Kitchen faucet Franke Atlas Clear Water 160.0705.404 for filtered water, stainless steel

Franke Atlas Clear Water 160.0705.404 is a stainless steel kitchen faucet engineered to supply filtered drinking water through a dedicated outlet while preserving the main tap for regular hot and cold water. The design separates purified-water flow from the primary faucet, providing a hygienic and practical solution for kitchens where a permanent connection to a water filter or water treatment system is required. Corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction supports everyday domestic use and easy maintenance.

Advantages

The tap offers a dedicated spout for filtered water, reducing cross-contamination risk between drinking water and general sink use. Stainless steel construction delivers corrosion resistance and a durable surface that tolerates daily cleaning and typical kitchen conditions. The design keeps installation and operation straightforward when integrated with a household filtration system, and the separate outlet maintains the functionality of the main mixer tap without modification.

Suitable for

• Homes with an under-sink or in-line water filter requiring a dedicated drinking-water outlet
• Kitchens where separation of drinking water and general tap use is preferred
• Renovation projects seeking a corrosion-resistant, easy-to-clean faucet material
• Households that want a discreet, permanently mounted filtered-water dispenser

When it may not be suitable

This faucet is designed specifically for providing filtered drinking water via a separate outlet and may not suit setups that require only a single spout for all water types. It is not a replacement for a full tap-and-filter combo integrated into one spout; rather, it provides an additional dedicated outlet. Compatibility with existing plumbing and filter connections should be verified before purchase.

Key specifications

• Material: stainless steel body and spout for corrosion resistance
• Function: dedicated filtered-water outlet alongside main tap operation
• Mounting: deck-mounted installation for kitchen sinks or worktops
• Finish: brushed stainless appearance suitable for modern kitchens
• Flow: designed for connection to a treated-water line (filtered drinking water)

How to use

Install the faucet on the sink or countertop using the deck-mount configuration and connect the dedicated filtered-water inlet to the output of your filtration system following local plumbing codes. Use the separate outlet to dispense purified drinking water; the main mixer tap remains available for regular hot and cold water tasks. Operate the filtered-water valve or lever (if present) as intended to control flow, and follow the filter manufacturer's maintenance schedule to ensure water quality.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility of the filtered-water connection with your existing filter or treatment system fittings and tubing
• Verify available deck space and hole diameter to ensure proper fit for a dedicated outlet
• Consider water pressure and flow requirements of your filter to ensure adequate dispensing performance
• Check that stainless steel finish matches other kitchen fixtures and is acceptable for your cleaning routine

Usage recommendations

Connect the faucet's filtered-water inlet to the filtration system using approved fittings and secure all connections to prevent leaks. Flush the filter and lines according to the filter manufacturer's instructions before first use. Clean the stainless steel surface with non-abrasive cleaners and a soft cloth to maintain appearance and avoid damage.
