Pre-filter cartridge: This cartridge is typically the first stage of filtration in a multi-stage system. It captures large particles such as sediment, rust, dirt, and debris, preventing them from reaching the subsequent filtration stages. By removing these larger particles, the pre-filter cartridge helps extend the lifespan and efficiency of the subsequent filters in the system.
Post-filter cartridge: Positioned as the final stage of filtration, the post-filter cartridge ensures that any remaining impurities, tastes, or odors are effectively removed from the water. It provides a final polish to the water, enhancing its clarity, taste, and overall quality. Post-filter cartridges often utilize activated carbon or other specialized media to adsorb remaining contaminants and improve water quality.
Sediment filter cartridge: Specifically designed to target sediment and particulate matter suspended in the water, sediment filter cartridges help prevent clogging and damage to plumbing fixtures, appliances, and downstream filtration components. They effectively trap sediment, sand, silt, and other fine particles, ensuring cleaner water and maintaining the integrity of the entire filtration system.
