Watts single-stage total PFAS reduction filtration system
Watts’ new single-stage total PFAS reduction filtration system is designed for easy connection to most existing kitchen and bathroom faucets. Unlike many filters that target only PFOA and PFOS, this advanced system is certified to reduce 99.5% of total PFAS — a broader category of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances. In addition to PFAS, the system also reduces lead, cysts, asbestos, microplastics, chlorine taste and odors, and sediment, offering comprehensive protection in a compact, easy-to-install design. The system addresses this need with a high-flow rate of 2.5 gpm and a high-capacity 0.5-micron carbon block filter rated for 3,200 gallons. The cartridge is designed for simple replacement every six months, and the system’s user-friendly design eliminates the need for a separate faucet during installation. 978-688-1811; www.watts.com
