Manufactured from selected grades of bituminous coal, it is purpose-built for treating drinking water and excels at improving taste, odor, and overall water quality in whole-house and point-of-entry filters. As one of the most respected names in activated carbon, Calgon's FILTRASORB line is a trusted choice for residential, municipal-water, and groundwater treatment applications across the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTargeted Contaminant Reduction\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis acid-rinsed GAC is engineered to reduce taste- and odor-causing compounds, chlorine and disinfection by-products, and low-level volatile organic compounds, or VOCs. It was developed specifically with groundwater applications in mind, giving private-well and municipal-water households alike a reliable way to polish their water to a noticeably cleaner, fresher finish. The activated carbon works through adsorption, drawing target compounds out of the water and onto its vast internal surface area as the water passes steadily through the filter bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull 1 cubic foot box containing approximately 33.5 lbs of media\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGranular activated carbon produced from premium bituminous coal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces taste and odor compounds, chlorine by-products, and low-level VOCs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcid-rinsed and developed specifically for groundwater treatment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable particles withstand backwashing, air scouring, and hydraulic transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to meet AWWA B604-05, ANSI\/NSF Standard 61, and Food Chemicals Codex provisions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe irregular particle shape of FILTRASORB 200 makes it ideal for fixed-bed, continuous-flow filtration, where steady contact between the water and the carbon maximizes adsorption efficiency. Its rugged, abrasion-resistant structure resists attrition through repeated backwash and air-scour cycles, supporting a long and dependable service life with minimal loss of media. For best performance, install this carbon in a properly sized filter tank over a gravel underbed, then backwash on start-up to settle and classify the media and rinse away any fines. The reward is consistently clearer, better-tasting water throughout your home or facility, along with the assurance that comes from a media built to recognized industry standards. Periodically checking pressure drop across the filter and replacing the carbon when its adsorption capacity is exhausted keeps taste, odor, and chlorine reduction performing at their best, ensuring the water stays consistently fresh throughout the carbon's service life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nelsen Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45668800331829,"sku":"FILTRASORB 200-100BOX","price":291.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/4950\/2261\/files\/filtrasorb-200.jpg?v=1782683970","url":"https:\/\/watersoftenerplus.com\/es\/products\/calgon-carbon-1-cf-box","provider":"Water Softener Plus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
