Note: Active charcoal carbon filters are most effective at
removing chlorine, sediment, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), taste
and odor from water. They are not effective at removing minerals, salts,
and dissolved inorganic compounds, which are main sources of TDS (Total
Dissolved Solid) reading. That means you will not see a significant
drop on TDS readings by any carbon filters. Typical particle sizes that
can be removed by carbon filters range from 0.5 to 50 micrometres. The
efficiency of a carbon filter is also based upon the flow rate
regulation. When the water is allowed to flow through the filter at a
slower rate, the contaminants are exposed to the filter media for a
longer amount of time.
The package includes:
- 4 pieces of 1 Micron 10" x 4.5" Block Activated Carbon (CTO) Filter
