The ULTRA system is built to give you water that feels closer to clean, natural sources. It uses 4 different types of advanced activated carbons (unparalleled in the industry) for a very wide chemical removal range, plus 3 natural mineral-based media for heavy metals and radioisotopes.
It features our FluorSorb-MAX™ technology for superior fluoride removal, 0.5 micron filtration, natural mineral/alkalinity preservation and oxidation reduction technologies.
We scientifically selected media that preserves the naturally occurring beneficial minerals in your water. Acidic contaminants come out, natural calcium neutralizes acids and alkalinity stays steady if sufficiently high (or gets a gentle lift if low)—without artificial ionization.
A built-in flow regulator keeps water from rushing through too fast. That contact time is what lets the media work more thoroughly. Most systems skip this.
The result: revitalized water that’s filtered, still has its minerals, stays naturally alkaline, and is less oxidizing (lower ORP). Oxidation is what turns a cut apple brown or turns iron to rust—lower ORP means gentler water.
DESCRIPTION OF FILTRATION PHASES
PHASE 1: (Chemicals & Sediment)
Water enters the first transparent purple chamber with our SuperBlock™—a proprietary 0.5-micron carbon block made from two catalytic-grade activated carbons plus KDF-F® media. This combination gives a much wider chemical removal range than typical blocks. It can be up to 15× more effective on chloramine than regular activated carbon. The tight 0.5-micron density also blocks microplastics and fine sediment—about 500× smaller than a grain of beach sand. KDF-F® helps protect the carbon from fouling early.
PHASE 2: (Fluoride)
Next, water enters the second chamber for fluoride reduction through our proprietary FluorSorb-MAX™ cartridge. It uses an alumina-free, natural calcium-carbon-phosphate formulation that removes fluoride to non-detectable levels in independent testing. Developed over 6+ years to significantly outperform activated alumina on removal %, consistency, and longevity without stripping beneficial minerals (unlike reverse osmosis or distillation).
No fluoride in your water? You still get the benefit of this phase. This unique media also targets various metals and radionuclides and can help raise pH. It works in synergy with the other cartridges for wider coverage.
PHASE 3: (Radioisotopes & Heavy Metals)
In the final chamber the water meets our AntiRad-Plus™ cartridge with KDF55®, activated zeolite, and a third type of catalytic carbon. The zeolite is the same class of mineral used to capture radioisotopes in nuclear cleanup. This phase reduces heavy metals, radioisotopes, and additional chemicals. KDF55® also lowers ORP through an electrochemical process, so the water is less oxidizing.
CONNECTION & COMPONENTS
Sits on your countertop next to the sink (left or right side). No under-sink plumbing needed.
Plumbing:
Connects to your existing kitchen faucet with the included diverter valve (in place of your current aerator — check compatibility). Flip the small lever to send cold water through the filter when you want it; flip it back to use the faucet normally for dishes.
Components:
We don’t cut corners. All plastics are BPA- and phthalate-free, precision-machined materials made for drinking water. Connections use double o-ring seals for better leak resistance, and tubing is quick-connect for faster, simpler setup. The bracket is stainless steel with a glossy white finish that won’t rust or crack the way cheaper steel or plastic brackets do.
