In order to keep the carbon “Active”, Classic Carbon has not been pre-washed, therefore, It is necessary to thoroughly rinse with cold water. Following this rinsing process we recommend placing the carbon in a filter media bag. Place in high flow area of filter to maximize water flow through the media. For best results, replace carbon at least once per month. Classic Activated Carbon is ideal for use in all types of power filters, wet dry filters, canister or modular filters.
