Franklin 5 Micron Filtration in a CBC Filter

The FWCB2005 carbon block cartridge offers a powerful blend of size and performance, delivering 5 micron filtration across a full 20" length. Constructed using premium coconut shell activated carbon, this cartridge ensures superior removal of chlorine, bad taste, and unpleasant odors from water sources of various qualities.

With its extended surface area, this model handles higher flow rates and capacities—up to 37,000 gallons at 2 gpm—making it ideal for households or commercial installations where demand is greater. Its optimized carbon structure provides high sediment retention and long service life with minimal fines.

Designed for use in reverse osmosis systems, point-of-entry filtration, and general water purification, the FWCB2005 supports applications in residential, commercial, and industrial environments alike. It's built with safe, durable materials and tested to NSF/ANSI 42 and 61 standards.

Choose Franklin Water Treatment Canada (formerly Waterite) for quality carbon filtration technology that meets today's water treatment expectations—no compromises.
