The Ceramic Pre-Filter plays a crucial role in the filtration process of your Alps Water Filter; constructed from Diatomaceous Earth, it fulfills the initial stage of filtration.
It effectively eliminates rust, sediment, organic materials, and other potentially harmful microorganisms, including bacteria, cysts, and parasites.
Microplastics typically measure around ~2.5 microns in size, although they can vary in size.
The Ceramic Pre-Filter is capable of removing particles as small as 0.2 microns, which means it can eliminate particles that are 10 times smaller than microplastics.
It is necessary to replace the filter every 6 to 9 months, provided that it is properly cared for and maintained.
Please be aware that depending on the batch, the following care video featuring Peter may be applicable for new ceramic domes, but only if the water takes longer than 2 hours to pass through the filter.
