They are an ideal choice for a wide range of residential, food service, commercial and industrial applications. They also make excellent polishing filters or pre-filters in applications requiring fine filtration and high capacity.
NOTE: When greater chlorine taste & odor reduction is needed, use the Pentek CBC-5 carbon water filter.
WARNING: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
NOTE: Pentek EPM-5C water filter cartridges will contain a very small amount of carbon fines (very fine black powder) and a new cartridge after installation 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.
