Description

Carbon Water Faucet Filter

A carbon water faucet filter is a type of water filtration system that attaches directly to your faucet. These filters typically use activated carbon, which is highly porous and can absorb contaminants and impurities from water.

Here’s how they generally work:

1. Attachment: The filter unit attaches to your faucet easily without the need for tools. It usually consists of a housing that holds the filter cartridge.
2. Filtration: When you turn on the faucet, water flows through the filter cartridge. The activated carbon inside the cartridge traps impurities like chlorine, sediment, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other contaminants, removing them from the water.
3. Dispensing: Clean, filtered water comes out of the faucet for drinking, cooking, or other uses.
4. Maintenance: Over time, the activated carbon becomes saturated with impurities and needs to be replaced. Most manufacturers provide guidelines on how often to replace the filter cartridge, typically ranging from every 2 to 6 months, depending on usage and water quality.
