ZEROWATER 12 CUP / 2.8L JUG
ZeroWater’s 12-cup water filter jug is the first in its class to benefit from a sealed lid and reservoir which allows filtered water to be poured while water which hasn’t yet been filtered remains in the reservoir. This adds a further 2 cups of capacity to the 10 cups of filtered water in the jug. It also features a one-handed, pull and pour button spout for easy pouring from the fridge or for filling bottles.
Unlike other leading water filter jugs, ZeroWater benefits from a patented, 5-stage Ion Exchange Filtration system which removes virtually all dissolved solids from your water. This provides great tasting water without the dissolved solids which may include Minerals, Salts, Metals, Chemicals and Runoff.
Moreover, it reduces 99% of all Fluoride and other inorganics, such as Nitrates, from your water.
Four additional stages of water filtration ensure larger particles and other contaminants are removed, ensuring the filter delivers a “000” reading on the included laboratory-grade water quality meter.
NOTE: In the factory, the filters are rinsed with purified water before being packaged in order to wash away the free carbon particles that are produced during the manufacturing process, as one of the filter layers is a carbon filter. It is normal to find some water when you open a new filter bag.
Dimensions (L x W x H): 29.5 x 15 x 28 cm

It is also possible to leave the jug on the kitchen top and to use the tap on the back to easily tap a glass of filtered water without having to lift the jug. *Increased levels of TDS (total dissolved solids) may affect taste and appearance of your water. ZeroWater Technology is the only water filtration system to remove 99.6% of TDS, equivalent to TDS in purified bottled water.
WHAT IS TDS?
Below are the performance results of ZeroWater’s 5-stage filter vs. a conventional filter for inorganic chemicals as listed under the EPA’s national primary drinking water regulations and contaminants listed under the EPA’s secondary drinking water standards. Results shown are based on a 150 litre filtration, double the rated usage to ensure consumer safety. The compounds tested are compounds listed by EPA as Primary and Secondary drinking water contaminants. The compounds tested are also listed by the NSF/ANSI Standard 53 and Standard 42 with established procedures for filter manufactures reduction claims. The procedure used in this comparison study were based on the NSF/ANSI standards 42 and 53, 2018 editions. The methods of analysis used in this study are EPA approved methods for drinking water.
Test results as performed by 3rd party laboratory is based on NSF/ANSI testing protocol of pour through devices for contaminants listed under the National Primary Drinking Water Standards.

Challenge Water Preparation:
The Metals challenge water was prepared by adding the appropriate amount of reagent standard to 20 Litres of water to get a concentration stated by the NSF/ANSI standard 42 or 53 for each metals, except for those metals that are not included in the NSF/ANSI standard, these metals were prepared 10 times the concentration of the EPA drinking water limit for that particular metal. The challenge water was passed through each filter, side by side, at a rate of 1 litre, 45 minutes load/45 minutes rest, and a filtered water sample was taken from each filter after 20 litres and tested for each metal using the EPA method 200.8 except for Iron that was tested using SM 3111-B. Adjusted the pH to 6.5 and 8.5 for all contaminants and the average of the two results was reported for each metal.
