How It Works

The GAC20-BB Pentek T & O Cart functions as a key component in a water filtration system, housing a granular activated carbon (GAC) filter cartridge within a sturdy Big Blue casing. Water enters the cartridge, passing through the activated carbon media which adsorbs chlorine, organic compounds, and other contaminants that affect taste and odor.

This process improves water quality before it reaches taps or appliances, while the large cartridge size ensures a longer filtration cycle and reduces the frequency of replacements, making it an efficient choice for ongoing water treatment.

What to Expect

Once installed, you’ll notice an immediate improvement in water taste and clarity as chlorine and odors are significantly reduced. During the first few weeks, the filter will continue to work efficiently, maintaining consistent water quality throughout your home or workspace.

Over time, the cartridge will accumulate contaminants and require replacement, but the Big Blue size means fewer changes compared to smaller filters, offering reliable, long-lasting performance with straightforward maintenance.

What’s Inside

• Big Blue 20-inch Polypropylene Housing – Provides robust protection and accommodates larger cartridges for enhanced capacity
• Granular Activated Carbon Cartridge – Adsorbs chlorine, taste, odor, and organic chemicals for improved water quality
• Durable O-rings and Seals – Ensure leak-free operation and maintain system integrity under pressure

How to Use
