The InSinkErator F-201 Filtration System is the only water filtration system designed specifically for instant hot water dispensers. The filtration system improves your drinking water by removing chlorine, and improving the taste and odor. The F-201 Filtration system is included with the InSinkErator Stainless Steel Tank (SST-FLTR) and can be added to any other Invite Series instant hot water system. You can also add the F-201 system to the InSinkErator Chilled Water Tank for great tasting water when you need it-right at your kitchen sink. The F-201 Filtration System comes with one filter. For an upgraded filter option, consider the F-601R Replacement Filter to reduce chlorine taste and odor, lead, mercury, asbestos, cysts and chemicals for cleaner, healthier water. Both filter models are designed specifically for Instant Hot Water Dispensers, but are also ideal for refrigerators, icemakers, or virtually any drinking water system.

 InSinkErator's under-counter filtration system enables consumers to forgo plastic water bottles and rely on tap water to be the primary source for drinking, cooking and preparing hot beverages. |

Why Filtration?Consuming water is an important part of our daily lives, considering it makes up about 70 percent of our body weight. While it is reported that a healthy person can live without food for weeks, a person can only survive a few days without water.
The United States offers its citizens one of the safest water supplies in the world. Even so, many consumers are using home purification systems to help ensure the best tasting and safest water for drinking and cooking. In addition, others are consuming bottled water for reasons of both convenience and safety.
As for safety, many people throughout the country have no qualms about drinking tap water due to regular testing and monitoring by government agencies to ensure it is safe. Drinking water can reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. As long as those contaminants are at levels no higher than EPA standards, the water is considered safe to drink for healthy people. There are also cases where water may go unchecked. Many homes are on private wells, not municipal water, and therefore have no EPA regulation.
But numerous consumers still seek cleaner, better tasting water, as evidenced by the billions spent on bottled water each year. And because of recent reports that some bottled water supplies come from municipal water - not pristine water sources as promoted - coupled with questions about the safety of the plastic used in many water bottles and their environmental impact, consumers are left wondering what other options exist.
InSinkErator's two filter models allow consumers to obtain instant hot (200 degree) filtered water and filtered drinking water directly from the tap.
With an InSinkErator hot/cool water dispenser, the need for bottled water becomes obsolete, as it delivers filtered drinking water directly from the tap. Other instant hot water dispenser environmental benefits include:
- Water savings compared to other methods - Uses only what's needed, zero water waste
- Improved water quality with filtration - Reduces a variety of contaminants
- Energy efficient - Heats water at the source, no energy waste

Easy to InstallThe InSinkErator F-201 Filtration System features quickconnect plumbing fittings which make installation a snap and the sanitary quick-change filter cartridge is replaced in only seconds.
A 6-12 month time span is recommended for filter cartridge replacement (it is recommended that all carbon filters be replaced within 12 months), and the filter system automatically shuts off water when the filter cartridge is being replaced.
This system is ideal for use virtually anywhere filtered water is needed, such as with ice makers and refrigerators.

Bought it to use with under-the-sink instant hot unit.
Small filter, fits well in tight space under the sink, very easy to install - literally "plug and go".
You can find all sizes and installation instructions on the manufacturer web site if you need it beforehand.

There are so many much less expensive higher quality treatment products out there. These use only their special cartridges. You are stuck with only a couple of choices. Other good quality standard filter housings can take many cartridges with many choices of treatment depending on the final result you want and the water in your area. Don't back yourself into a wall.
