F.A.Q

• How Are these different from GAC (granulated activated charcoal)? A common mistake is to use a GAC filter in place of carbon BLOCK filter. They are a little easier to find from a local hardware store and priced at a slightly lower cost. There is however, a reason for this, they are inferior in terms of chlorine reduction (and dirt holding capacity/and zero carbon fines) and should never be used! The membrane element has very little to no chlorine tolerance (free chlorine tolerance membranes is <0.1PPM).
• How often do I need to change my Spectra Carbon Block? Every 6,000 Gal or 6 months, which ever one comes first.
• At Daily Watermakers we use a direct replacement filter for our watermakers, the reverse osmosis thin film membranes cannot tolerate any chlorine so we use only the best USA manufactured filters, you may choose to use our direct replacement filter sku# 11010
