* They don't come any better than this cartridge for chlorinated town water supplies. Particularly suitable when living in older residential areas where metal pipes may have been used.
* MATRIKX Pb1 filters meet NSF/ANSI Standard 53, Turbidity and Cyst Reduction, including Cryptosporidium, Giardia, Entamoeba and Toxoplasma.
MATRIKX®+Pb1 is a powerful, multifunctional filter cartridge for residential and commercial water purification systems.
Heavy Metals Reduction: MATRIKX®+Pb1 extruded activated carbon filter reduces soluble lead using an ion-exchange filter medium with high specificity for soluble lead. Particulate filtration is used to intercept insoluble lead-containing particles. Standard 2.5" O.D. × 9.75" filter will reduce lead, meeting the NFS test protocol for over 2,500 gallons when operating at a flow of 0.75 GPM. Chlorine removal capacity is over 6,000 gallons.
Chemical Adsorption: MATRIKX®+Pb1 filers offer high levels of chemical reduction in potable drinking water, including chlorine and other compounds that contribute to taste and odour.
Particulate, Cyst and Turbidity Reduction: MATRIKX®+Pb1 filters provide > 99.96% reduction of 3-4 micron particulates, > 99.96% reduction of 1-2 micron particulates, and are high performance sediment filters with extended life. Graded-density prefiltration combined with high dirt capacity, extruded activated carbon provide several times greater life than molded filters
Competitively priced compared to Granular Activated Carbon Filters.
For Use With Cold Water Only
