Data notes
Sterra's entry-level tank model. Water source recorded as manual_refill: product page describes a top-fill tank (cold tank 3.5L, hot tank 1.1L) rather than the direct mains-pipe connection used on Sterra X/8 — unlike those pages, the Sterra Y page does not state "connects directly to the water supply"; flagged here as an inference from the described tank/fill design since the page text was ambiguous on this point (worth re-checking at next verification pass). 4-stage filtration: PP sediment filter (stage 1) -> granular activated carbon (stage 2) -> ultrafiltration at 0.02 microns (stage 3) -> T33 post-carbon filter (stage 4) — classified `uf` on the strength of the explicit "ultra-filtration" wording for stage 3. Weight not published on the product page for the tabletop configuration — left null. A "Sterra Y Tank Standing" variant also exists (https://sterra.sg/products/sterraystanding) but was not researched/included; only the tabletop configuration is covered here. Filter pricing tiers (source: filter product page, checked 2026-08-06): Neutral pH — 6-month (1 set) S$139, 1-year (2 sets) S$268, 2-year (4 sets) S$536. Alkaline — 6-month S$189, 1-year (2 sets) S$368, 2-year (4 sets) S$736. Filter entry above uses the single-set/6-month neutral-pH list price. Power: AC 220-240V, 50/60Hz; consumption cold 112W / hot 500W (source: product page). Colours: Cool Metallic, Snow White, Space Black. Certifications: "Safety Mark Number 220371-11" is Singapore's electrical/consumer product Safety Mark, not a water-filtration certification with published scope — not recorded under `certifications`.
