Strong water flow will reduce the contact time and interfere with the adhesion process of the organic molecules to the carbon. Strong water flow may also cause the granules to grind against each other, releasing carbon material to water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor best results:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove any fines, by rinsing carbon under tap water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDue to air trapped in the pores carbon will float and therefore it is recommended to soak the carbon in RO water until all of the air has been released.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlace the carbon in a location with an active flow of 1000-1500 lph (250-400 gph) per 50 gr carbon.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplace carbon every 1.5 – 2 months.
