Abstract
A water-purifying filter element is provided at an upper part of filtering materials therein with a plurality of surface holes of predetermined depths. The surface holes provide additional water passages for water introduced into the filter element via the upper part of the filtering materials, so that the introduced water are guided toward different directions to reduce a flow resistance thereof. The surface holes also increase impurity-deposit areas in the filter element to extend a service life of the filter element and speed up purification of water.
