Eiger PP & CTO 5μm Filter Set for 2-Stage Bench Top & Bottom 10″ x 2.5″

The 5 micron PP (Polypropylene) and CTO (Solid Activated Carbon) Filter Set is the ideal choice for two-stage bench-top or under-counter filtration systems and certain reverse osmosis models.

Polypropylene filter properties

Polypropylene filters, often used as sediment filters, are designed to remove fine particles, sediment and rust from water. They are made from a synthetic material called polypropylene, which has excellent filtering properties. Polypropylene filters are commonly used as pre-filters to protect and extend the life of other filtration systems. They are affordable and easy to replace, which makes them an essential component in many water filtration devices.

Activated carbon filter properties

Activated carbon filters are renowned for their ability to remove chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and certain chemical pollutants. These filters work by absorbing impurities onto the porous surface of activated carbon. Activated carbon filters are great at improving the taste and odor of water, making them an ideal choice for those concerned about chlorine or other chemical contaminants.
