Open-Box Used as the first stage of defense on the system the stage 1 housing holds a 5-micron high-capacity polypropylene sediment filter. This filter removes dirt and other various larger sized particles from the water that can clog the following filters. The second stage of the WGB32BM houses a 5-micron CTO coconut shell carbon block filter. Block carbon is more effective than other forms of carbon in that it is finely ground up carbon packed into a solidified block. This means they have a higher density than other types of carbon filters and are therefore more effective in removing their targeted contaminants. The carbon block filter knocks out bad tastes and odors removes up to 95% of chlorine from the water and is highly effective on organic chemicals VOCs like pesticides herbicides and industrial chemicals. The third stage of the F3WGB32BM has an iron and manganese reducing filter – also great for the plethora of heavy metals found in well water sources.
