescale. This prevents it from sticking stubbornly and causing damage. We would be happy to find a customized solution for you.

Devices for water revitalization or vitalization, such as water swirlers and vital sticks You can also get it from us. The use of a water whirlpool is intended to break up the water clusters, thus revitalizing the water. Just like in nature, when water flows over stones, it can regenerate itself. The Aquawhirler or Whirl Egg has a built-in gemstone chamber that you can fill with gemstones. Ionization devices, on the other hand, can produce basic, alkaline, antioxidant water. This is water that is brought to a higher, or basic, pH value using an electrolysis process.

This process has been in use in Korea and Japan since the 1980s. Studies there demonstrate the positive effects of the water. An upstream water filter ensures the necessary water purity. Carbonit's most popular water filters are the SanUNO and VARIO Classic countertop filters. We also offer suitable cartridges in almost all sizes for activated carbon water filters.

We also offer solutions for aquarists, e.g., for high nitrate levels in aquarium water.Water filters for private households:

For private households, a Carbonit activated carbon filter or an osmosis system is a good option. Drinking water filters can remove pharmaceutical residues, limescale, iron, lead, and other heavy metals, pesticides, asbestos, hormone-like substances, and, of course, limescale from the water. Inexpensive water filters like the Carbonit Sanuno or Vario are also very easy to connect. A good reverse osmosis system or a steam distiller can also be a solution.
Give us a call, we’ll be happy to advise you.

Domestic water filter or water filter for wells, iron removal:

If you're looking to purchase a water filter for your entire house, a 20-inch water filter is a good choice. The flow rate is high enough for the entire water supply. Either an activated carbon block filter, an activated carbon granulate filter, or a deferrization filter can be used as a filter insert. These are also often used as well filters with a suitable housing. Well water is often brown or brownish in color and has an unpleasant odor. This is caused by a high iron content. With a deferrization cartridge in a 20-inch water filter housing, iron and manganese can be easily removed. This is because well water is often contaminated with both iron and manganese.

Filter cartridges, cartridges, replacement cartridges:

The NFP Premium filter block from Carbonit has a filter mesh of 0.45µm. It is used in water filters such as SanUNO and VARIO Classic. High-quality activated carbon cartridges such as the NFP Clario or the IFP Puro with a filter mesh of 0.15µm can even remove bacteria and many viruses from the water. It is important to change the filter every 6 months. As the flow rate decreases, it becomes apparent that filtered substances in the water are slowly clogging the filter.

Whether it's a water swirler or activated carbon block, a reverse osmosis system or a well filter, you'll find what you're looking for with us. New to the market is the NFP Premium EM-X5 (EM = Effective Microorganisms). With baked-in "Effective Microorganisms" (EM), a remarkable improvement in taste can be achieved. The water revitalization is most clearly noticeable here. EM ceramics are believed to influence the cluster structure of the water and revitalize it. In aquarist forums, you can read that the use of water filtered with EM ceramics allows plants to thrive better, algae growth is curbed, aquarium fish diseases become less common, and the fish are generally more agile.

The The filtration for decalcification and water revitalization that we offer is completely chemical-free. The high effectiveness of microfiltration, ultrafiltration, and nanofiltration is confirmed by reports from various institutes and universities. The individual components of our filter systems, which use the reverse osmosis principle, are often NSF and/or FDA approved. TÜV has tested the NFP Premium water filter cartridge from Carbonit, which is used in the SanUNO and VARIO Classic. TÜV confirms that the NFP Premium effectively reduces heavy metals such as lead and copper. Other reports, such as the one from Bielefeld University, confirm the bacterial retention of the NFP Premium filter cartridge. As you can see, water treatment is a comprehensive topic that requires personal advice. Contact the specialist water filter store in Berlin.

Water filter for side-by-side refrigerators

So-called side-by-side refrigerators are becoming increasingly popular in Germany, too. Whether from Samsung, Bosch, Panasonic, or Liebherr, almost every refrigerator manufacturer now offers side-by-side refrigerators. These feature an integrated ice cube tray and a water dispenser. The built-in water filter protects the refrigerator from contamination from substances in the water. Changing the filter every six months can be quite expensive if you order the refrigerator filter regularly from the manufacturer.

Here we offer affordable original filters, but also even more affordable compatible filters that, in terms of quality and performance, can compare favorably with the original refrigerator water filter.

Water filters for coffee machines and espresso machines

Fully automatic coffee machines from Jura, Delonghi, Krups, Melitta, and other manufacturers, like modern portafilter machines, require regular filter changes. We offer alternatives with excellent value for money.
