2011 hot carbon filter cartridge{GW-7} - GW-7

The carbon filter cartridge shell exhibits a strictly controlled pore structure, so as to provide efficient sub-micron filtration, a proven defense against hard shelled parasites, as well as removing other less harmful, but equally unpleasant debris, such as rust and dirt. The bore of the filter contains granular activated carbon that aids in the reduction of chlorine and reduces organic chemicals along with improving the color, taste, and odor of the source water. The filter needs to be kept in a place where the temperature is between 40 – 100 F for proper filtration.

The Sterasyl ceramic filters contain pure silver. This silver is a material designed to significantly inhibit bacteriological mitosis grow through. The result is that bacterial growth is inhibited from occurring within this ceramic element (which is possible with the other ceramic filter elements). This silver content insures that filtered water contains levels well below those required by international standards. Because of the silver, Sterasyl ceramic filters do not require sterilization after cleaning.
