Filter Blocks
CUSTOM SIZE LEAD, MERCURY, CHLORAMINE, CHLORINE TASTE & ORDER REDUCTION FILTER BLOCKS FOR OEM APPLICATIONS.
AquaGuidance filter blocks are the result of focused R&D in media design for the residential drinking water market to deliver the highest certified capacity combined for Lead, Mercury, & Chloramine reduction in a single 10” filter!*
AquaGuidance block filters are manufactured from a proprietary matrix of components, comprising of at least 2 types of activated carbon, combined with crystalline, and chemically active calcium carbonate. This CRYSTALATE media is structurally bound with polymers to produce a highly porous block filter form.
Our Proprietary Matrix of Media Blends + Our Block Making Process = Wide Range of Block Filters
- Low Pressure Drop
- Custom Sizing
- Gravity-Flow Filter Block Options!
BLOCK MEDIA FILTER PRODUCTS:
- Lead, Mecury and Other Heavy Metals Filter Blocks
- Chloramine Filter Blocks
- Pharmaceuticals and Harmful Chemicals Filter Blocks
As a manufacturer, AguaGuidance can deliver most any customized filter size ranging from standard 1” to 2.9” o.d. by 3” to 40” long and full-flow filters in sizes of 4.5” to 5” o.d. by 9” to 20” long. All sizes certified by IAPMO R&T to NSF/ANSI 42 for materials safety.
