AquaTru Carafe (AT100)

Beyond taste alone

Four stages. One daily habit.

Pre/carbon filtration prepares the water, the reverse-osmosis membrane reduces dissolved substances, and the final carbon filter finishes the process.

  1. Stages 1 & 2: Pre/carbon filterCaptures sediment and reduces chlorine before water reaches the membrane.
  2. Stage 3: Reverse osmosisA membrane separates purified water from a concentrated stream of rejected substances.
  3. Stage 4: VOC carbon filterFinal filtration for additional listed organic compounds and taste.

The Carafe performance data sheet documents reductions including lead, fluoride, chromium-6, chlorine, chloramine, and PFOA/PFOS, under specified test conditions. IAPMO certification covers the applicable claims under NSF/ANSI 42, 53, 58 and 401.

Not every contaminant is present in every water supply. Reduction is not complete removal. Performance depends on source water, operation and filter maintenance.

Both require power and manual tank refilling. Allow room above and around the unit to remove tanks and change filters. Tank capacity is storage volume, not a guaranteed output per refill.

Living with Carafe

Easy to start. Simple to maintain.

  1. Set upInstall the included filters, wash the removable containers and complete the initial flushing steps in your Carafe manual.
  2. RefillFill with cold potable tap water. Empty the water left after a cycle before refilling; do not continually top up the concentrated remainder.
  3. Keep it cleanClean tanks and descale as instructed. Follow the filter indicators and replacement limits, whichever requires attention first.

Carafe replacement guide

Pre/carbon filter
6 months or 300 gallons
VOC carbon filter
1 year or 300 gallons
Reverse-osmosis filter
2 years or 600 gallons

Replace at the time or capacity limit, whichever comes first. Water quality can shorten filter life.

Choose Carafe-compatible filters. Classic and Carafe filters are not interchangeable.

Ready to get started

Your Carafe includes the purifier, glass carafe, tap-water tank, pre/carbon filter, RO filter, VOC carbon filter and power adapter. Follow the included manual before your first glass.

Check your water first

Use cold, microbiologically safe water. The performance sheets specify a maximum hardness of 10 grains per gallon (171 mg/L) and TDS of 1,500 mg/L. Harder water needs softening first. Private well or unknown-quality water needs testing and appropriate treatment.

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

My RO machine stopped working within a month of purchasing. No one would answer the phone when I called multiple times throughout the day. If you want to buy the unit, go to the manufacturer, they answer their phones.

AquaTru Carafe (AT100)

I like the convenience of ordering the filters that are associated with my reverse osmosis unit by the same company.
The handle on the water chamber seems to concern me.
It wants to catch when pulling up the handle.
You have to carefully move the handle so you dont break it.
It seems as if the handle is not designed correctly on the water chamber.
It catches at the knobs of the handle when you lift it up.
The water tastes pretty good and everything is working well.
But again the handle concerns me.
I will definitely buy another unit once this one goes out.

aquatru carafe

Superb water.No distinct taste or odor which is amazing since San Antonios water tastes horrible and smells like a combination of chlorine and turpentine.Dissolved solids I tested went from 380ppm from tap to 18ppm! and the waste water tested at 900ppm! Might be good for killing weeds😁. Thanks for setting my mind at ease about what I hydrate.

Love it!

The AquaTru Carafe works great! It's quick and easy to use and it's very quiet.

A few things to know

Which model should I choose?

Choose Classic for its larger purified-water tank and push-button dispensing. Choose Carafe for its narrower footprint and removable glass serving carafe. Compare the dimensions above with the space available in your kitchen.

Does it need plumbing or installation?

Neither model connects to your plumbing. Both need an electrical outlet, manual tank refilling and the initial setup and flushing described in the manual.

Does it chill the water?

Neither model has built-in chilling. You can place the removable glass carafe in the refrigerator.

Does reverse osmosis leave water behind?

Yes. RO separates treated water from water containing a higher concentration of rejected substances. Empty the remaining tap-tank water as instructed before the next refill.

Can I use it with a whole-home filter?

Yes. Whole-home filtration treats water entering the house; AquaTru treats the water you drink and cook with. Whether you need both depends on your water and the verified capabilities of your whole-home system.
