Riva Trinkwasserfilter rivaALVA KALK – Metallgehäuse mit Filterkartusche und Schlauchanschluss-Set

Drinking Water Filter rivaALVA KALK – Metal Housing with Filter Cartridge and Hose Connection Set

Description: Hard, calcium-rich water is a well-known problem in most Swiss municipalities. This is especially true in the canton of Jura, Basel-Land, and the Mittelland, where hard to very hard water can be expected. Hard water has numerous disadvantages: in addition to scaling of faucets and household appliances, it increases the consumption of detergents and cleaning agents. Furthermore, the taste of beverages and food is negatively affected.

After extensive development by the engineers at Riva Water Filter Technology, we are finally able to offer a chemical-free filtration solution. The operating principle of our calcium filter rivaALVA KALK is based on the natural principle of seed crystal formation. As soon as the drinking water comes into contact with our granulate, the calcium contained within it begins to grow in the form of tiny crystals on the granulate. These calcium crystals are washed away from the surface of the granulate and flushed out through the plumbing system, preventing them from settling on other surfaces. This significantly reduces calcium deposits on surfaces and in household appliances.

Flow Rate: approx. 9-11 liters per minute at 3 bar
Dimensions: 120 x 67 mm
Service Life: The filter cartridge must be replaced after 6 months (according to DIN 1988). The recommended maximum throughput is 8000 liters. Depending on the water quality, particularly if there is a noticeable reduction in water flow, a filter cartridge change may also be necessary at shorter intervals.

Includes Filter Reminder App: To make our filters more effective, we have integrated a reminder for changing water filters. You can set up each filter, specify the installation date, and determine the replacement interval. The app will then remind you when it's time to change your water filters. The app is free.
