What you get
SKU:GAC-USC
Product Description
100% Granular Activated Carbon Cartridge - Compatible with many leading brands
This classic "ten inch" Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) filter cartridge is made from top quality coconut shell carbon.
Your Green Option
What sets it apart is the way you can reuse the plastic casing and simply replace the filtration media / powder indie it every 6 months
This only takes a few minutes and saves from unecessary plastic wastage - becuase the plastic casiing can last for years.
Simply let us know when you need a new cartridge casing and we'll send one out for free (when you reorder these refill packs so we also save the unecessary carbon cost of the extra delivery to you).
What You Get
One industry standard size "ten inch" cartridge (see exact size in the technical section below).
The cartridge comes ready-filled with high quality Granular Activated Carbon
Then every 6 months we'll send you a reminder to change carbon. You'll buy a bag of the special filtration media / powder and simply swop itb with the old media. (This only takes a couple of minutes and is really easy to do)
What the Filter Does
It will eliminate unwanted tastes and odors, including chlorine, dissolved and volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) found in many public drinking water supplies.
It will last 6 months and gives you fantastic value - especially considering the following more expensive brand name cartridges it can easily replace such as:
Brands this Top Quality Cartridge Can Replace
Our cartridge is interchangeable with the following brands/models:
Firstly: in the bad old days water filters would come in all shapes and sizes. The aim was to force customers to return to particular manufacturers.
However in recent years there has been a growing move to standardise the sizes of filter cartridges. Now about 80% of all cartridges are the "universal ten inch size".
(Note: Why they are called "ten inch" is a mystery as they are actually 9 and three quarter inches high!)
Secondly: the great majority of water filters are made from carbon.
And the great majority of carbon filters basically consist of burnt coconut shell.
It is a question of exactly how it is moulded into the required filter shape during the filter manufacturing process.
For example, the carbon might be cut into grains and placed inside a hard cartridge case (Granular Activated Carbon / AC).
Or they might be compressed into Carbon Block and typically be surrounded by a mesh - as is the case with our specially made "10 inch" types - see above right.
While Carbon Block is now generally seen as being a superior method of filtration over GAC, they basically do the same job.
The point is that as long as the size of the cartridge is correct, one type can be changed for the other.

This height includes the rubber seals at both ends. They have a 1 inch hole at either end, in the middle, to slot into the housing unit. Their diameter is approx 66mm. However they can replace cartridges with similar diameters. The main thing is to make sure that the height is correct and they have a 1 inch hole at either end, in the middle, to slot into the housing unit.
