  2. Drink water filters for home use are usually made using either granular activated carbon (GAC) or powdered block carbon.

    Carbon is an extremely porous material that attracts and holds a wide range of harmful contaminants. Activated carbon is carbon which has a slight electro-positive charge added to it, making it even more attractive to chemicals and impurities. As the water passes over the positively charged carbon surface, the negative ions of the contaminants are drawn to the surface of the carbon granules.

    The most common carbon types used in water filtration are bituminous wood and coconut shell carbons.

    Filters made with carbon are cost effective, easy to maintain, and they can get all the bad stuff out of your water!

  3. The water is filtered if...

    In the container where it is put has a screen like stuff.

    It can also be w/ cotton to add filtering

    Filtered water is better than...
