Category: FILTERING BOTTLE

Filtering bottles are used to purify tap water. The carbon filter included in them reduces chlorine and other substances that negatively affect the taste and smell of consumed water. Dafi filtering bottles are reusable, so you reduce the amount of plastic waste. One replaceable filter can substitute 300 disposable half-litre water bottles from the store.

Filtering bottles contain carbon filter. It removes the unpleasant taste and smell of chlorine, which is used as a water disinfectant. The activated carbon included in the reusable filter is obtained from coconut shells. It provides high filtration efficiency. Due to the fact that the bottles are small and ergonomic, you can always have them at your hand and use them in any place with access to tap water.

When using the Soft filter bottle /the filter itself for the first time, you must follow these instructions:

Wash all parts of the bottle (except the filter) with warm water and washing-up liquid. Then rinse thoroughly.
Rinse the filter under running cold water (approximately 30 seconds).
Fill 2/3 of the bottle with cold tap water, place the filter inside and close the mouthpiece.
Shake the bottle vigorously several times. The water may become greyish – this is a natural phenomenon. Pour out the water and rinse the bottle.
Fill the bottle with cold tap water, install the filter and mouthpiece. Empty the entire bottle through the mouthpiece by pressing it strongly. Rinse the bottle and repeat the process.
Fill the bottle with cold tap water. The water is ready for consumption.
Warning! The Soft filtering bottle should not be scalded or washed in a dishwasher (high temperature may deform or completely destroy the product). The bottle can be washed with water at a temperature of up to 50 Celsius degrees. The carbon filter itself can be scalded in a separate vessel. Recommended sterilization time with boiling water: 60 seconds.

Before the first use and each time the filter is changed:

Wash all the bottle components (except the filter) with water at a temperature of up to 50°C and washing-up liquid.
Rinse the filter under running cold water (about 60 seconds), with the stream directed at the filter housing openings.
Fill the bottle with tap water, put the filter in a special tube, and then install the tube in the bottle.
Cap your bottle and enjoy the tasty water wherever you are!
The bottle container can be washed in a dishwasher, while the remaining elements (screw cap, tube) should be washed with water at a temperature of up to 50oC. The carbon filter itself can be scalded in a separate vessel. Recommended sterilization time with boiling water: 60 seconds.

Remember! Carbon particles may appear in the water or it may have a greyish tint at time of use. This is a completely natural phenomenon that does not pose any health risk.

The filter should be replaced each month.

You may treat up to 150 litres of water with one filter (the equivalent of one hundred 1.5 litre water bottles from the store).

No. The filter bottle was designed for tap water and its purpose is to remove typical contaminants that may appear in it. It works great when reducing chlorine that has a negative impact on the taste and smell of water.

The filter bottle is intended for the removal of contaminants that may appear in tap water. It is not recommended to use it to filter tap water with flavourings.

Soft filter bottles are made of high-quality plastic free from harmful bisphenol A. Thanks to this, they are completely safe for health.

Dafi Solid filter bottles are made of high-quality plastics approved for contact with food. The bottle reservoir is made of durable Tritan®, free from harmful bisphenol A and S, which makes it completely safe for your health.

Yes, the same removable filter fits the filter bottles of both types.

Tritan® is an extremely durable plastic, free from harmful bisphenols A and S, and therefore safe for health. Tritan® is similar to glass, is light, and does not absorb odours. Moreover, it is dishwasher safe.

Yes, filter bottles are reusable. The Soft filter bottle is made of PET. You should remember, the symbol “one in the triangle” only refers to the type of plastic, how it is recycled and its applicability to products that come into contact with food. It should be noted that the “2” or “3” marking on the plastic also does not indicate the possibility of using it two or three times. The labelling assigned is in compliance with the legal requirements included in the Regulation of the Minister of the Environment of September 3, 2014 on packaging labelling patterns, and the number “1” is an sequence number and does not indicate a single use product, which is confirmed by tests carried out by the independent accredited institution.

Tests for the migration of possible harmful substances are carried out in an acidic solution, which is a substance much more aggressive than water. At time of testing, the indicated modular fluid is kept in the bottle for 10 days and heated. We have all the necessary certificates from the raw material supplier, confirming the safety of our product.

The reservoir of the Solid filter bottle is made of Tritan®, which is also extremely durable, strong and reusable material.

In the case of Dafi bottles (as opposed to store water), the customer can fully control the way and time of storing the water in such bottle. In the case of shop waters, the storage time and e.g. the temperature (high overheating during transport), in which the water stays before it’s consumption, is unknown.

The filter consists of activated carbon compressed under high pressure, obtained from the combustion of coconut shells. This makes it completely safe for human health. The same type of coal is used as a medicine for digestive problems.

Filter bottles can be used under parental supervision by healthy children over 3 years of age. Avoid the use of separate or small filter bottle elements by children, which could enter the oesophagus and pose a choking hazard.

The expiry date of the unpacked filter is 5 years. It should be stored properly, i.e. at room temperature, in a dry and shaded place.

As a result of contact of the carbon filter with water, the taste of the water may change, apart from reducing possible impurities (it depends on the quality of the output tap water). Moreover, filtration increases the pH of filtered water in relation to tap water, which is a favourable phenomenon.

No. The filter consists of compressed activated carbon. It may happen that its particles appear in the water. They are not dangerous to your health, because the carbon filter is a substance of natural origin. The same type of coal is used as a medicine for digestive problems.

Yes. The filter consists of compressed carbon, but its form does not affect the efficiency of filtration.

The water should be used within 12 hours from filling the bottle, to ensure its freshness and cleanliness.

The water should be used within 12 hours from filling the bottle, to ensure its freshness and cleanliness.

The filter itself contains carbon of fully natural origin, so you may throw it to the dust bin without any problems. Its housing is made of plastics and should be placed in a container intended for its storage.

Only cold tap water should be filtered.

For hygiene reasons, the filter should be stored in a dry and cool place (e.g. in a refrigerator), and the bottle should be washed with water and washing-up liquid.

Filter bottles should be washed regularly in warm water with a dish-washing liquid.

The Soft filtering bottle should not be washed in a dishwasher and should not be scalded with water at a temperature above 50°C (high temperature may deform or completely destroy the product).

The reservoir of the Solid filter bottle is dishwasher safe.

The bottle carbon filter (the same carbon filter in both types of bottle) can be scalded in a separate vessel. Recommended sterilization time with boiling water: 60 seconds.
