Aquano 10" Standard Countertop Water Filter with 1 Micron Carbon Block Cartridge

The Aquano CTWF10S is a simple countertop drinking-water filter for homes where permanent under-bench installation is not practical.

It sits directly on the benchtop and connects to a suitable kitchen tap, making it a practical option for rental homes or anyone wanting a portable filtration setup.

The system comes ready to use with the CB1001STD premium 1 micron carbon block cartridge with silver, providing fine particulate filtration while improving the taste of drinking water.

Why Choose It?

• Simple countertop design
• No under-bench filter housing required
• Suitable for rental homes and portable filtration

• 10" Standard replaceable cartridge format
• Premium carbon block cartridge included

How It Works

Tap water is diverted through the countertop housing and passes through the included carbon block cartridge before being dispensed as filtered drinking water.

The 1 micron carbon block provides fine filtration while the carbon media helps improve drinking-water taste.

The silver treatment provides antibacterial protection within the cartridge media. This should not be confused with dedicated microbiological disinfection of the water.

• Homes needing a simple drinking-water filter
• Portable countertop filtration
• Customers wanting a replaceable standard-size cartridge

Key Specifications

Included Filter Cartridge

The supplied CB1001STD is a 10" Standard 1 micron carbon block cartridge.

Its carbon block construction combines fine particulate filtration with carbon treatment for better-tasting drinking water. The antibacterial treatment is designed to help control microbial growth within the filter media rather than disinfect the incoming water.

Installation

The unit sits on the kitchen countertop and connects to the tap using the supplied tap connection.

This avoids the need to mount a housing beneath the sink, making it useful where permanent plumbing changes are not desirable.

Tap designs vary, so confirm that the existing kitchen tap is compatible with the supplied connection before installation.

Maintenance

The cartridge can be changed using the supplied housing spanner.

Replace the cartridge when required based on water quality, use and any noticeable reduction in flow or filtration performance.

Use CB1001STD as the direct replacement cartridge.
