- Pentek / Ametek CRFC-BB Chloramine Reduction Water Filter Cartridge:
- The Pentek CRFC-BB water filter is a radial flow chloramine reduction water filter cartridge. Radial flow carbon filters have a greater life than standard GAC water filters.
- Pentek CRFC-BB water filters are ideal for chloramine taste and odor reduction in point of entry (POE) water filter systems and other high flow rate applications.
- The CRFC-BB radial flow design helps reduce the presence of carbon fines in the filtered water.
- The bed of granular activated carbon (GAC) between the outer shell and the core is specifically designed to significantly reduce chloramine taste and odor.
- The unique radial flow design of the Pentek CRFC-BB filter offers the benefits of granular activated carbon (GAC) filtration, such as low pressure drop, while at the same time significantly reducing the release of carbon fines commonly associated with GAC style cartridges.
- The radial flow design significantly enlarges the pre and post filtration area of the cartridge for greater life versus standard upflow GAC cartridges.

- Pentek CRFC-BB Water Filter Replacement Information:
- The Pentek CRFC-BB water filter should be replaced when the flow rate of water through the filter slows or the taste and odor of the original water returns.
- Then Pentek CRFC-BB should be used in the #10 Big Blue Water Filter Housing.
NOTE: The granular activated carbon cartridges will contain a very small amount of carbon fines (very fine black powder). After installation, a new cartridge should be flushed with sufficient water to remove all traces of the fines from your water system before using the water. Each time you use your filtered water tap for drinking or cooking purposes it is recommended that you run (flush) the tap for at least 20 seconds prior to using water. This is particularly important if the water tap has not been used daily.
