Benchtop Water Filters

A benchtop water filter, also called a benchtop water purifier, sits on the kitchen bench and filters water from an upper tank into a lower tank. This page has 8 stage benchtop water filters in 14L, 16L, 22L, 24L and 28L, plus three replacement parts: a ceramic dome filter globe, a mineral stone filter disc and a magnetic tap. The filters are listed as non cooling, for use at home, in an office or at a school.

How to choose a benchtop water filter

For the filter itself. The five filters share the same description and differ by capacity: 14L, 16L, 22L, 24L and 28L. The listings name a ceramic filter, activated carbon and silver activated carbon, quartz or silica sand, red mineralising balls (zeolite) and mineral sand among the 8 stages. The listings do not say how many people the sizes serve, so compare the capacity with how much water you use.

For filling the tanks. The listings say not to overfill the upper tank. If the lower tank is half full you can fill the upper tank completely, and if the lower tank is above half you must not fill the upper tank, or water may leak through the joining ring.

For replacements. The ceramic dome filter globe measures about 99mm across the wider part and about 80mm from the plastic to the top of the dome. The mineral stone filter disc is about 14cm in diameter and 3cm high, and its listing says it suits 12L to 28L benchtop water filter dispensers. The magnetic tap lists a 17mm tap screw insert and a push to flow action, and asks you to check the size and dimensions against your filter before you buy.
