Tap-Safe Legionella Filter SS-885 Product Overview
The SS-885 Tap-Safe Legionella Filter is the most effective point-of-use filter for blocking organic/inorganic contaminant and waterborne bacterial pathogens such as Non-Tuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) and Legionella. The independently lab tested and certified Anti-Legionella Filters reduce Legionella sp. by more than7 Logs. It means a 99.99999% reduction in bacterial count. These Anti-Legionella Filters are cost effective, easy to install and maintain without requiring major plumbing modifications, extensive training or specialised equipment. Replacement membrane filters are available for purchase, negating the need to replace shower heads or taps, making these filters cost effective.
How does the Tap-Safe Legionella Filter SS-885 work?
The Hollow Fibre Membrane (HFM) that makes up the Tap-Safe Legionella SS-885 filter has microscopic holes that can prevents contaminants down to 0.15μm (microns). Tap-Safe Legionella Filter SS-885 utilises a dense network of HFM to physically trap bacteria, including NTM and Legionella. Even if some bacteria manages to squeeze through the upper layers of HFM, as water passes through the network of ‘meshes’ they eventually get trapped further in. With rated capacity of 5,000L, the HFM is made in such a way that it has a high surface area that reduces the likelihood of the filter getting blocked.

Features and Benefits of Tap-Safe Legionella Filter SS-885
  • Long lifespan of 5000L (approximately 160 showers) depending on water quality and usage
  • Utilise a dense network of Hollow Fibre Membrane (HFM) filter technology to physically trap bacteria. Pore size is smaller than all bacteria effectively remove NTM and Legionella bacteria reaching the end user, thereby protecting immunocompromised individuals from harmful waterborne pathogens
  • The filter material prevents organic and inorganic contaminants down to 0.15μm (microns).
  • The filter design also prevents harmful contaminants from flowing back into main water supply
  • Lab tested and certified that the Anti-Legionella Filters reduce bacteria by more than Log 7, which means more than 99.99999% reduction in bacterial count
  • Independently tested and certified filters are compliant to US and EU Standards as well as meeting the efficacy tests
  • Easy to install and maintain, SS-885 filter units can be installed on existing water outlets making it a cost-effective risk management without requiring major plumbing modification, extensive training, or specialised equipment
  • Invest only once in a full filter unit with easy and cost effective replaceable filter
  • Simply connect the Tap-Safe Legionella Filter to a tap
  • Once installed, Tap-Safe Legionella Filter provides an immediate continuous protection for all users against the risk of NTM and Legionella bacteria from entering the water supply through the tap
  • Regular maintenance only with non-abrasive cleaning products
