In Moroccan kitchens, the quality of your drinking water directly affects the taste of tea, coffee and everyday cooking. A chlorine smell, sediment and a metallic taste are among the most common complaints about tap water, and this is where the Tank Pro filter comes in.
The Tank Pro 6-function filter is a device for purifying non-salty mains water. It works with a single integrated cartridge that combines six functions, with no electricity and no pump. In this article we explain exactly what it does and what it does not do, when to change its cartridge, and how much maintenance costs.
Key takeaways
- One integrated cartridge with six functions: sediment, granular and compressed carbon, an anti-fungal stage, limescale reduction and taste polishing
- Improves the taste and smell of water by limiting chlorine, pesticides and metallic taste
- Runs on normal water pressure, with no electricity and no pump
- Does not remove salt: it is not a reverse osmosis device
- The cartridge is changed every 4 months; it costs 220 dirhams each, or 440 dirhams for a pack of two cartridges that covers 8 months
Why use a water filter in Moroccan kitchens
Water reaches Moroccan homes through a long network, tanks and pipes that can add sediment, a chlorine smell or a metallic taste. Using a water filter for Moroccan kitchens makes drinking and cooking water more pleasant and reduces the sand and rust that reach your glass.
Better-tasting water for the whole family
When the chlorine taste and smell disappear, family members drink more water and you may buy fewer bottles. The filter does not treat any illness, but it makes non-salty mains water taste better and look clearer in the glass.
How water quality affects cooking
Water is a basic ingredient in tea, coffee, soup and in boiling vegetables and rice. A chlorine smell or metallic taste carries over into drinks and food, and the difference is clearly noticeable in Moroccan mint tea and in coffee.
What is the Tank Pro filter?
The Tank Pro 6-function filter is a water purification device designed for the kitchen. It relies on a single integrated cartridge instead of six separate ones, which makes maintenance simpler and cartridge changes faster.
It is a practical choice for non-salty mains water when you want better taste and clearer water without electricity, and it generally suits a family of three to five people.
How the Tank Pro filter works
Inside the integrated cartridge, water passes through several layers that work together, each handling a specific function before the water comes out of the tap.
The six functions of the integrated cartridge
- Sediment: holds back sand, rust and suspended particles.
- Granular carbon: limits chlorine, pesticides and odors.
- Compressed carbon: finer filtration of impurities and metallic taste.
- Anti-fungal stage: limits the common bacteria found in mains water.
- Limescale reduction: reduces limescale deposits in the kettle and appliances.
- Taste polishing: a final touch that improves the taste of the water.
What the filter does not do
The Tank Pro 6-function filter contains neither a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane nor an ultraviolet lamp. It therefore does not remove salt or dissolved minerals, and we do not recommend it for salty water, well water or polluted water.
Benefits of using the Tank Pro filter
What users notice first after installation is better taste and smell, then less sediment in the water.
Improved water taste
Once chlorine and metallic taste are limited, the water tastes cleaner, which shows in coffee, tea, juices and soups.
Less sediment and limescale
The cartridge holds back sand and rust and reduces the limescale deposits that build up in the kettle and the teapot.
- Clearer water for drinking and cooking.
- Less white residue inside the kettle.
- A cleaner taste for hot drinks.
Household appliances less exposed to limescale
Limescale builds up over time in kettles and washing machines. The filter does not prevent it completely, but it reduces deposits from the water that passes through it.
Components of the Tank Pro filter
The integrated cartridge combines several components that work together to improve water quality.
Granular and compressed carbon
Carbon is the key component for improving taste and smell: it limits chlorine, pesticides and odors, and works in two forms at once, granular and compressed, for finer filtration.
A multifunction cartridge
Instead of a series of separate cartridges, a single cartridge combines the sediment, anti-fungal, limescale reduction and taste polishing functions, which makes maintenance easier and reduces the number of parts to replace.
Installation and mounting
The device needs neither electricity nor a pump and runs on normal water pressure. Installation is simple, but if you have no experience with water connections it is better to have a plumber do it.
Installation steps
- Choose a spot close to the kitchen’s cold water supply.
- Mount the device and connect it to the water supply following the manufacturer’s instructions supplied with it.
- Open the water and let it run for a few minutes, then check that there are no leaks.
How to maintain the Tank Pro filter
Maintenance here means changing the integrated cartridge on time: there are no multiple cartridges to replace on different schedules.
When to change the cartridge
The Tank Pro 6-function cartridge is changed every 4 months, because it works harder than the cartridges of other filters. If the taste or smell returns, or the water flow drops before the due date, change it earlier.
Steps to change the cartridge
- Turn off the water supply.
- Remove the old cartridge and install the new one.
- Open the water and let it run for a few minutes.
- Check that there are no leaks.
- Changing the integrated cartridge: every 4 months, at 220 dirhams per cartridge.
- Pack of two cartridges: covers 8 months, for 440 dirhams.
Maintenance cost
The Tank Pro 6-function cartridge currently costs 220 dirhams, while the two-cartridge pack costs 440 dirhams and covers 8 months. Store prices may change; you will always find them up to date on the product pages.
Is the Tank Pro filter right for your water?
Choosing a filter depends on the type of water above all else. The summary below shows when the Tank Pro is enough and when you need a reverse osmosis filter.
- Non-salty mains water with a chlorine taste or sediment: Tank Pro 6-function filter.
- Salty water, well water or an industrial area: reverse osmosis (RO) filter, such as the 7-stage filter with pump or the Tank Pro RO + UV.
