Waterdrop WD-FC-04 Countertop Water Filter with Faucet

Waterdrop WD-FC-04: 8,000-Gallon 5-Stage Countertop System

The Waterdrop WD-FC-04 is a countertop filter system that connects to an existing kitchen faucet and routes water through a 5-stage filtration housing before delivering it through a dedicated stainless steel dispense faucet. The 8,000-gallon filter life is the longest in the countertop segment -- approximately 2 years of typical household drinking water use -- reducing the cartridge replacement frequency that limits most countertop systems.

Five Filtration Stages

Stage 1: 5-micron polypropylene sediment pre-filter. Stage 2: activated carbon block (chlorine, taste, odor). Stage 3: 0.5-micron carbon block (cysts, sediment). Stage 4: ion exchange resin (lead reduction). Stage 5: coconut shell post-carbon polish. The 0.5-micron Stage 3 block is the key differentiator -- finer than most countertop competitors that use 1-micron media.

Dedicated Stainless Faucet

The included stainless steel dispense faucet mounts through the countertop (no drilling to a sink hole) via the filter housing base unit. The base connects to the supply side of the kitchen faucet via a diverter valve. No tank is needed -- the system filters on demand.
