We use high quality water filtration media including Coconut Shell Based Activated Carbon and KDF media. If you are on a city water or a private well we have a soulution to condition and treat or condition your water.

Granular Coconut Shell Based Activated Carbon

Our Coconut Shell GAC is a granular activated carbon manufactured by steam activation from select coconut shell charcoal. Its enhanced microporosity makes it particularly well suited for the removal of low molecular weight organic compounds and their chlorinated by-products such as chloroform and other trihalomethanes (THM’s). It is also ideally suited for the removal of oxidizing agents such as chlorine and ozone from process water. An important feature of this material is its superior mechanical  hardness  and  the  extensive  dedusting  during  its  manufacturing that ensures an exceptionally clean activated carbon product.
