Performance Notes

Performance depends on incoming water quality, contaminant type, contact time, flow rate, carbon media volume, system size, pressure range, backwash configuration, media condition, and maintenance.
This system should not be described as removing every contaminant.
GAC filtration works by adsorption, not by softening or reverse osmosis.
Specific contaminant reduction performance should be confirmed through supplier documentation, water testing, and system sizing.
