How It Works

This inline carbon filter cartridge uses activated carbon to adsorb chlorine, chloramines, and other chemical impurities from your water supply. As water flows through the filter’s carbon media, contaminants are trapped, resulting in cleaner, fresher-tasting water. The 3/8" quick connect fittings provide a secure, leak-resistant connection, making it ideal for integration within water softener and filtration systems.

The filter operates at typical household water pressures and requires no electricity or complex maintenance, making it a simple yet effective component in your water treatment setup.

What to Expect

Once installed, you will immediately notice an improvement in water taste and odor, particularly a reduction in chlorine-related flavors. During the first few days, the filter media will settle in, providing optimal filtration efficiency. Over the following weeks, it continues to protect your system components by preventing sediment buildup and chemical damage.

Regular replacement ensures sustained performance; typically, this cartridge provides reliable filtration for several months depending on water quality and usage, after which swapping it out is quick and straightforward.
