How Cartridge Carbon Filters Work
Cartridge carbon filters work using a process called absorption to remove contaminants from your drinking water. As water passes through the filter, the large surface area of activated carbon attracts and traps contaminants within its pores - very similar to the way that iron filings are attracted to a magnet.
Carbon filters remove a wide variety of contaminants, including:
- Chlorine
- Organic chemicals and pesticides
- Trihalomethanes (THMs), a water-treatment by-product that occurs when chlorine reacts with natural organic matter like vegetation and dead leaves
- VOCs from gasoline, solvents, and industrial cleaners
Carbon filters also improve the quality of your water by reducing bad taste and foul odors. They can be added to reverse osmosis drinking systems or used as stand-alone point-of-use filtration for your La Crosse home.

Point Of Use Canister Carbon Filters
Canister carbon filters are considered POU (point-of-use) filters because they provide filtered water as close to the point of consumption as possible, as opposed to whole-home systems. Most drinking water cartridge filters are meant to remove chlorine taste and odor to provide great-tasting water.
The most economical cartridge is usually one that is a canister style that is located near or underneath the kitchen sink and provides filtered water to either the cold side of a faucet or a separate faucet. POU canister carbon filters have a limited capacity and should be replaced when they exceed the number of recommended gallons of usage or based on time restrictions. Various types of cartridges can filter out different types of impurities but are not nearly as powerful or comprehensive as a reverse osmosis system.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, activated charcoal and canister carbon filters can remove as much as 60-80 chemicals from water, reduce the presence of up to 30 additional chemicals, and provide moderate reductions for 22 other contaminants.
