Doulton has over 150 years of experience in water filtration, which is more than enough time to learn how to produce a top quality countertop filter model. Well, the folks at Doulton have produced one of the best value countertop water filters on the market in the form of the HCPS-UC, HCP System. The filtration system utilizes a ceramic filter (UltraCarb Ceramic Filter Candle) that is extremely effective in removing and reducing a large number of water pollutants. The ceramic filter removes particles from the water but leaves oxygen and mineral contents unchanged, which gives water its spring-like freshness and taste. This filter is ISO 9001 certified and meets NSF Standards 42 and 53, though it is not certified by NSF. Standard 42 certifies that the filter can remove chloramine, chlorine, taste and odor, and nominal particulate reduction, and Standard 53 that it can remove asbestos, chlordane, lead, mercury, MTBE, PCB, toxaphene, turbidity, cysts, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
