Reduce microplastics in your water
Microplastics (defined as less than 5 millimeters in diameter) are tiny plastic particles found in various environments, including drinking water. While research on their potential health impact is ongoing, they are a growing concern.
Choosing a water filter that effectively removes microplastics can provide peace of mind as well as benefits to your long term health. With the Mountain Fresh system, you can stop worrying. Our powerful filtration system, with both a pharmaceutical grade 0.4 and 0.2 micron filter, gives you peace of mind, knowing you’re drinking the cleanest water possible.
During a boil water advisory, water from your Mountain Fresh 3 Stage Filtration System is safe to drink.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How often does the Mountain Fresh Filter need to be changed?
This will depend on a number of factors, including how many people will be using the filter and whether it is a commercial or home application. Generally speaking, filters for residential use will last five years before the first stage filter needs to be changed. Current data from field use of the second and third stage filters shows them lasting an average of 10 years.
Why do other filters on the market need to be changed more frequently?
There are generally three reasons for the extended life of the Mountain Fresh filter over other filters on the market.
1. The .2 sediment filter. By putting a .2 sediment filter in front of the carbon bed, we are ensuring that absolutely no particulate matter enters the carbon bed, thus extending its life. Carbon is very porous by nature and as a result, if particulate matter is allowed to enter the carbon bed, it would plug off very quickly.
2. We use only laboratory grade components. Mountain Fresh combines a .4 micron filter with a .2 micron sediment filter. If you check other filters on the market, you will see that some systems use filters as big as 5 microns or 1 micron, thus meaning lower quality and more frequent changes.
3. Carbon comes in many different grades and Mountain Fresh uses only premium grade organic carbon infused with silver in their water filters. The filters average approximately 6,000 gallons of water before the cartridge is spent.
What is the difference between a Mountain Fresh Filter and a Reverse Osmosis Filter?
A Mountain Fresh filter will remove sediment, chemicals, giardia and cryptosporidium while leaving in beneficial minerals. A reverse osmosis filter on the other hand, will remove approximately 97% of minerals in the water as well as the sediment and chemicals. Mountain Fresh carries both filters and will endeavor to find the one that is right for you.
We live on an acreage; will this filter work for our well water?
Well water often has different properties and characteristics than municipally treated water; therefore we recommend that you have your well water analyzed so that we may assist you in selecting the proper equipment.
Does the Mountain Fresh unit remove fluoride?
The three stage Mountain Fresh system will not remove the fluoride in your water, as it is a mineral and the system has been designed to leave all minerals in the water. However, a fourth stage can be added to the filter to selectively remove the fluoride while leaving in all other minerals. There is an additional cost to this fourth stage and it will need to be changed every three years.
What about bacteria build-up in the filter?
Chlorine, which is still in your water during the first two stages of the filter, will remove all bacteria present in the water.
During the third stage of the filter however, when the chlorine is removed, silver has been bonded to the granular activated carbon which inhibits any bacteria growth. This ensures that you can leave your filter unattended for weeks or months at a time without the fear of bacteria growth in your water filter.
Can I take this filter to our new home when we move?
Yes! For a small fee, Mountain Fresh will remove your filter and reinstall it into your new home when you move. We simply put a chrome plug into the hole where the tap used to be and you can now enjoy Mountain Fresh water at your new home.
Can the filter be hooked to the water line in my fridge?
Yes! If we can access the water line running to your fridge, we can install a tee in the line and you will have cooled Mountain Fresh water from your fridge.

RESIDENTIAL MAINTENANCE
The Mountain Fresh Canada filter contains laboratory grade sediment filters and premium grade, organic coconut based granular activated carbon (infused with silver). Because of these high quality components, this filter is the best on the market for sediment and chemical removal. Simple maintenance will ensure that your Mountain Fresh unit remains functioning properly for years to come.
The first stage .4 micron filter is replaced only when the water flow starts to slow down at the tap (roughly 1200 gallons). The .4 micron filter will trap all sediment, rust and particulate matter. In a residential application, this filter lasts an average of five years before it needs to be replaced.
Replacement Cost: $125.00
(includes technician visit, GST not included)
The second stage .2 micron filter acts as a safety net should the .4 micron fail. These first two filters help keep sediment and particulate matter out of the third stage carbon filter thus maintaining its efficiency. This doubling of filters also ensures that cysts such as Beaver Fever and Cryptosporidium will be removed.
Replacement Cost: $105
(includes technician visit, GST not included)
The granular activated carbon filter should be changed when a colorimetric test (such as Orthotolidine or OTO) shows presence of chlorine. Our testing on municipally treated Calgary water showed approximately 6,300 gallons of water could be used before chlorine could be detected. For domestic use, this would be roughly 10 years at 2 gal/day.
Replacement Cost: $190.00
