Carbon filters are a highly valued filtration media, used either as a standalone filter or as a post or pre-filter in other water filter systems such as reverse osmosis water purification systems. The Pure Pro CTO 2.5 x 10 Inch Carbon Block Water Filter Dual Pack contains two 2.5 x 10 inch Pure Pro carbon block filters, which are compatible with many other water filter brands and can be essentially used in any standard 10 inch filter housing.

The PurePro CTO carbon block cartridges contain coconut shell activated carbon. Coconut shell is one of the most highly efficient natural substances used for creating activated carbon. Coconut shell based activated carbon filters are ideal for water purification due to the high micro-porosity and hardness of carbon blocks. Coconut shell carbon filters are extremely adsorptive, thus, removing disinfection products and by-products, volatile organic chemicals, pesticides and herbicides and other organic materials that may affect the taste and appearance of tap water.

In-line water filters are usually used as a post-filter in reverse osmosis systems and in this capacity, they are often referred to as polishing filters. The advantage of in-line filters is that they can also be used with great success in several kitchen appliances such as dishwashers and washing machines. The Watts AICRO 10″ In-line Filter comes from one of the best performing brands of the water filter industry and meets the highest standards of water filtration.

As with other in-line water filters, the Watts AICRO In-line filter is commonly used in reverse osmosis water filter systems to improve taste and odour of tap water. However, the Watts in-line filter can be used as an external type, American-style fridge filter or as a stand-alone filter for under-sink water filters. Similarly, the AICRO in-line filter will perform well as a filter for boats, motor homes, water chillers, water dispensing machines, icemakers, caravans and much more.
