Moby Hard Water Filter

The Moby Hard Water Filter is perfect for medium hard water areas. However, if you live in a high or very hard water area, such as the south east of England, then the most effective hard water filter for you is our Moby OneFlow, Moby Taste and OneFlow, or even our whole house Doby OneFlow Hard Water Filter.

Our Moby hard water filter is a cost effective alternative to a water softener. The siliphos crystal inserts that we add to the carbon block cartridge change the chemical properties of the dissolved carbonates so that the scale doesn't become a residue and stick to your household appliances.

This filter plumbs into your mains water and also filters out chlorine, chloramines and other chemicals and organic compounds. There is no need for a separate water filter tap.

When fitting a Moby mains water filter please allow for a minimum of H 38cm x W 30cm x D 18cm.

Your kit will include:

• 1 x big blue filter housing

Do you have to install a mains water filter under the sink?

No, you don't. You can install your mains water filter wherever the cold water supply enters your house. This could be a utility room, garage, or other location.
