It fits most refrigerator doors, uses a replaceable PF-AL filter, and is engineered for everyday kitchen use without changing total dissolved solids (TDS). The pitcher balances convenience—smooth flow rate and a manual life indicator—with a design that looks at home on a counter or in a fridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this pitcher make water alkaline?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PT-04C-A uses a specialized alkaline filter media that adds minerals to raise the pH of filtered tap water into the 8.0–9.5 range. This process modifies the water's acidity level without altering the total dissolved solids reading, so it’s focused on pH adjustment rather than TDS reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eContains mineral-based alkaline media that increases pH.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned to work with genuine PF-AL replacement filters for consistent results.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDoes not reduce TDS; intended for pH enhancement only.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does the filter last and how will I know to replace it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single PF-AL filter cartridge provides service for up to about 100 gallons under normal household conditions.
