WHOLE HOME CARBON FILTER

Log in to view price

Centaur catalytic carbon is a specially prepared carbon made by the Calgon Corporation, for the removal of hydrogen sulfide and iron from well water, or chloramines from municipal tap water. Makes a great “whole house” filter for general city water use, especially where chloramines are used, and works well with oxidizers like air and chlorine for sulfide or iron removal.

Carbon provides excellent dechlorination and aesthetic improvement and is the most frequently chosen medium to treat chlorinated city water. Removes chemicals and small amounts of hydrogen sulfide, and can be a good iron remover, but only if used behind an oxidizer like air or chlorine

  • What is GAC?
    Granular activated carbon is made from raw organic materials, such as coconut shells or
    coal, which are high in carbon. Heat is used to activate the surface area of the carbon. The activated carbon removes certain chemicals
    from the water passing through a GAC filter by trapping the chemical in the GAC.
    However, other chemicals, like iron and nitrate, are not attracted to the carbon and therefore are not effectively removed.
    It is important to know the level of contaminants and the volume of water used in order to determine the correct size and
    components of the filtration system. All treatment systems require proper installation, periodic monitoring, and maintenance.
    Eventually, the GAC loses its ability to trap and remove chemicals and it needs to be changed. The MPCA determines when
    MPCA-installed filters need to be changed. In some cases, the GAC can last several years depending on contaminant levels and water use.
