Katadyn 8013624 Carbon Refill Hey everyone, Aquaman here with FilterDoctor.com.
Today we’re looking at the Katadyn 8013624. This is a carbon refill two-pack designed
specifically for use with the carbon cartridge bottle adapter and the Combi filter pump.
Now, both of these units have a chamber filled with granular activated carbon, which obviously,
over time, becomes exhausted and needs to be replaced. This is the appropriate replacement.
Now, granular activated carbon removes a vast array of contaminants from water. In these
situations you may be drawing water from sources where you really don’t know much about the
water and so you want that extra protection; not only for the taste and odor so the water
doesn’t taste funky, but also to remove chemicals. Things that you’re not sure if
they’re there, but if they are you don’t want them in your body. Things like trihalomethanes,
or methyl tertiary butyl ether, or pesticides and herbicides; carbon removes all of those
kinds of things and many more. Now, each one of these packets gives a filter
life of approximately 105 gallons, so you need to change the carbon in either the carbon
cartridge bottle adapter or the Combi, at least once every approximately 100 gallons.
Again, this is the Katadyn 8013624, and I’m your host Aquaman with FilterDoctor.com.
Thanks for watching.
