Certified protection against legionella and germs

The Nano shower filter protects where legionella is most dangerous: in the shower, where water is inhaled as an aerosol. The 0.1 µm hollow-fibre membrane retains 99.999% of all germs, bacteria and legionella – preventively or in the event of acute contamination.

Fitted in seconds between the tap and the shower hose.

What the Nano shower filter can do

What the Nano shower filter can do

Nano germ filter with 0.1 µm hollow-fibre membrane. The Nano cartridge uses its hollow-fibre membrane (principle of bundled drinking straws, 0.1 µm) to retain microorganisms purely mechanically – without chemicals, certified to ASTM F838-15A.

Microorganisms

Microorganisms

The Nano cartridge focuses on filtering germs and bacteria in high concentrations, e.g. E. coli, Vibrio cholerae, Shigella, Salmonella.

Legionella

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

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

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.

Stops germs and bacteria

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.

Our water filters are manufactured in southern Germany and are subject to Alb Filter's high standards of quality and durability.

Concealed tap? The spacer helps

The Alb shower filter is fitted between the tap and the shower hose. The distance between the wall and the centre of the connection thread must be at least 35 mm. If the distance is not sufficient, the Alb Filter spacer solves the problem.

  • Surface-mounted tap (standard) – The connection protrudes far enough from the wall. The filter can be screwed on directly.Surface-mounted tap (standard) – The connection protrudes far enough from the wall. The filter can be screwed on directly.

Frequently asked questions

Why a germ filter in the shower, of all places?

Showering creates a fine water mist (aerosol) that is inhaled – the main transmission route for legionella. The Nano filter retains them right before the shower head.

Does the filter help in the event of acute legionella contamination?

Yes. The 0.1 µm membrane can be used preventively and after a positive test result – certified to ASTM F838-15A, with linked lab reports.

How often does the cartridge need to be changed?

Every 6 months or after 5,000–7,000 litres – depending on water quality and showering habits.

Will the filter fit my shower tap?

Yes, with a standard ½" thread between the tap and the shower hose. For concealed taps, the optional spacer helps (minimum distance 35 mm).

When is the Protect pre-filter worthwhile?

As a rule: the 40 µm pad protects the fine 0.1 µm membrane from sediment and noticeably extends its service life.

    Shipping went smoothly and quickly. Installation in the shower was really easy. The filter performance is right too. The germ load is demonstrably (I won't go into more detail now) at 0. I am very satisfied.
