Whole House Carbon Water Filter System: 5 Micron Coconut Shell Carbon Block Filter Cartridge with Corrosion and Scale Inhibitor Protection

The Premiere BG-20C is an industrial grade whole house water filter system that reduces chlorine, sediment, scale build-up, taste and odor, THMs (trihalomethanes), VOCs (volatile organic chemicals), MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether), and more. It is a complete whole house water filtration system that includes the heavy duty plastic housing with our BG-20CS whole house water filter with scale inhibitor cartridge. This whole house water filtering system is easily installed where water enters your home. It filters all incoming water before it goes into the individual supply lines that feed your laundry, bathrooms (including toilets), outside faucets, and your kitchen.

BG-20C Whole House Carbon Water Filter with Scale Inhibitor Features & Benefits:

• Premium high flow filter removes sediment, dirt, rust, and particulates as small as 5 micron
• Coconut shell carbon block has superior filtration capability to reduce chlorine, THMs (trihalomethanes), VOCs (volatile organic chemicals), MTBE (methane tertiary butyl ether), taste and odor, and more
• Siliphos ® scale control product prevents scale and stops corrosion. It works by forming a thin protective layer on the metal surface to inhibit the deposition of scale and corrosion
• Premiere Sales is the original and only company to offer coconut shell carbon block with added scale inhibitor product 
• Coconut shell carbon block technology is an eco-friendly and renewable resource for water purification
• A carbon block filter provides better contaminant removal than a granular activated carbon filter (GAC filter).
• Outstanding flow rate of 20 gallons per minute, and 80,000 gallon capacity
• Tested to NSF® standards – NSF International, one of the most respected independent certification organizations, rigorously tests products to comply with all standard requirements
• Heavy duty, food grade plastic water filter housing suitable for drinking water filters
• Screw-off lid with wrench for easy changing of the drop-in scale inhibitor cartridge
• Built in pressure release valve (PRV), to release pressure before changing filters
• This whole house water filter system has a 1″ internal port which allows for an outstanding flow rate of 40 gallons per minute
• Filter wrench, and mounting bracket with screws included

What is a coconut shell carbon block filter?

Coconut shell carbon filters adsorb harmful contaminants and improve the appearance and taste of drinking water. Coconut shell is microporous with minimal dust, and therefore is very efficient at organic chemical adsorption. Coconut shell carbon block filters have high hardness which makes them ideal for water purification.

Coconut shells are also an eco-friendly and renewable resource for water purification. Coconuts are harvested three times per year and their harvest has no negative impact on coconut trees. That is, a coconut tree will continue to grow and produce coconuts throughout the year even after its coconuts are harvested.

What is the difference between solid carbon block filters and a granular activated carbon filter (GAC filter)?

Solid carbon block filters have compressed carbon whereas a granular activated carbon filter (GAC filter) contains loose granules of carbon. A major advantage of carbon block filters is that they allow for water to be in contact with carbon for a longer period, which leads to a better contaminant removal. The BG-20CS is a solid carbon block filter.
