Can it really filter any kind of tap water?
Can it really filter any kind of tap water?
Yes! Wisewell's Full Spectrum Filtration was designed to filter contaminants from any tap water. Wisewell uses the following four steps for purification:
Carbon filter: Removes chlorine, particles such as sediment, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), taste and odor.
Reverse Osmosis filter: Removes contaminants such as metal ions & aqueous salts including sodium, chloride, copper, chromium and lead by using pressure to filter and flush them out. Extremely effective at eliminating ‘forever chemicals’.
Mineral filter: Adds healthy minerals such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium and others found in many naturally sourced mineral waters.
UV lamp: Utilizes ultraviolet light to kill living organisms like viruses (including coronaviruses/parasites), bacteria and parasitic cysts.

Where does the water come from?
Where does the water come from?
Right from your faucet. You fill up the detachable tank, place it back in your Wisewell, and select what temperature water you’d like to drink.
How much water does the tank hold?
How much water does the tank hold?
In addition to a 21 cup reserve tank (the one you fill up), Wisewell holds 19 cups of already filtered water at all times inside the machine. That’s about half the amount you’d find in an old fashioned water cooler (which is not a sustainable source!). The average person consumes 8 cups of water daily, so you will likely not have to refill the tank more than once a day.
Does it have a warranty?
Does it have a warranty?
