Traditional 10" Pre-Filter Clear Housing

(Housing Only)

Select a Filter Cartridge tailored to your water filtration requirements.


Removing some materials from your water that are not discarded through the Ionization process or removed by the Biostone Filter, may require installation of a Pre-Filter. Before installing any Pre-Filter, it is recommended that you acquire a water condition report from your local authority or a testing specialist. Not everyone needs a pre-filter, however, every household's water is different and people react differently to water contents.

Some common conditions for which people use pre-filters:

  • Soften Hard Water – high content of calcium and/or magnesium can cause scaling or buildup in pipes. Water Ionizers need to be protected from scale buildup
  • Arsenic Removal – removes virtually all arsenic from water
  • Remove Fluoride - while the Biostone Filter removes approximately 60% of Fluoride and Chlorine, some people want virtually all these elements removed
  • Iron - Iron, at a high level, can inhibit water from becoming alkaline. Additionally, while considered safe, Iron bacteria can build up in filters and cause odors
When ordering a canister there are three important things to order with it
  1. Counter Top Model or Under Counter Model - The Counter Top Model has an additional piece to allow the canister to sit flat.
  2. Hose adapters for the canister. Adapters are available for hose classified as "Low Pressure" (5/16" inner diameter hose) adapters or "High Pressure" (1/8" inner diameter hose) adapters.
  3. The canister DOES NOT come with a filter cartridge, so please select the one that will suit your situation

High Pressure Fittings are for 1/4" tubing (Typically Used with - Athena, Orion, Aquarius, Melody, and Venus)

Low Pressure Fittings are for 5/16" tubing (Typically Used with - Technos, Masterpiece, Microlite, Neptune, Alkablue and IonFarms)



PLEASE NOTE: - The cartridges do need to be changed periodically or they will loose there effectiveness. When installing a new cartridge, we recommend you write down the type of cartridge you are using and the date it was installed.
