Application:
Pour water and cartridge dive 5 minutes to pour away the water, use cartridge filter 1 water filling, pour away the water (I use it for watering plants), for the next filtering process, the water is already used.
The filters should be changed every 4 weeks (on the package)
Price:
BWT offers a refill system for the cartridges, thus one must therefore not dispose of the entire cartridge after 4 weeks, but it is only the included granules with fresh granules replaced.
The price for a 3-pack cartridges is around 20 euros, alternatively you can get for the same money, the 4-Refill pack. However, I expect that there will soon be here in the larger department stores special promotions with the BWT Mg2 cartridges, as is regularly the Brita cartridges the case.
My personal experience with these cartridges:
This BWT Mg2 + cartridges I test now since about 4 weeks extensively in my Brita Yource (a separate water filter have and I do not need after the "Old" has given up the ghost and I have the Yource); The cartridges fit perfectly, although I had my doubts because of the height difference to the Brita cartridges until so.
Very positive I noticed at the beginning that the BWT cartridges need after the first dive only 1 rinse cycle, before you can use the filtered water. In my Brita cartridges previously used had always only 1x dipped, and then 2 more washes were still necessary. Here scores BWT cartridge before definitely by the rapid onset and fewer rinses.
The transit time of the water seems to me less, you have so quickly filtered water on hand.
The water tastes softer and rounder, on the coffee, for example, are no streaks to see how that is with us again and again with the use of unfiltered tap water is the case, and also the coffee flavor is better advantage. The coffee flavor tastes more intense and the coffee seems acceptable.
I use the BWT filtered water for the preparation of coffee (normal filter machine + pad machine), tea, fruit punches, Brita Yource drinks and drink but it also gallons of pure. I also use the water for my ironing system, which is suitable for tap water and even my little balcony solar fountain I befülle with filtered water, the kettle of course also; thus I can save for a long time before the decalcification of these devices (we have very hard tap water).
My mother (lives next door) I take care of every day with one and a half liters of filtered water, because the water pipes are already about 50 years old at her house and I do not want that you drink unfiltered water therefrom; Filter the BWT cartridge yes lead, copper, lime and chlorine from the water, which I feel very calm, especially in very old water pipes. Since the conversion to BWT cartridge my mother takes to avoid nocturnal leg cramps no magnesium effervescent more; Leg cramps are apparently so far not aufgetreten.Hier because of the magnesium content in the cartridges in her we will do in any case, even the long-term test .....
My friend used the BWT filtered water even for their soda stream, since they do not like still water. As you can see, with a little imagination the use of a water filter is no limit to the BWT cartridge.
The manufacturer advertises on its website so that when daily consumption of 1 liter of filtered water with the Mg 2+ cartridges about 10% of the daily magnesium content covered (depending on the hardness of the water); Although this seems at first glance as not much, one should bear in mind that you will indeed with other beverages and foods further magnesium to, however.
The taste I can not tell the difference now to the Brita filters previously used by me honestly; but alone is the possibility of refilling and of course the higher mineral content and magnesium make my decision very easy: I will my remaining Brita filters use up, and then completely change to the BWT cartridges, especially since it in itself in about move the same price level.
My personal conclusion:
I for years no longer want to miss out on filtered water, I'll treat myself to the future, the new Mg2 technology. So I am doing my body good, and at the same time I spare even the environment by I'll use the refill system.
