These APEC extruded carbon filter are the most widely used carbon block devices in the world and provide previously unattainable performance at the lowest price point. These filters simultaneously remove free chlorine and organic chemicals that contribute to taste and odor while providing the particulate filtration and dirt-holding capacity of an efficient 5-micron nominal sediment filter. These filters are optimized for applications where they perform the role of both a sediment and activated carbon filter. The extrusion process allows the production of a carbon block with more carbon, but a lower pressure drop. This enables the filter to deliver Extended life while removing sediment, chlorine, taste, odor and organic contaminants from water, aqueous solutions or suspensions. This filter is also widely used in filtering organic solvents. The workhorse filter is ideal for use in residential and commercial water purification systems, food service, pre and post-RO systems.

It works as well as the other brands I’ve used in the past and their filters last longer.

I use these filters as pre-filters for my 50 GPD RO system. I also use one as a post RO polishing/finishing filter. They are slightly larger diameter than the filters I used previously, and also heavier. Both parameters indicate more available filtering carbon. I use a micromho meter to test my finished water and just installed a new RO membrane to replace the one destroyed by chlorine allowed through by the previous brand of carbon block filters I was using. To date, the new membrane is working as it should. The previous brand of filters served me well for several years, but now are made in India and no longer are functionally acceptable. My grandson had the same issue and he also now uses the “Made in the USA” carbon block filters from APEC. We both are satisfied. There was a shipping issue, but I regularly was kept informed of the status by an APEK customer service representative.

We purchased our RO-90 system about 4(ish) years ago and we love it. We live in NYC, in a pre-war apartment building. Say what you like about NYC tap water, but personally, I can taste the chlorine, and I’m pretty sure they fluoridate it, too; and I am highly skeptical about the plumbing in my building…it’s probably close to 80 years old, like the building itself! With our APEC system, we get clean-tasting H2O at the pull of a lever. I bought a test kit and it consistently tests below .003 ppm. I recently had an issue with one of the carbon filters and had to request some troubleshooting assistance and a replacement filter; Yadira, jennifer and Daniel were all patient, knowledgeable and super-friendly during the entire transaction. I even got a follow-up call to make sure everything was resolved. Can’t say enough about the product and the company…and the people! Thanks to all for working during these trying times, and thanks to APEC for clean fresh water!

Their filters are more economical in the long run and don’t need to change them as often.

my APEC filtering system is so clean tasting and i am addicted to the fresh taste. my girlfriends always bugs me to dress up my water, which i do in gallons jugs in the freeze but mostly i tell them “i don’t need no stinking artificial tasting drinks, my APEC water is the tastiest drink there is.
