Activated carbon filters for better taste and odour
Activated carbon removes odour, bad taste, colour and many organic chemicals.
About the carbon filter
Activated carbon has an enormous internal surface area that adsorbs many dissolved contaminants as water passes through it. A whole-house carbon filter improves the smell, taste and colour of the water at every tap.
Carbon filtration works well after a sand or iron filter, which remove the particles that would otherwise clog the carbon bed.

Questions about the carbon filter
Does a carbon filter make water safe to drink?
A carbon filter improves taste and odour and removes many chemicals, but it does not remove dissolved salts or all microorganisms. For drinking water we recommend an RO + UV purifier.
