Newton Cryptosporidium Removal Water Filter System with Ceramic Fluoride and Heavy Metal Removal Candle, and Choice of Tap
The NEWTON Cryptosporidium system offers bacteria-rated multi-stage filtration, fluoride, and heavy metal reduction. The 0.2 - 0.5 micron ceramic candle also removes 99.99% of sediment and chlorine which significantly improves the taste & odour of your drinking water.
Our NEWTON filters retain essential minerals in the water that are beneficial to health.
This kit is designed to filter out cryptosporidium; a hard-shell bacteria that cannot be treated with UV light (like most bacteria can). Cryptosporidium can cause symptoms such as respiratory and gastrointestinal illness.
Your water board will usually notify you of a cryptosporidium outbreak and put out a "boil water" notice. This usually means you end up buying a lot of bottled water or have to boil your tap water before use. This can be time-consuming, expensive, and is oftentimes too late before the information is relayed to you, meaning you've probably already been infected!
If you are going to have a water filter in your home, a crypto kit is a great option to cover all possibilities.
Newton 10" Ceramic Candle BSP Filter Housing can accept all BSP threaded "Short Mount" water filter products from brands such as Newton and Doulton.
This kit comes with all the components included for easy DIY installation.
Disclaimer
Any water treatment solution recommended by Finerfilters to remove cryptosporidium is only guaranteed to remove 99.9% of cryptosporidium.
As with all filters, people should follow the manufacturer's instructions for filter use and replacement. Water treated with a point-of-use filter that meets the above criteria may not necessarily be free of organisms smaller than Cryptosporidium which could pose a health hazard for severely immunocompromised individuals.
Cryptosporidium can be passed from Human-to-Human and Animal-to-Human. Please follow local health officer guidelines to reduce your risk of non-water-borne infection from Cryptosporidium.
Finerfilters recommend that all severely immunocompromised persons (babies/elderly persons) take extra caution concerning their drinking water, individuals who wish to take extra measures to avoid waterborne Cryptosporidiosis can bring their drinking water to a full boil for one minute. Boiling water is the most effective way of killing Cryptosporidium.
