How it works
Activated Alumina is manufactured from aluminium hydroxide by dehydroxylating it in a way that produces a highly porous material; this material can have a surface area significantly over 200 square metres/gram. The compound is used as a filter of fluoride, arsenic and selenium in drinking water.
One of the effects of using this filter medium is that it may leach some aluminium in the water even though it removes the fluoride.
So when using Activated Alumina you should always get at least a two stage water filter. The second stage will contain a form of activated carbon that can take care of any eluted aluminium.
Provided you maintain them with correct replacement intervals, your
Ultrastream will filter any possible aluminium eluted from the fluoride filter.
