Water filter cartridges need to be changed regularly to ensure your water treatment system functions reliably. Here you'll learn which replacement filters are compatible with your reverse osmosis system or water ionizer, what filter change intervals are recommended, and which filter media are particularly suitable for hard water. We also explain which minerals and trace elements remain in the water after filtration and ionization, and which certifications distinguish reputable filter products.
Which replacement filters and at what intervals should the filters of the Osminion Direct Flow 600 GPD reverse osmosis system be replaced? Hello Mr. Yasin Akgün, we will now have our system in operation for 6 months and are very satisfied! Think now is the time to change some filters. We have very calcareous water, 21 degrees of hardness. […]
Dirk S.: Are there water filter certificates which filter out “toxins”? and how is the pH increased so quickly (is something added to the water)? Hello Mr. S., your first question relates generally to filters and water ionizers. So: You are unlikely to find water filter certificates because no laboratory issues such a thing. What you find […]
Question about the mineral salts and trace elements contained in water after filtering and ionizing water Dear Mr. Akgün, I would like to buy a water ionizer from you, but I still have a few questions that are currently bothering me. It would be very nice if you could help me with this. Question 1 – How many minerals and […]

Brigitte W.: Which calcium do you recommend for the calcium shaft of my water ionizer?
Ute S: Is it better to have a Biostone bioceramic filter or is an activated carbon filter sufficient?
Multi-layer activated carbon filter change Water ionizer According to the Drinking Water Ordinance (TWVO), the filter(s) of every non-backwashable filter system must be replaced every 6 months. In almost all water filters that are integrated into the water ionizers, one of the activated carbon layers is coated with a very thin layer of silver. This layer prevents accumulation and contamination of the filter, which results in unpleasant odors [...]
Calcium sulphite in water filters – is that a concern? Good day Mr Akgün, good day Mr Asenbaum, could you please explain to me again how “bad” the calcium sulphite in the filters is, especially in light of the fact that we also use a lot of filtered water (without ionisation)? How relevant is the amount released in comparison to other foods containing sulphite […]
How can I dispose of the replaced filter in an environmentally friendly way after changing it? Disposing of filters in an environmentally friendly way? That's a difficult question if you take "environmentally friendly" seriously. Apparently, no official body has yet thoroughly examined the environmental impact of accumulated toxins in household filters. Presumably, this is because the total amount is relatively small and is incinerated during waste incineration […]
Wolfgang Q.: You used to recommend devices without pre-filters if the tap water was perfectly safe. Why are you trying to persuade me to use a filter now? Don't they also pose a risk of bacterial contamination? What should I consider when choosing a filter? You won't find completely contaminant-free drinking water anywhere in Central Europe. The limits set by drinking water regulations are often […]
