What will a Carbon Filter Remove from Water?
Activated carbon filters, like Billi’s Premium Filters, can effectively remove chemicals from water including chlorine as well as iron, manganese and hydrogen sulphide. They can also remove objectionable tastes and odours.
What Contaminants Do Carbon Filters Remove?
Billi’s Fibron X® Carbon Filters remove the following contaminants from water:
- Sediment (ie particles in the water)
- Chemicals (chlorine and organic chemicals)
- Lead (0.2 Micron filter only)
They can also remove bacteria (more below). Plus, unlike conventional carbon filters Billi’s multistage filtration process uses minimal bonding agents to increase the surface area available for filtration and provide superior contaminant reduction.
Do Carbon Filters Remove Bacteria?
In addition to the above chemical contaminants our premium filters remove parasitic cysts giardia and cryptosporidium (0.2 Micron filter only).
