Thanks, Giz. Looking forward to what you find out.

and the worst part is you are letting chlorine to your membrain which will eventualy destroy them.

we had a big thread on chlorimeans and what is required to break them up and remove the chlorine and one carbon filter isn't going to do it. I run two carbon block filters and it barly works on mine and doesn't last that long (3 to 4 months) I am going to be putting two granular carbon filters befor the carbon blocks which should get me up to the 8 to 12 month mark. Carbon block are nice but they do not remove stuff as good as granular carbon.
