CARBON (CHARCOAL) FOR AIR PURIFICATION IS “ACTIVATED” WHERE ATMOSPHERE, TIME AND TEMPERATURE ARE USED TO CONTROL OXIDATION-ACTIVATION. ACTIVATION GREATLY INCREASES THE INTERNAL SURFACE AREA OF THE CARBON (CHARCOAL) MAKING IT MUCH MORE EFFICIENT AT ADSORBING MATERIALS THAT ARE IN THE GASEOUS OR VAPORIZED STATE, MATERIALS THAT CANNOT BE REMOVED BY REGULAR PARTICULATE FILTERS.
WHEN YOU BUY CARBON (CHARCOAL) FILTERS, ALWAYS BE AWARE OF HOW MUCH CARBON (CHARCOAL) PER SQUARE FOOT OR SQUARE METER IS IN THE FILTER. A CARBON (CHARCOAL) FILTER MAY HAVE A LOWER PRICE BUT THAT WILL BE BECAUSE IT HAS LESS CARBON (CHARCOAL) IN THE FILTER.
GOOD FILTER COMPANY USES ONLY VIRGIN COCONUT CARBON (CHARCOAL), NEVER RE-CONSTITUTED OR USED CARBON (CHARCOAL).
ACTIVATED CARBON (CHARCOAL) HAS PROVEN TO BE THE MOST EFFECTIVE MEANS OF ODOR AND POLLUTION CONTROL AVAILABLE BECAUSE OF IT’S ABILITY FOR CONTROL OF A BROAD SPECTRUM OF CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS.
PLEATED FILTERS HAVE APPROXIMATELY 2 1/2 TIMES THE SURFACE AREA OF A FLAT PANEL FILTER.
