Hmm. The TPP is a builder. In other words, its job is to dissolve calcium and magnesium minerals. So the other option you have is an acid of some sort. You could try vinegar, but it’s probably not strong enough. If the filter has no metallic components I’d try Hydrochloric Acid – 1 part in 10 would be plenty strong enough. If it does have metallic components however, get some citric acid from the cooking aisle in the supermarket and soak it in a solution of that
