These cleanable filter elements are designed to remove suspended solids, pathogenic bacteria, and chemical contaminants. In addition they will improve taste and reduce trace contaminants. These filter elements have been tested in accordance with NSF protocols for cyst, turbidity, particulates, and chlorine reduction (Class 1). The cartridges are based on a Sterasyl ceramic pre-filter shell. Inside the ceramic shell is a carbon block post-filter which forms a tightly packed matrix. The candle is fitted with a threaded plastic cap on one end; the cartridge is open on both ends and fits in standard 10" filter housings.
