  1. Particle Pre-filter: Removes rough particles from the raw water. This stage utilizes a polypropylene depth filter combined with active carbon and silver for high dirt absorption capacity.
  2. Main Filter Level (Active Carbon with Silver): Reduces organic substances and compounds that cause foreign odors or tastes (e.g., chlorine). The silver treatment enhances hygienic properties.
  3. Limescale Stabilization: Utilizes BWT polyphosphate to stabilize limescale-forming minerals, preventing scale buildup in the ice machine and ensuring consistent performance.

This comprehensive process ensures that the water supplied to your ice machine is optimized for clarity, taste, and appliance longevity.
