•The compact construction of the filter allows for perfect optimization of tap water by reducing the
content of lead, chlorine and undesirable substances. The use of the Flow Comfort filtration system
improves the taste of drinking water. Water becomes clear and suitable for direct consumption. The
elements of the system are adjusted for installation in a cabinet under the sink. The efficiency and
durability of the filter depend on the local properties of water as well as on the condition of the water
installation.
•The filter bed has been developed based on a high-quality activated carbon of natural origin. It is
possible that carbon particles might appear in the water. They are completely safe for health. If
swallowed, they will cause no harm to health. The construction of the filtration system uses materials
approved for contact with food.
•The Flow Comfort system includes an independent or integrated electronic indicator which reminds
the user about the need to replace the filter.
Specification
•The tap water filtration system can be connected to the cold drinking water connection. Do not use for
water that has not been analyzed for suitability for consumption.
•A shut-off valve should be installed before the filter.
•If water pressure is higher than the nominal value, a pressure-reducing valve must be installed.
•Certain groups of people e.g., people with kidney diseases or weak immune system should consult the
possibility and method of use of the filter with a specialist and/or a physician.
•It is recommended that the filtration system should not be left unused for a longer period of time. If the
system is not used for 2-3 days, flush it with 0.52 gallon of water. If the system is going to be used for
the first time after a month or longer, flush it with 5.2 gallons of water.
•Filtered water remains suitable for consumption for 1-2 days (depending on the storage conditions).
•Due to the risk of secondary pollutants in the water installation, the system has been qualified as
category 2 acc. to EN 1717.
•The DC10 Lead filter cartridge and the head must be protected against overheating and excessive
exposure to sun.
•A factory-packed D10 Lead filter cartridge is fit for use for 5 years from the date of manufacture.
