Benefits and Features: CA Ware 10″ x 2-1/2″ Carbon Block Water Filter
- Class 1 chlorine, taste, and odor reduction
- Premium quality coconut shell activated carbon block
- Micron options: 1, 5, or 10 micron
- Listed capacity: 5,000 gallons at 1 ppm chlorine
- Listed flow rate: 1 gallon per minute (GPM)
- Standard 10-inch by 2.5-inch cartridge format
- Individually shrink-wrapped
- Fits all standard 10″ filter housings and under-sink systems
How to Choose the Right Micron Option
- 1 micron: best for finer particulate and tighter filtration, may reduce flow sooner if water has heavy sediment
- 5 microns: balanced option for most applications
- 10 microns: best when you want less pressure drop, and your water is not heavily loaded with fine sediment
If your water has visible grit or rust, a sediment filter stage before the carbon cartridge can help extend the cartridge’s life.
