Aquacera 5 Inch CeraMetix Gravity Replacement Filter filter elements utilize our class-leading CeraSyl DE (diatomaceous earth) ceramic microporous outer shell combined with our AquaMetix granular core technology. AquaMetix is made from the highest quality NSF component certified (ANSI 61) coconut shell based activated carbon and other superior adsorbent materials including B2 (ANSI 61). The ceramic shell and our AquaMetix granular combines mechanical filtration and physical absorption processes to reduce a wide variety of drinking water contaminants of both aesthetic and health concerns. The pore structure of the ceramic enables sufficient contact time for AquaMetix to be ideally suited to improving taste and odor as well as reducing chlorine, chloramine, volatile organic compounds, MTBE, lead, mercury, asbestos, arsenic, and fluoride. The cleanable ceramic shell is designed to remove suspended solids. The CeraMetix elements have been tested by NSF protocols for cyst, turbidity, particulates, lead, chloramines, and chlorine reduction.
