Ultra Rural System
Also known as Ultra Microbial Filtration System, Ultra Rural is a core filtration system designed to improve clarity and remove sediment and microorganisms.
A compact underbench filtration system designed for rural and tank water.
Reduces sediment, bacteria, and microorganisms commonly found in untreated water, improving clarity and safety at the point of use.
A practical foundation system for homes needing reliable core filtration.
Why This System
- Removes:
- Sediment
- Bacteria
- Improves clarity and safety
- Non-powered, simple system
- Ideal first stage for rural setups
What does this system remove?
- Sediment (dirt, rust, debris)
- Reduces bacteria and microorganisms (including Giardia & Cryptosporidium)
- Microplastics and fine particles
- Particulate contamination from tank or rural supply
What this system does not cover
- Does not remove nitrates
- Does not provide the same level of removal of dissolved contaminants as reverse osmosis
- Does not include mineral restoration
- Does not comprehensively reduce chemical contamination
Where this system fits
- Core filtration system for rural water (REMOVE stage)
- Designed for tank and untreated supply. As part of a broader water approach, it provides a high level of microbial protection without the need for chemicals or power.
- A foundation system that can be expanded
When should I consider a different system?
- If you want mineral balance → Alka Rural Total
- If you have nitrate concerns → Nitrate filter or PureRevive
- If you want more complete system → Alka Rural Total

Ultra
The Ultra Filter stands out as a unique filtration solution with its exceptional capacity to effectively remove challenging microorganisms and contaminants.
The Ultra Filter can be easily incorporated into existing Water Filters, Fountains, or Water Ionizers as a Pre-Filter, enhancing their filtration capabilities, it is recommended for the Ultra to have a pre-filter in order to not clog up too fast. (Pre-filter: approx. 5-20µ (micron) mesh size).
When it comes to eliminating harmful bacteria, including Giardia, Cryptosporidium, E. coli, and more, the Ultra Filter's 0.01µ Micron filter media is specifically designed for this purpose. It ensures the removal of various waterborne microorganisms and contaminants commonly found in tank water systems, which may include concentrations of E. coli, bacteria, and others.
Furthermore, the Ultra Filter proves to be an excellent choice for addressing the issue of Microplastics and Nanoplastics. With its 0.01µm filter mesh media, it effectively filters out these particles. Given the growing awareness of micro and nano-plastics present in water sources, including town supply, tank or rainwater, the Ultra Filter's capability to remove them is crucial. Ongoing research explores the potential long-term health consequences associated with these contaminants.
Whether you rely on city tap water, tank water, bore water, aquifers, reservoirs, creeks, or springs, the Ultra Filter remains relevant and valuable for ensuring cleaner and safer water supplies.
