Coldstream FTO Plus Ceramic Water Filter

The Coldstream FTO Plus Ceramic Water Filter is specifically designed for use in stainless steel gravity fed systems and is compatible with both British Berkefeld and Berkey gravity housings. This filter is an excellent replacement for the Superstérasyl ATC filter, but is not suitable for mains pressurised systems (such as under the sink).

Product Description

The Coldstream FTO Plus consists of two core components:

• A unique, specially formulated external ceramic layer that provides protection against bacteria and particles, including PFAS and microplastics.
• An internal black, granular carbon substrate that removes fluoride, heavy metals, chemicals and other contaminants.

By installing an FTO Plus filter in your gravity system, you can count on safer, healthier, and better tasting drinking water. This filter is ideal for use in homes, gyms and spas, off-grid units, and is also used by international humanitarian organizations.
