Duo Nano
Germ and bacteria filter for the tap
The Duo Nano two-way tap filter delivers the best drinking water only when you really need it. This conserves the cartridge's capacity – and with it the environment and your wallet. With its highly effective 0.1 µm hollow-fibre membrane, the Nano cartridge effectively retains bacteria, legionella and microplastics from the water.
The Duo is available in stainless steel, matt or black and turns any kitchen tap into a real eye-catcher. The filter housing fits all common taps with an M22 thread. With the included M24 adapter, the Alb Filter Duo is ready to use straight away in many cases. If a different adapter is required, we'll be happy to include it. Ideally, determine the thread size of your tap before ordering – you'll find instructions in our thread guide.
The Duo filter housing
Made of high-quality V4A stainless steel
The robust and durable stainless steel housing is free of harmful substances, corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, germ-resistant and neutral in odour and taste.
Easy activation of the filter stage
With the stainless steel diverter lever, you can quickly switch between filtered and unfiltered water.
Compatible with all standard taps
Thanks to a wide range of adapters, the Duo can be installed on almost all standard taps. Our thread guide helps you find the right adapter.
One housing, three cartridges
Choose between our drinking water cartridges Active, Active+ and Nano.
10-year warranty on the stainless steel housing
Our Duo stainless steel housings come with a 10-year manufacturer's warranty.
Made in southern Germany
The Duo filter housing is manufactured in southern Germany and meets Alb Filter's high standards.
Filtered or unfiltered?
With the stainless steel diverter lever, you decide with a simple flick: filtered water for drinking and cooking –
unfiltered water at full mains pressure for washing up.
This saves filter capacity and significantly extends the life of the cartridge.
Will it fit my tap?
The Duo fits all standard taps with an M22 female or M24 male thread – for other sizes, matching adapters are available (selectable free of charge when ordering).
Not suitable for:
- pull-out taps without a locking mechanism
- taps with sensor technology
- permanently fitted or oval/square aerators
- unpressurised water heaters connected upstream
In these cases, one of our under-sink water filters is better suited.
What is filtered?
Nano cartridge with 0.1 µm hollow-fibre membrane: it retains 99.999% of all germs and bacteria purely mechanically – certified according to ASTM F838-15A, at a full flow rate of approx. 11 l/min.
Microorganisms
The Nano cartridge focuses on filtering germs and bacteria in high concentrations, e.g. E. coli, Vibrio cholerae, Shigella, Salmonella.
Legionella
The Nano cartridge reliably filters legionella out of tap water. Whether as a preventive measure or following a positive legionella test.
Microplastics and other fine particles
The pores of the hollow-fiber membrane are about 700 times finer than a hair (0.1 µm) – microscopically small plastic particles and other particles can't get through.
Biofilm-forming microorganisms
Reduces the formation of biofilm and other deposits caused by bacteria.
Stops germs and bacteria
Inside the Nano cartridge is a hollow-fiber membrane made of thousands of ultra-thin tubes, similar to bundled drinking straws. Its pores measure just 0.1 µm – about 700 times finer than a human hair and therefore smaller than bacteria. This keeps out germs, bacteria and legionella as well as microplastics and other particles.
Protection against legionella!
This certified quality solution offers maximum protection against Legionnaires' disease. The Nano cartridge can be used both preventively and in the event of acute legionella contamination and provides protection in accordance with ASTM F838-15A.
Optionally with a pre-filter cap
The fine 0.1 µm membrane of the Nano cartridge benefits from protection against coarse particles: the optional pre-filter cap retains sediment, rust and sand, thus extending the service life of the cartridge – it simply slips over the cartridge.

Frequently asked questions
What thread does my tap have?
Most kitchen taps have an M22 female or M24 male thread. Unscrew the aerator and measure – our thread guide takes you to the right adapter in 4 steps.
What if the adapter doesn't fit?
We'll exchange adapters free of charge until one fits. Just write to us with a photo of your tap.
How much does the Duo reduce limescale?
The Active Plus+ cartridge reduces carbonate hardness by approx. 4–6 °dH through ion exchange – limescale stains on glasses and in the kettle visibly decrease.
Does the filter reduce the water pressure?
Filtered water flows at approx. 6 l/min (at 3 bar) – enough for drawing water and cooking. For washing up, you switch to unfiltered using the lever and get the full mains pressure.
Does the Duo fit pull-out taps?
Only if the spray head can be locked in place. The Duo cannot be fitted to freely movable hose spray heads or sensor taps.

The filter works. However, the company still has to learn what customer service means: e.g. reacting and replying to emails! Really disappointing and incomprehensible how a small company can do that.

Der Filter funktioniert. Die Firma muss jedoch noch lernen, was Kundenservice heisst: z.B. Reaktion und Antwort auf Mails! Wirklich enttäuschend und unbegreiflich, wie eine kleine Firma das machen kann.

The company Blaufaktor GmbH und Co KG is a very customer-oriented company - and the water filter is great - the tap water tastes much better - only fitting the water filter to the tap was very difficult as it was hard to get it watertight. But in hindsight the effort was worth it.

Die Firma Blaufaktor GmbH und Co KG ist eine sehr kundenorientierte Firma - und der Wasserfilter ist toll - das Leitungswasser schmeckt viel besser - einzig die Montage des Wasserfilters am Wasserhahn war sehr schwierig da dieser kaum dicht zu kriegen war. Aber im Nachhinein hat sich die Mühe gelohnt.
