Description
The Activated Carbon Block (CTO) Filter represents the next level in chemical water treatment. Unlike granular carbon, this media is compressed into a dense, solid block.
Features
-
Advanced Chemical Removal: Highly effective at extracting free chlorine, herbicides, and pesticides from municipal and treated water.
-
Heavy Metal Reduction: Specifically targets heavy metals, making water safer for drinking, cooking, and industrial manufacturing.
-
Compressed Block Design: Forces water to travel through a dense matrix, ensuring more thorough filtration than loose carbon granules.
-
Flavor & Odor Correction: Dramatically improves water quality by neutralizing chemical residues and metallic tastes.
-
Industrial Strength: Capable of high-volume filtration for whole-house or light industrial Point-of-Entry (POE) applications.
How It Works
-
The "CTO" Principle: CTO stands for Chlorine, Taste, and Odor.
The compressed block acts as both a physical filter (down to its micron rating) and a chemical sponge. -
The Result: Professional-grade purification that yields clear, safe, and delicious water, free from the standard pollutants found in modern water supplies.

Maintenance
Carbon block filters are disposable and cannot be washed.
-
Replacement Interval: Replace every 6 to 12 months or upon the return of chlorine taste/odor.
-
Pre-Filtration Tip: Always install a sediment pre-filter (PP or String Wound) before the CTO block. This prevents the block from clogging with dirt, allowing the carbon to focus entirely on chemical removal.

Compatibility
This filter is a high-performance stage for:
-
Drinking Water Systems: Essential for 2, 3, and 4-stage under-counter units.
-
Reverse Osmosis (RO): A critical pre-filter stage to protect RO membranes from chlorine degradation.
-
Whole-House POE: Used as the second or third stage in Big Blue systems to treat the entire home's water supply.
