It uses a single replaceable cartridge with seven stages of filtration, including one-micron filter pads, coconut shell granular activated carbon, ion exchange resin, Eagle Redox Alloys 9500 and 6500 media, and ionizer media. The ionizer media contains magnesium and calcium to help increase oxygenation and drive pH higher. A diverter valve lets users switch between filtered and unfiltered water at the faucet. With a listed 0.3–0.5 GPM flow rate, this countertop alkaline water filter is suitable for drinking water use in homes, apartments, offices, and spaces where countertop faucet-connected filtration is preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSingle-Cartridge Alkaline SMART Filtration\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Crystal Quest system combines alkalizing support and SMART filtration media in one countertop cartridge.
