GROHE Blue

COOLED AND SPLASHED DRINKING WATER DIRECTLY FROM YOUR KITCHEN FAUCET

According to scientific research, our tap water is just as good as bottled water. So why should you constantly buy new water, store it, collect and take away returnable bottles and not just use the water directly from your faucet? Thanks to Grohe Blue Home in the course of this you do not have to dispense with the bubbling effect. In the future, simply tap cooled (between 6 ° C and 10 ° C), bubbled and filtered drinking water out of your kitchen faucet. The installation is quick and easy and the equipment can be installed in your sink cabinet to save space. You also save space in the stock cabinet, in the fridge and you no longer have to store any returnable bottles.

In addition to saving space, you also help to protect the environment. To produce one liter of bottled water, seven liters of water and plenty of CO2 are consumed. By contrast, Grohe Blue water consumes 61% less CO2. Another advantage is the saving of plastic waste.

With the patented technology from BWT, the water is filtered in five stages and, depending on the filter types, additionally enriched with magnesium. The natural minerals are retained during the filtration process and you receive pure, soft water without pollutants such as chlorine and lead that affect the taste. The filtered water also has a positive effect on tea beverages and coffee: in the pure water, the aroma can develop better and makes your tea or coffee a special taste experience.

The operation of the Grohe Blue is simple and self-explanatory: a LED ring on the handle indicates the carbonate content of the water. Blue stands for still water, turquoise for medium water and green for sparkling water. In addition, the LED ring is used to indicate when it’s time to change the filter. This is indicated by flashing of the display light. The filter capacity is sufficient, depending on the hardness of the water, up to 12 months. For very hard water it is recommended to additionally install a water softener.

THE GROHE BLUE SYSTEM AT A GLANCE

THE VARIANTS OF THE GROHE BLUE COLLECTION

The Grohe Blue systems for drinking water are offered in three different system variants:

Duo variant: one faucet is used for the filtered and the unfiltered water (separate waterways). The water is controlled by a rotary handle on the left side for the filtered and optionally bubbled water and with a lever handle on the right side for the unfiltered water.

Mono version: is particularly suitable if you have already found your favorite kitchen faucet, but do not want to miss the comfort of filtered water. The Grohe Blue Mono faucet is installed in addition to your current faucet and is used only for the filtered water. With its U-shape, it has a simpler design and thus fits discreetly into your kitchen. The starter kit from Blue Mono also already contains all the necessary components.

Pure variant: if you prefer still water, you can decide for Grohe Blue Pure variant. This provides filtered water but has no bubbling function. Also, for tea and coffee drinkers, the mono version is an enrichment and offers the best flavor for your hot drinks. The Pure variant is available in all designs of the fitting and is available as a duo and mono variant.

Another distinction is between Blue Home for the private kitchen and Blue Professional for the office kitchen (of course you can also install the Professional version at home). This one is a bit bigger and you can also use larger filters and CO2 bottles.

For the fittings, included in the starter kit, there are selectable several design options. So, Grohe Blue will always fit the style of your kitchen and your personal taste. For example, the faucets are available with a C-, U- or L- (Blue Minta) spout, the K7 variant has an angular L-spout and is also available with an additional hand shower. The swiveling range of up to 180° makes operation particularly comfortable and the easy-to-use lever is forward-facing and has a knurled structure for better grip. Thus, a safe operation in everyday kitchen life is ensured, too. The two separate water ways for filtered and unfiltered water ensure that no impurities from the unfiltered water get into the drinking water.

In order to make your drinking pleasure also visually visible, you can reach for the noble glass carafes and the water glasses made of crystal glass.
