AQVA iron-manganese 20BB inch / XL-size

Iron filter cartridge made in Finland, suitable for AQVA XL-size filter housing

The filter effectively reduces iron and manganese from household water. Ideal for clarifying well water, suitable for 1–4 water points.

Benefits:

• Improves the quality of household water
• Easy maintenance
• No drainage required

Filters from water:

• Iron, 50–95%**
• Manganese, 30–70%**
• Odors and tastes
• Suspended solids down to 5 µm

The overall properties of the water, such as pH, salt content, and humus, may affect performance.

Filter replacement:

• AQFEI-XL, replace, for example, every 80,000 liters when raw water iron content is approximately 2 mg/l Fe and humus has been removed from the water.*
• Filter lifespan depends on raw water quality.
• Replace the filter at the latest when the filtered water starts to turn yellowish, indicating the filter’s capacity is exhausted.
• Replace the filter at least once a year.
• If you notice changes in the quality of the filtered water, we recommend conducting a follow-up water analysis of the raw water.
