How It Works
The GAC10 Pentek filter cartridge uses granular activated carbon (GAC) to adsorb chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other chemicals that affect water quality. As water passes through the cartridge, impurities bind to the carbon surface, reducing unpleasant tastes and odors. This process protects downstream components and enhances the water’s suitability for daily use.
Installed within a compatible 9-3/4 inch filter housing, the cartridge acts as a vital stage in your water softener or filtration system, working seamlessly to maintain clean water output.

After installing the GAC10 Pentek cartridge, you will notice an immediate improvement in water taste and clarity. Within the first few days, the reduction of chlorine and odors becomes apparent, making your water more enjoyable for drinking and cooking.
Over the following weeks, the cartridge continues to deliver consistent filtration performance. With regular replacement intervals based on your water usage and quality, this cartridge supports long-term system reliability and helps prevent sediment buildup.
