If you are not in a hard water / limescale area then save yourself money by getting a standard inline filter. We are proud to say that as part of our Pronteau by Abode offer we are able to give you our complete peace of mind for the lifetime of your Pronteau product. This filter will also remove impurities such as particulates and chlorine from your steaming hot water, ensuring a great tasting drink every time.

We'll send you a free flow rate regulator shut off valve to alllow you to adjust the flow rate of water through the filter into the tank.You will know the filter's worn out when you see film on your tea and coffee or start tasting chlorine - or it's past 12 months whichever is the sooner. Well you do need an anti scale filter to prevent scale build up in your boiler (like you would for a kettle). If the water does not constantly drip, this is water remaining in the spout releasing under gravity.

Abode is part of Norcros Group (Holdings) Limited, we therefore have had the benefit of joining forces with our sister company Triton Showers, to offer all our customers access to its nationwide engineer fleet. So, from offering an installation service to handling service and repairs, rest assured you are in safe hands. However if you are in a very hard water area and want to better protect your hot tap / water tank then consider this more powerful anti-scale filter. It will also connect to your existing Pronteau / Proboil connections. For example the PROBOIL2X and many others that use similar inline filter shapes ie that sit outside the boiler unit - between the water supply and the boiler. So, as far as that's concerned, any attempts to get you to keep using their filter would be fair enough.If you're in a particularly bad scale area the flow rate can make a big difference to how long the anti-scale element of your filter lasts. The slower the better. Please discuss this with the customer service team if that is of interest. We look forward to hearing from you.

Conclusion: The filter will NOT damage your boiling tap. But the manufacturer might use it as a reason to void your warranty. I received the proboil replacement filter the next day and fitted it following the easy instructions. It was easier than I expected and is performing well. I will be using you again in 6 months". Certified Independent Review by Gary D How Long Does it last For? and that If you change it for an alternative filter it may have a "detrimental effect" to the system so will invalidate your warranty.

But saying a different filter will damage the unit is arguably like saying that using a different lightbulb to the one supplied will damage the light. This genuine PROBOIL ® replacement filter is WRAS approved and has been exclusively designed and developed for Pronteau in the UK to ensure optimum protection of your PROBOIL system. Pronteau and other boiling tap companies might say they will only warrant the original filter type supplied and claim it is "formulated specifically for their product" Domestic hot water pressure is from a gravity fed system and is lower than the stated recommended minimum. It can be hard for us to be completely sure that this filter will stop scale for the entire 6 months - due to there being thousands of local water treatment plants in the UK, each with it's own a unique water chemistry - which can change regularly.(Even within the same area and postcode the water source can be different).
