Other Substances (Pesticides, Herbicides, Iron, PFAS, Hormones)

The activated carbon in both Pure and Enriched filter granules may help reduce substances such as:

  • Pesticides

  • Herbicides

  • Iron

  • PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances)

  • Hormones

However, the effectiveness in reducing these substances depends on the initial composition of your tap water. Because water quality varies by household and location, we cannot provide specific reduction percentages for these substances.


Limitations

The Aarke Water Purifier is not designed to remove the following:

  • Microplastics

  • Medicines / Pharmaceutical residues

  • Fluoride

  • Nitrates

  • Oestrogen

  • Viruses

These substances require different filtration technologies that are not part of our current system. The Aarke Purifier is designed to improve key aspects of everyday tap water quality.
