Gourde filtrante Öko

• The Öko water bottle is made of special polypropylene (PP5), a food-grade material identical to that used for food storage containers.
• Tritan cap.

3 Steps to Understanding the ÖKO Filter

1. Filter Composition: The filter membrane is composed of a natural mineral fiber—pseudoboehmite (AlOHH)—antibacterial ions, and microscopically dispersed activated carbon. It is 8 mm thick and has more than 400 pores.
2. Mechanical filtration: The filter’s pores are calibrated to 1.25 microns. They mechanically block particles equal to or larger than this size, such as sediments and certain impurities. This first level of filtration is particularly effective at trapping silt and suspended particles.
3. Submicron filtration by electroadsorption: Upon contact with water, the natural mineral fiber emits a positive charge field around the hollow volume of the pores. The water is then stripped of submicron contaminants, which are attracted like a magnet to the membrane’s retention surface. This is the principle of electroadsorption.

Usage Tips:

• An Öko filter can filter approximately 378 liters of water when used with clear, potable tap water. This corresponds to 6 months of use based on an average of 2 liters per day. The water filter should be replaced based on your personal usage. The more sediment in the water, the shorter the filter’s lifespan will be.
• When should you replace the filter? When the taste or smell of tap water returns, it means the filter is nearing the end of its capacity. Öko has developed a free app, Öko Counter, available on the Apple Store or the Play Store, which helps you track your water consumption and plan when to replace the filter element.
• How do you replace it? Simply unscrew and screw it back on.
• Care: The bottle, pipette, and cap (without the filter) can be washed at room temperature with soap and/or water.

• The listed contaminants and pollutants are tested in independent French laboratories that are Cofrac-approved and accredited.
• NEVER clean the filter or allow it to come into contact with any substance other than water (if you need to filter muddy water, rinse the outside of the filter with water).
