UrQuelle OPAL – Countertop Water Filter with Activated Carbon

• High-performance activated carbon filter from Carbonit (Made in Germany): Significantly higher safety factor than conventional activated carbon block filters
• Strong filtration: Reliably removes PFAS, microplastics, heavy metals, drug residues, pesticides, chlorine, bacteria, and other pollutants
• Integrated UMH swirling & energization: Noticeably softer, more vibrant water with improved bioavailability
• Extremely easy installation: Connects directly to the faucet with a diverter valve – no tools, no special knowledge required
• Countertop filter with tap: Works immediately, no modifications necessary

In the integrated UMH universal device, the filtered water undergoes additional physical treatment. Centripetal swirling (inward-directed rotational movement) erases disturbing pollutant information and burdensome frequencies in the water. At the same time, the lime structure changes, making the water noticeably softer.

In a further step, the water is energized and restructured: The water flows past semi-precious stones with a high crystalline order, which transmit bioenergetic fields. Among other things, the natural frequency spectrum of 22.5 Hz is measurably returned to the water. The result is a newly structured, crystalline water – comparable to high-quality spring or healing water. Numerous expert opinions and long-term studies confirm this effect.

The UrQuelle OPAL reliably filters numerous unwanted substances from tap water. These include PFAS, microplastics, heavy metals, drug residues, pesticides, chemicals, organic compounds, asbestos fibers, bacteria, as well as chlorine and chlorine breakdown products. Fine suspended solids are also effectively retained.

The OPAL uses a high-quality activated carbon block filter from Carbonit, made in Germany. This filter has a significantly increased activated carbon mass, achieving an exceptionally high adsorption capacity. Pollutants are reliably removed, while valuable minerals in the water are preserved.

No, limescale is not completely removed. Instead, the integrated UMH device changes the limescale structure, which can reduce deposits. The water is subjectively perceived as softer, without losing its natural mineralization. For reliable limescale removal, an osmosis system like the Urquelle Diamant or a whole-house water system like the Zum EVOdescale is necessary.

First, the water is mechanically and adsorptively purified by the activated carbon block filter. It then passes through the UMH universal device, where centripetal swirling and an energetic restructuring take place. This physically treats the water and optimizes its structure.

The OPAL is a compact countertop device for point-of-use filtration directly at the tap. It achieves a filter fineness of approx. 0.35 µm with a flow rate of about 1.7 liters per minute. The filter should be replaced after a maximum of 10,000 liters or 6 months. The device is operated exclusively with cold water and is available in white, silver, or anthracite.

The UrQuelle OPAL is a countertop water filter and is installed directly on your existing kitchen faucet. The filtering is a point-of-use solution right where the drinking water is drawn.

Yes. Installation is easy and requires no special expertise. The OPAL comes with a diverter valve and suitable adapters and can be installed independently in just a few minutes – completely without tools.

The activated carbon filter should be changed after no more than 10,000 liters or 6 months for hygiene reasons – whichever comes first. This is based on the applicable hygiene protection guidelines (DIN EN 806-5).

The cost of the filter change is determined by the price of the corresponding Carbonit filter cartridge (GFP Premium-U9). There are no additional maintenance or service costs, as the change can be done yourself.

The filter change is straightforward: The filter housing is opened, the used activated carbon cartridge is removed and replaced with a new one. Then the housing is closed again – done. No tools or technical expertise are required.
