Filtration Performance

Coldstream FTO+: Advanced Filtration for Pure and Safe Water

The Coldstream FTO+ filters incorporate dual-filtration technology to deliver exceptional water quality. Their design consists of:

Outer ceramic shell: Blocks microbiological contaminants, microplastics, PFAS (forever chemicals), and suspended particles.

Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) core: Reduces a wide range of chemical substances, enhancing the taste and purity of the water.

What Contaminants Are Removed?

  • Bacteria and viruses: Including Klebsiella terrigena, rotavirus, and other harmful pathogens.
  • Heavy metals: Lead, mercury, aluminum, arsenic, copper, nickel, zinc, silver, chromium, and more.
  • Fluoride: Effectively reduces fluoride without requiring additional filters.
  • Bad taste and odors: Chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
  • Pesticides and herbicides: Including glyphosate, atrazine, and other agricultural chemical residues.
  • Microplastics and chemicals: Chloroform, chloramine, sulfate, and many more contaminants.

Filter Replacement:

The Coldstream FTO+ filters are designed to provide optimal filtration for an extended period.

  • Recommended lifespan: 1,500 liters per filter.
  • Total capacity with 2 filters: 3,000 liters, or about 1 year of use based on 8L/day.

⏳ When should you replace your filters?

The replacement frequency depends on your daily water usage and the quality of your water source. Each filter will produce safe water for up to 1,500 liters, so make your calculations accordingly.  Even after exceeding their recommended lifespan, filters will continue to remove contaminants, but their effectiveness will decline.

💡 Our advice: To ensure consistently pure and great-tasting water, always keep an extra set of replacement filters on hand.

Choosing the Right Size

Choosing the right capacity for your AQUA Coldstream system is essential to ensure a constant supply of pure, filtered water. The gravity filtration process delivers exceptional quality but takes time. To avoid long waits, it's important to select a model suited to your daily consumption. Here are some key considerations to help you make the best choice for both present and future needs.

Which Capacity is Best for Your Needs?

Your water consumption varies depending on the number of users and peak usage times. It is recommended to choose a system that meets your needs during peak hours:

  • At home: Ensure enough water is available for meals and cooking.
  • At the office, gym, or yoga studio: Avoid shortages during breaks when multiple people want to hydrate at the same time.
  • During gatherings or events: A larger model allows you to host guests comfortably without running out of water.

Plan for Future Needs

An AQUA Coldstream system is a long-term investment. The stainless steel canisters are built to last a lifetime, provided they are well-maintained. Before purchasing, consider the following questions:

✔️ Will your family grow in the coming years?
✔️ Could your water consumption increase over time?
✔️ Would you prefer a larger capacity for greater convenience?

By anticipating these factors, you can make a smart decision and avoid needing to upgrade your system too soon.

6L, 9L, or 12L: Which Option is Best?

The price difference between an AQUA Coldstream 6L, 9L, and 12L is minimal compared to the product's lifespan. Consider these points when deciding:

  • The 6L model is ideal for one or two people, but it is limited to 2 filters.
  • The 9L and 12L models can accommodate up to 4 filters, providing a faster filtration rate.
  • If you are unsure between two sizes, choose the larger model to offer more flexibility in the future. This way, you will never run out of pure AQUA Coldstream water!

Installation & Maintenance

Set-up Instructions

  1. Clean the stainless steel components
    • Using a soft sponge, clean the two stainless steel canisters and the lid with soap and water.
    • Important: Never use soap, vinegar, or chemicals to clean the filters.
  2. Install the knob
    • Thread the screw through the metal washer and then through the hole in the lid from the underside.
    • Screw the knob onto the screw and hand-tighten.
  3. Attach the spigot
    • Slide a metal washer and a silicone washer onto the stem of the spigot.
    • Insert the stainless steel spigot into the pre-drilled hole in the lower canister.
    • Slide the second silicone washer and the second metal washer onto the spigot stem inside the canister.
    • Secure the spigot tightly with the nut to ensure a water-tight seal.
  4. Install the filters
    • Remove the filters from their packaging.
    • Thread a black rubber washer onto the stem of each filter.
    • Insert the filter stem into the hole at the bottom of the upper chamber.
    • Attach the wingnut to the threaded stem and tighten to ensure a watertight seal.
    • Attention: Avoid over-tightening to prevent stripping the wingnut threads.
  5. Seal the extra holes
    • If you have more holes than filters, install the provided blocking plugs from the inside of the upper canister to seal the extra holes
  6. Assemble the system
    • Place the lower stainless steel chamber on a stable surface.
    • Position the upper chamber securely on top.
  7. Initial filtration and rinse
    • Fill the upper chamber with water and allow it to pass through the filters.
    • NOTE: The first batch of water will take longer to filter as the filters are dry.
    • Discard the first batch of filtered water as it may contain carbon dust.
  8. Rinse the filters
    • Refill the upper chamber.
    • If the filtered water is clear, the system is ready to use.
    • If the water is still cloudy, or if the water has a strong 'new filter' taste, repeat the rinsing process as needed.
  9. Ready to use
    • Your Aqua Coldstream gravity water purifier is now ready for use. Enjoy safe, pure, great-tasting water.

Care & Maintenance

  1. Clean the lower canister (once a month)
    • Use a soft sponge and mild dish soap, or a 50-50 mixture of clean water and white vinegar.
    • Do not use dishwasher detergent.
  2. Clean the whole system (every 3 months)
    • Remove the spigot and soak it in a 50-50 mixture of clean water and white vinegar for 5-10 minutes.
    • Rinse it thoroughly under running water.
    • Wash both chambers with a soft sponge using dish soap or a 50-50 mixture of white vinegar and water.
    • Reinstall the spigot and the filters.

Important Warnings

  • Do not overfill the upper chamber if the lower chamber is already partially filled.
  • Do not place the system in direct sunlight or near a heat source.
  • Do not allow wet Coldstream FTO+ filters to freeze.
  • Do not wash the filters with soap or detergent.
  • Do not place the filters in a dishwasher or microwave.
  • Do not pour boiling water into the system.
