CAUTION
:
The Laica tap filter is a device intended for the treatment
of drinking water. The HYDROSMART™ filter filters
drinking water, improving its taste and reducing any
unwanted substances that may otherwise be present.
Laica HYDROSMART™ filters consist of activated carbon
and hollow fibre membranes. Activated carbons are
generally effective in reducing chlorine and derivatives.
The HYDROSMART™ filter also effectively reduces:
chlorine, microplastics, chlorinated herbicides and
pesticides, chlorinated organic solvents, particulates and
micro waste, sand and rust and suspended particles”.
The LAICA Venezia tap filter allows you to select from 3
different water delivery modes:
1) Filtered water for drinking.
2) Unfiltered water with spray head.
3) Unfiltered water with continuous stream.
CAUTION:
The Laica HYDROSMART™ filter filters water, which IN
ANY CASE MUST BE DRINKABLE and microbiologically
safe (check with the competent authority in your region).
For informed use, request information from your mains
water supplier or test the water coming from your
house tap.
