Carbon Block Filter 10" 5 Micron – Replacement for RO & Whole Home Filter Systems
Replacement Carbon Block Filter for Excalibur Rack Filter & Big Blue POE Systems
The Carbon Block Filter 10" (SMF CBC10B05) is a 5-micron carbon block replacement cartridge for Excalibur Rack Filter Systems and all standard Point of Entry (POE) Big Blue filter housings in the 10" x 4.5" size. It removes chlorine, chloramines, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), taste, and odour from your whole-home water supply.
What It Does
Carbon block filtration is one of the most effective methods for removing chemical contaminants from water. At 5 microns, this filter also captures fine sediment and particulates. It's commonly used as a standalone whole-home carbon filter or as part of a multi-stage rack filtration system to improve water quality at every tap in your home.
Who It's For
This filter is for homeowners using an Excalibur Rack Filter System or any standard Big Blue 10" x 4.5" POE filter housing. It's a great choice for properties on municipal water where chlorine or chloramines are a concern, or as a pre-filter stage before a UV or RO system.
