The Puretec X4 is a compact inline undersink drinking-water filtration system supplied with a dedicated Puretec DFU180 high-loop chrome faucet. Puretec lists the X4 for mains, rain and harsh water applications, with a silver-impregnated inline cartridge designed to reduce sediment, chlorine, unwanted tastes and odours.
The current X4-LF uses the Puretec IL150Q replacement cartridge and has a nominal filtration rating of 1 micron. Its slim inline design can be mounted horizontally or vertically, making it useful where cupboard space is limited.
Installed Today offers the Puretec X4 as a supply-only water filtration system, with supplied-and-installed options available across eligible Brisbane and Gold Coast service areas.
The X4 diverts water from the cold-water supply through its inline filtration cartridge before delivering the treated water through the included dedicated drinking-water faucet.
The system is designed to improve drinking-water clarity, taste and odour by reducing sediment and other unwanted substances while retaining naturally occurring essential minerals and fluoride.
The slim inline cartridge takes up less room than larger multi-housing systems and can be mounted horizontally or vertically.
Puretec's current product information lists the X4 for mains, rain and harsh water applications where its filtration capability matches the water-treatment requirements.
Suitable for kitchens wanting a separate filtered drinking-water faucet for filling glasses, bottles, kettles and cooking containers.
The X4 has a nominal 1 micron system filtration rating and is designed to reduce sediment and suspended matter from the water supply.
Puretec specifies the X4 for reducing chlorine, unpleasant tastes and odours to improve the drinking-water experience.
The slim cartridge and flexible mounting arrangement provide an undersink filtration option without requiring a large twin-filter housing assembly.
*Puretec specifies 1 year parts and labour plus a further 9 years parts only. Consumable filter cartridges are excluded.
You want a compact dedicated drinking-water filter that reduces sediment, chlorine, taste and odour without requiring a large undersink filter assembly.
You require whole-house filtration, reverse osmosis, ultraviolet disinfection or contaminant reduction beyond the published capability of the X4.
Confirm your water source, water quality, pressure, available undersink space and suitable position for the dedicated drinking-water faucet.
Puretec's current X4 product page lists the system as suitable for mains, rain and harsh water. Puretec's X4 technical specification sheet also describes the system for mains, rain, harsh and rural water supplies.
Water from untreated sources can have very different microbiological and chemical treatment requirements. Puretec's operating guide cautions against using the system with microbiologically unsafe water or water of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after filtration.
Where rainwater, bore water or another untreated source is involved, the complete water-treatment requirements should be confirmed rather than relying on the X4 cartridge alone for disinfection.
Water is diverted from the supply through the inline IL150Q cartridge and then delivered to the dedicated Puretec DFU180 drinking-water faucet.
The X4 connects to the water supply through ¼-inch quick-connect tubing and the supplied plumbing components.
Water passes through the silver-impregnated IL150Q cartridge, with the X4 system specified at a nominal filtration rating of 1 micron.
The treated water is delivered through the included DFU180 high-loop faucet independently from the normal kitchen mixer.
Puretec describes the X4 cartridge as silver impregnated to inhibit bacterial growth within the cartridge and help extend filter life.
The X4 system is specified by Puretec with a nominal filtration rating of 1 micron.
The included DFU180 is a dedicated chrome drinking-water faucet with a high-loop design and quarter-turn spindle lever.
The inline cartridge can be mounted vertically or horizontally to help suit different undersink cupboard layouts.
Puretec includes a multifunction valve for pressure reduction as part of the X4 installation kit.
Puretec states that the X4 does not remove essential minerals or fluoride from the water.
