Data notes
Filtration technology not classified: sterra.sg describes "up to 5 stages" (sediment -> chlorine/odour/organic-compound removal -> bacteria/microplastics/heavy-metal removal -> taste/clarity -> optional alkaline stage) but never names the membrane/media technology (no "RO", "UF", or "membrane" wording found on the product page), unlike the Sterra X/Y pages which explicitly say "Nano Filter UF Membrane" — left null rather than guessed. Filter economics: the product page states filter lifespan is "6 months or 1,500 litres" and "replace every 6 months", but the only purchasable replacement SKU is a "1-Year Set" (2 filters) at S$229 — no standalone 6-month/single-cartridge price is published, so the filter entry above is recorded at the actual 1-year purchase price/cadence rather than an inferred half-price per 6 months. 2-year set: S$399; 3-year set: S$599 (same source). Alkaline-variant filter set is same price (S$229/yr) per source. Power: 230V/50Hz; ~0.9A cooling / 2,100W heating (sterra.sg product page). Available in Graphite Grey or Soft White; Neutral or Alkaline filter option. Certifications: page states "Safety mark number 260203-24" — this is a Singapore electrical/consumer product Safety Mark (IEC/product-safety compliance), not a water filtration performance certification with a published test scope, so it is not recorded under `certifications`. Installation: sterra.sg states "Free delivery and installation; electrical point within 1.5m, water point within 5m; drilling may be required" — no separate fee stated, recorded as $0, but drilling/relocation work beyond standard scope may not be included (not quantified on site). Current promotion noted, not used for price: complimentary "Stryv Beauty Bundle" (hairdryer, shaver, 2x toothbrushes) with purchase, per product page checked 2026-08-06.
