K5 Drinking Water Station filters our water before it reaches the tap

(14/10/2008)

Water is a natural solvent and can absorb impurities on its way to the tap, such as lead, chlorine and bacteria. These absorbed impurities can have a detrimental effect on the quality of the water and its taste and odour.

We all know we should be drinking 2 litres of water a day, but what if you find bottled unethical and too expensive, but don’t like the taste of tap? Well the dilemma is over with the launch of the new K5 Drinking Water Station from Kinetico. This alternative sits neatly under the sink and filters our water before it reaches the tap providing the clearest, cleanest, freshest tasting water for as little as 4p per litre. So you get the both of worlds without compromise.

Kinetico’s K5 offers an innovative seven-stage reverse osmosis (RO) system which has the ability not just to reduce, but to eliminate these impurities from normal tap water.

The K5 offers consumers a choice of filters that can be selected to deliver the water each individual household needs. This includes the Mineral Plus, which reintroduces minerals, such as magnesium and calcium, back into the water before you use it – giving all the goodness with none of the nasties.

The benefits of K5 water are numerous; it’s colourless, odourless and cleaner tasting. You’ll notice the difference immediately – foods and drinks really will taste better, for example tea and coffee will have a cleaner, fresher taste with no scum or residues.

The K5 is a rectangular unit that is easily installed and fits neatly under the kitchen sink. It is efficient and economical to run as it does not need an electricity supply and conveniently operates on demand - providing you with the cleanest, clearest water, 24 hours a day, 365 days per year.

The K5 starts from just under £640.00. Replacement filter cartridges cost from £28.20 and will need to be changed yearly in an average four- person household. This same household, drinking the recommended 2 litres each per day of bottled water, (assuming an average price per litre of 70p) would save enough switching to the K5 to pay for the system in just 4 months.
