Aquasana Claryum Water Filter

No, it does not. Unlike reverse osmosis systems that strip water of all minerals, the Claryum technology is designed to selectively filter out contaminants while retaining naturally occurring, healthy minerals for better taste.

The filters are rated for 6 months or 500 gallons of use, whichever comes first. The system is designed for easy, twist-off replacement, so you can swap them out in seconds without disconnecting any water lines.

This system is NSF-certified to reduce 78 common contaminants, including lead, PFAS, microplastics, chlorine, and chloramines. It holds certifications for NSF/ANSI standards 42, 53, and 401.

Yes, this system includes a dedicated designer faucet that installs directly onto your sink. It is a separate fixture from your main kitchen faucet, ensuring your filtered water remains distinct from your regular tap water.

The primary difference is the filtration process. While reverse osmosis removes almost everything from the water, this system uses selective filtration to target impurities while keeping beneficial minerals intact. It is also generally easier to install and maintain than a standard reverse osmosis setup.
