Principios de funcionamiento

The Boston Tech HK102 filter cartridge utilizes a four-step filtration technology to purify water and preserve beneficial minerals:

• Pre-filtering (Upper Membrane): Removes suspended particles from the water.
• Filtro de carbón activo: Eliminates unpleasant tastes, polluting residues, lead, and chlorine.
• Ion Exchange Filtering: Reduces carbonate hardness, preventing scale formation, and removes heavy metals such as lead, copper, and mercury.
• Micronet Technology: Ensures a natural flavor without chlorine and heavy metals, while purifying and preserving health-beneficial substances like calcium and magnesium.

This comprehensive process delivers healthier and cleaner water with a natural taste.
