ADVANTAGES OF THE FILTER TECHNOLOGY Reduces odor- and taste-disturbing substances such as chlorine as well as organic contaminants Reduces particles >200 μm (sand, particles from the tap) INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT CALCIUM The mineral calcium occurs in different concentrations in water and is measured in °dH (degrees of hardness). It is not in itself visible but, depending on the degree of water hardness, forms deposits when heated. These deposits damage electrical household appliances like coffee machines, kettles and tea-makers. Not only do they lead to poorer heat transfer and increased energy consumption, but they make devices less efficient and shorten their service life. Limescale deposits also promote the growth of microorganisms, such as bacteria.
