More specifically from the remains of silicon shells left by algae that settled to the bottom of the Earth&#8217;s waters years ago.  These deposits were discovered when the Earth&#8217;s bodies of water dried up.  The discovery of this \u201cDiaomaceous Earth\u201d had sparked new ideas for technological uses, especially in water filtration.  The ceramic filter is very beneficial because it filters out a variety of contaminants that may be present in the water while the essential minerals remain.  About 99.88% of contaminants known to cause water-born diseases are filtered out by ceramic water filters.<br \/>\nDepth filtration is the unique way that contaminants are filtered from ceramic unit.  With this advanced level of filtration comes a quality is extremely cleanly and virtually contaminant-free.  Doulton filters contain within their ceramic shells about 80,000,000 pores in which to trap bacteria and other harmful contaminants that could be present in household drinking water. Pure silver incorporated throughout the ceramic filter prevents bacteria from growing.  Silver plays an important role in the maintaining of cleanliness within the filter.  When silver comes into contact with water, the silver gives off ions.  The bacteria cells takes in the ions and it then become neutral.<br \/>\nSome of the ceramic filters that we have available are actually reusable.  To clean these filters for reuse, simply brush off the outer layer of contaminants under running water with a small brush.  Some filters may be reused up to 60 times before its filtration capabilities have been exhausted.  When the filter has been used down to a diameter of 1.75&#8243;, that is a good indication that it should be replaced.  These ceramic filters should not be cleaned with any type of chemical agents in order to ensure the cleanliest of filtration.<br \/>\nWe carry three different brands of ceramic filters: Pentek, Franke and Doulton.  The Pentek ceramic filter is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/Pentek-CRE-1-Ceramic-Filter.asp\">CRE-1<\/a>, which has a 1 micron rating and is reusable.  The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/Franke-Triflow-FXR02-Filter.asp\">FRX-02<\/a> is the Franke brand of ceramic filter that we carry, which has a 0.2 micron rating but is not reusable.  Some of the Doulton Ceramic filter that are reusable are listed here: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/Doulton-DS-1000-Ceramic-Filter-Candle.asp\">DS-1000<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/Doulton-Imperial-Sterasyl-Ceramic-Filter.asp\">Imperial OBE<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filtersfast.com\/Doulton-Sterasyl-OBE-Filter-Cartridge.asp\">Sterasyl OBE<\/a>.<br \/>\n<a style=\"text-decoration:none\" href=\"\/index.php?yt=maxalt-online-bestellen-schweiz\">.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ceramic materials are made from the Earth.
