Crystal Quest SMART + Calcium GAC Fluoride Reduction Cartridge

Combination of the Multistage Plus and Fluoride Removal filter cartridges. This cartridge also contains two, 1-micron filter pads, Eagle Redox Alloy® 6500 and 9500, and Coconut Shell GAC media.

• In stages 1 and 7, water flows through pre and post one - micron filter pad (1 micron equals 1/25,000th of an inch), which removes or reduces suspended particles such as silt, sediment, cyst (Giardia, Cryptosporidium), sand, rust, dirt, and other un-dissolved matter.
• In stage 2, water flows through a FLUORIDE REMOVAL media containing Fluoride Charcoal Granulated Activated Carbon (GAC). This media is specifically designed to have a high affinity for Fluoride, Lead and Arsenic. It removes and reduces metals through a mixture of adsorption and chemical reaction with the media; therefore, the elimination is not reliant on ion exchange. It has uniform particle size, is physically stable and can be used over a wide pH range. Capacity Avg. 1000 to 1500 Gallons). Fluoride reduction is 85% to undetectable
• In stage 4, water flows through ion exchange resins, reducing heavy metals such as lead, copper, aluminum, and water hardness.
• In stages 3 and 5, water flows through a bed of media made of a special high-purity alloy blend of two dissimilar metals - copper and zinc (ERA-6500, ERA-9500). ERA-6500 and ERA-9500 are major advancements in water treatment technology that works on the electro-chemical and spontaneous-oxidation-reduction (Eagle Redox Alloy®) principles. Chlorine is instantaneously and almost inexhaustibly oxidized.
• In stages 6, water flows through granulated activated carbon (GAC). GAC is universally recognized and widely used as an effective adsorbent for a wide variety of organic contaminants, such as chlorine, chemicals linked to cancer (THM's, benzene) pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, volatile organic compounds (VOC's), PCB's, MTBE's, PFAS and hundreds of other chemical contaminants that may be present in water causing bad taste and odors in your drinking water. All Crystal Quest® GAC is a mixed blend of coconut shell and catalytic GAC to address both chlorine, chloramines and these byproducts.
