20L Mineral Activated Carbon Filter Bottle

Product Parameter

Design & Daily Capacity

With a 20‑litre lower reservoir, the AFK-09F is sized for households where several people draw drinking water throughout the day. The transparent AS body lets users see the remaining volume without opening the lid, so refills can be planned around meal times. A flat, stable base keeps the bottle upright on a counter or pantry shelf.

The upper chamber accepts tap water directly. Once filled, water begins moving through the filter cartridge under gravity alone. There is no pump, no power cord, and no plumbing connection to manage. This makes the unit portable between rooms—kitchen to dining area, for example—without any reinstallation.

Filter Cartridge & Mineral Release

Filter Replacement & Cleaning

A new cartridge should be rinsed under running water before first use to flush away loose carbon dust and mineral fines. Once installed, the cartridge can process tap water continuously; there is no waiting period between fills. The recommended replacement interval is 3–6 months, adjusted according to household consumption and the sediment level of the local water supply.

The AS body and PP lid can be hand‑washed with mild dish soap and lukewarm water. Dishwashers should be avoided because high heat can distort the plastic. When the filter bottle will not be used for an extended period, both chambers should be emptied and left open to air‑dry in a ventilated spot away from sunlight.

Suitability & Placement

The AFK-09F fits into daily routines in several common settings. In a family kitchen, the 20‑litre capacity covers drinking and cooking water for multiple members without constant refilling. Rental apartments and dormitories benefit from the lack of plumbing: the bottle sits on a countertop or a sturdy shelf and requires only a nearby tap. Small offices or break rooms can use it to give staff access to filtered water without installing a plumbed‑in cooler. Because the unit is lightweight and portable, it can also be taken to holiday homes or outdoor events where tap water is available but a fixed filter is not.

While the bottle works best on a level surface away from direct heat sources, it does not need to be near an electrical outlet. This means it can be placed in a corner of the kitchen, a pantry, or even a shaded balcony, provided the temperature remains within normal room range.

Environmental & Cost Note

Using a refillable gravity filter reduces reliance on single‑use plastic water bottles. Over the lifespan of one cartridge, a household can avoid hundreds of disposable bottles, cutting down on plastic waste. The cartridge itself is replaceable, and the AS/PP housing is recyclable at the end of its service life.

On the cost side, filtering tap water through the AFK-09F typically costs less per litre than buying bottled water. For a family that consumes 20 litres of drinking water per day, the ongoing expense is limited to the periodic replacement cartridge; there is no electricity consumption and no maintenance contract. The exact savings depend on local bottled‑water prices and cartridge pricing, but the operational cost is generally lower than either bottled water delivery or plumbed‑in systems that require professional filter changes.

Certifications & Production

Aofukang carries out batch‑level checks on the AFK-09F: material conformity, moulding quality, and visual inspection of each assembled unit. The certifications below are held by the factory and can be presented for import or retail documentation.

The Cixi facility covers 7,153 m², runs 6 assembly lines, and delivers over 300,000 units annually. In‑house injection moulding gives the factory direct control over the AS and PP housing parts. Private‑label packaging and custom branding are supported subject to a minimum order quantity.
