Default Special Carbon

The carbon needed is a catalytic carbon, when I first tried this carbon, I had to learn exactly to to use it. We now use it with good results. It out last tradtional GAC, far out lasts blocks. This carbon sets a up a reaction on its surface.

Traditional carbons do not have the ability to maintain this action; some produce a gas bubble on there surface rendering the C (contributing carbon) unreachable.

The reaction takes a while even with this “best” grade of carbon, so running to in a row is essential.

This is a coal based material, but it has an altered electron state. This process is not chemically achieved so it is VERY safe and the most effective means of chloramine reduction we now have
