CAUTION:
The GENOVA tap filter is a device intended for the treatment
of drinking water.
The HYDROSMART™ METAL
STOP filter filters drinking
water, improving its taste and
reducing any unwanted

otherwise be present. The
HYDROSMART™ METAL
STOP filter is used to filter
m a i n s d r i n k i n g w a t e r ,
i m p r o v i n g i t s t a s t e b y
reducing any unwanted substances that may be present.
The HYDROSMART™ METAL STOP filters consist of silver-
coated vegetable-based activated carbon, a special ion
exchange resin and hollow fibre membranes. Activated
carbons are generally effective in reducing chlorine and
derivatives, while the ion exchange resin blocks heavy
metals such as lead that may be present in mains water.
The hollow fibre module, instead, is effective in removing
microplastics, particulate matter and micro-debris that may
be present in mains water.
The HYDROSMART™ METAL STOP filter maintains
the mineral salts naturally present in mains water and
effectively reduces: heavy metals such as lead and
cadmium, microplastics, sand, rust, suspended particles,
chlorine, chlorinated organic herbicides and pesticides and
chlorinated organic solvents.
The GENOVA tap filter allows you to select from 2 different
water delivery modes:
1) Filtered water for drinking.
2) Unfiltered water with spray head.
CAUTION:
The HYDROSMART™ METAL STOP 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.
