NCP-10, Pentek Pleated Carbon Cart, 155367-43

High-Performance Pentek Pleated Carbon Cartridge for Cleaner, Better-Tasting Water

The NCP-10 Pentek Pleated Carbon Cartridge is engineered to efficiently reduce chlorine taste and odor, making your water safer and more pleasant for everyday use. Unlike standard filters, this carbon cartridge uses a pleated design to maximize surface area and improve filtration capacity. Ideal for water treatment systems requiring reliable filter cartridges, the NCP-10 delivers consistent performance that protects your plumbing and enhances water quality.

Key Benefits

• Improves water taste and odor by effectively reducing chlorine and organic contaminants
• Extends the life of your water treatment system by protecting against sediment and chemical buildup
• High surface area pleated carbon media enhances filtration efficiency and flow rates
• Durable construction designed to withstand regular water pressure without compromising performance
• Easy to install and replace, ensuring hassle-free maintenance for your water filtration setup

How It Works

The NCP-10 filter cartridge integrates seamlessly into your existing water softener or filtration system. Water passes through the pleated activated carbon media, which adsorbs chlorine, chloramines, and other dissolved chemicals responsible for unpleasant tastes and odors. The pleated design increases the surface area, allowing more contact between water and carbon, resulting in superior filtration.

As water flows through the cartridge, sediment and fine particles are also trapped, preventing clogging and protecting downstream components. This dual-action filtration ensures cleaner, fresher water throughout your home or facility.

What to Expect

Right after installation, you’ll notice an immediate improvement in water taste and clarity. The reduction of chlorine and odors enhances drinking water and improves the quality of water used for cooking and bathing. Over the first few weeks, the cartridge effectively maintains high flow rates while continuing to remove contaminants.

With proper maintenance, the NCP-10 offers reliable performance over its lifespan. Regular replacement ensures your water treatment system remains efficient and your water consistently clean, minimizing the risk of system damage due to sediment accumulation.

What’s Inside

• Pleated Activated Carbon Media – Maximizes filtration surface area for enhanced contaminant removal and longer filter life.
• Durable End Caps – Provide a secure seal and prevent bypass, ensuring all water is properly filtered.
• Polypropylene Core – Supports media structure while resisting corrosion and degradation from water exposure.
• Robust Outer Mesh – Protects the pleated carbon from damage and sediment clogging, maintaining consistent flow.

How to Use

1. Turn off the water supply to your filtration system before beginning installation.
2. Release pressure by opening a downstream faucet or valve.
