10 x 4.5 Inch Carbon Filters
Carbon is the right filter media when sediment isn't your primary concern — it's designed to reduce chlorine, chemical byproducts, and specific contaminants that affect the taste, odor, and safety of your water. This collection covers carbon block and GAC cartridges in the 10 x 4.5 inch Big Blue format, distinct from the broader 10 x 4.5" Replacement Filters collection which includes all media types.
Shop by contaminant target:
- Chlorine, taste & odor — Pentek GAC-BB, RFC-BB, EP-BB, and American Plumber WRC25HD and WGCHD handle standard municipal chlorine reduction
- Broader chemical reduction — Pentek CBC-BB, CFB-BB carbon block for VOCs, chlorine byproducts, and organic compounds
- Chloramine reduction — Pentek CRFC-BB catalytic carbon for municipalities using chloramine disinfection
- Lead reduction — USWF coconut carbon block with lead-specific media
- Advanced contaminants — 3M Aqua-Pure AP817 for compatible Aqua-Pure housing systems
Prices range from $20 to $82. All cartridges fit standard 10 x 4.5 inch Big Blue housings. Not sure which media is right for your water? Call 1-800-277-3458.
