Aimex 8-Stage Fluoride Reduction Replacement Filter Cartridge

Upgrade your daily hydration with the Aimex 8-Stage Fluoride Reduction Replacement Cartridge. Designed for gravity-fed benchtop purifiers, this multi-layered cartridge systematically targets municipal tap water contaminantsreducing fluoride, chlorine, heavy metals, and sediment while reintroducing essential trace minerals for optimal taste.

The Power of Stage 5 Activated Alumina (How Fluoride Reduction Works)

Many customers ask how fluoride is reduced in a gravity-fed water system.

This cartridge features a dedicated Stage 5 Activated Alumina (AA) layera highly porous, food-grade mineral matrix specifically processed for water treatment.

• Selective Adsorption: As water flows through Stage 5, the activated alumina acts like a magnet, drawing in and trapping fluoride ions through a physical process called adsorption.

• Targeted Reduction: Unlike standard carbon filters that pass fluoride straight through, activated alumina selectively targets fluoride molecules while letting water pass cleanly through the cartridge bed.

• Completely Safe & Stable: The media does not dissolve into your drinking water; it permanently holds onto the trapped fluoride until the cartridge reaches the end of its filter lifespan.

Exact 8-Stage Layer Breakdown

• Stage 1: Primary Filter Felt Pad

  Sits at the top of the cartridge to capture coarse rust, silt, sand, and physical sediment before water enters the primary media.

• Stage 2: KDF (Kinetic Degradation Fluxion) Media

  Uses a natural oxidation-reduction (redox) process to target heavy metals (such as lead, mercury, and nickel), reduce chlorine, and control scale build-up.

• Stage 3: Premium Coconut-Shell Activated Carbon

  Absorbs chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pesticides, and unpleasant chemical odours to deliver clean, fresh-tasting water.

• Stage 4: Mineralised Balls

  Reintroduces natural trace element minerals into the water stream.

• Stage 5: Activated Alumina (AA) Media

  Specifically targets and binds fluoride ions to reduce municipal tap water fluoride levels.

• Stage 6: Secondary Activated Carbon & Mineral Layer

  Provides a fine-polishing pass of carbon combined with mineral media to enhance water clarity, taste, and mineral balance.

• Stage 7: Mineral Ceramic & Far-Infrared Media

  Polishes the water for a smooth drinking texture while supporting a balanced pH level.

• Stage 8: Micro-Porous Ceramic Plate & Final Pad

  Acts as the final physical barrier at the bottom of the cartridge to trap micro-particulates and fine sediment down to 0.5 microns.
