About the product
3M™ Under Sink Water Filter Replacement Cartridges are replacement cartridges for 3M™ Drinking Water Filter System FM1500 and FM1500-B. These under sink water filter replacement cartridges provide cleaner, clearer, better tasting drinking water using a mechanical filtration process.
Product details
3M™ Under Sink Water Filter Replacement Cartridges can be used with 3M™ Drinking Water Filter System 1500-B (for offices, commercial buildings and cafeterias with water coolers installed) and FM1500 (for homes, offices, commercial buildings and cafeterias with water coolers installed). These under sink water filter replacement cartridges help deliver cleaner, clearer, better tasting drinking water straight to your tap or water cooler with a mechanical filtration process that reduces asbestos, lead, cysts, chlorine taste and odor, common water-borne bacteria* (FM1500-B only), algae (FM1500-B only), mold spores** (FM1500-B only) and sediment. By connecting to 3M’s compact under sink drinking water filtration systems, these point-of-use filter cartridges replace bottled water to provide an ideal sustainable solution for home, office or commercial water coolers that do not contain mercury or require electricity to function. The Drinking Water Filter System 1500-B also uses a mechanical filtration process as opposed to irradiation or other disinfection methods to help reduce bacteria in your drinking water.
