FILTERS
Version 1.1
November 2021
The Endurance Filter utilises a cat ion resin which in combination with the
Peak Water bypass system, allows for control of the alkalinity in the water.
The Endurance Filter lowers the overall TDS to a lesser degree than the
Precision Filter, but allows for alkalinity control whilst maintaining a
significantly longer life and number of litres filtered.
The Filter also contains activated carbon to treat contaminants in the source
water, as well as a sodium buffer to help stabilise PH.
Using Your Endurance Filter
Soak the Filter in tap water for 10 minutes.
NOTE: This soaking process should be completed with every new Peak Water Filter.
Prepare Peak Water
-
Lower the Liner back into the Jug Body and place the newly primed Filter into the Liner.
The Filter will slide into place at the bottom of the Liner. -
With a small amount of pressure, press down on the Filter to seal it to the bottom of the Liner.
Test Water
- Run your cold tap for a few seconds and take a sample of 200ml (a small glass of water).
- Remove a Test Strip from its packaging and submerge the entire stripin the water for 5 seconds.
- Remove and hold for 10 seconds. The yellow tab should now have changed colour.
- Compare your results with the chart (on the next page) and move the Peak Water dial to our recommended setting.
Recommended Settings
For greater accuracy, compare your results against the colour chart supplied with the Test Strips. Times are based on 1.2 litres of tap water filtered at the corresponding setting.
| RESULT | SETTING | APPROX. TIME |
|---|---|---|
| 4m 30s | ||
| 2m 30s | ||
| 1m 30s | ||
| 1m 15s | ||
| 1m |
The Lifespan of an Endurance Filter
The lifespan of a Filter is directly related to the volume and the hardness of the water it filters. Harder water means more work for the filter and therefore a reduced lifetime capacity.
NOTE: The results of the above graph assume you have used our recommended
settings.
**** We recommend you change your Filter at a minimum of every 2 months to
maintain a hygienic filtration environment, regardless of hardness levels
and/or amount filtered.
Replacing a Used Cartridge
When your Filter has come to the end of its life you will need to remove and replace it with a fresh one. This is easy to do.
- Simply hold the dial in the RELEASE position, remove the Lid and use the ring pull to lift the Filter up and out of the Liner.
Remember to prime each new Peak Water Filter.

Recycle
Peak Water Filters are designed to be completely regenerable and fully recyclable. You can send your used Filters (2 per shipment) back to us using our prepaid Royal Mail service that can be found on our website under “recycling”.
- Place any used filter in a sink or draining board to dry out overnight.
- Once you have collected two used Filters, use the original packaging and apply the prepaid label you have printed off.
- Prepaid postage is included with replacement Filters only, as you will most likely always have one Filter in use.
- Drop the used Filters off at your local Post Office or nearest mailbox.
- Your Filter will then be returned to us where it will be disassembled. All plastics will be recycled for further use and all resins will be washed, recharged and reused in new Peak Water Filters.
- As of the printing of this manual (November 2021) this service is UK-only. We are currently working with international partners to broaden the Peak Water recycling program. Visit peak-water.com/recycling to see how we’re doing!
