Advanced Catalytic Coconut Granular Activated Carbon
The Green Carbon water filter uses the highest grade granular coconut shell based activated carbon to effectively remove a wide range of chemical and organic contaminants from water without the need for regeneration, backwash, or electricity. Designed specifically for whole house filtration, this system uses acid washed high purity granular activated carbon manufactured by steam activation from premium select coconut shell charcoal. When water comes into contact with the surface of the catalytic media, gas, vapor, liquid and dissolved solid contaminants get channeled and trapped in the micropores of the carbon by the process of adsorption. These compounds are subsequently diffused into the carbon matrix and are adsorbed or locked into the internal pore structure removing it from the water. The large surface area of our carbon makes it highly porous allowing it to treat between 600,000 to 1,000,000 gallons of water.
The Green Carbon water filter uses advance state-of-the-art catalytic carbon to effectively adsorb difficult chemicals like chloramines which cannot be effectively removed by regular activated carbon filters. This Point-of-Entry whole house filtration system will provide you and your family with an unlimited supply of clean, clear and refreshing water throughout every faucet in your home!
You can enjoy all these benefits:
- Chlorine/chloramine free water for softer skin and smoother hair after every shower
- Improved water taste and clarity without any bad chemical odors
- Luxurious spa quality water for your shower, bath, and hot tubs free from harsh, abrasive chemicals
- Improved whole house air quality free of lingering chemical vapors commonly released from water
- Better health and peace of mind knowing harmful VOCs, THMs have been removed from every faucet outlet in your entire home

Tips On Choosing A System:
To assure your highest satisfaction, please choose the right size (gpm) of the water conditioning system that at least matches your household peak demand flow rate. For example, if the most water you will use is to take a shower while doing your laundry and running the dishwasher simultaneously, then your peak demand will be (3+3+3=9) 9 gpm. This means our smallest Green Carbon water system, rated at 10 gpm, is sufficient for you.

Great filter!
"Bought 6 years ago, great at removing chlorine was municipal water. Kids eczema did so much better without the harmful chemicals in the water. Moved it to our new home on a well to protect us against potential VOCs/pesticides etc. as cheap insurance. All was well until someone broke and contaminated our well. After sanitizing the well, we decided to remove the carbon from the tank, sanitize and re-install with new carbon. We have residual chlorine in our well, but after hooking up the filter with the new granulated carbon, we have zero in the house, keeping or APEC water softener safe! Great purchase and easy to redo the media if needed."
50/50
"It seems like a good system overall but there were some problems with this purchase.The main tube feeding into the tank comes with a little black plug that is supposed to cover that tube while the media is poured in but it looked like my plug was missing so I just plugged the tube with a paper towel instead to get the media in.Started having pressure/flow problems after a couple weeks and eventually (after much head scratching and taking the system apart)I discovered that missing black plug had been floating around somehow in the by-pass valve and finally stuck perfectly in the interior of the outlet side of that valve.When you buy the pre-filter for the system the instructions show to put 15 wraps of pipe tape on the threads.If it needs that many wraps of tape then that part is badly engineered and doesn't fit properly.That should be redesigned.I've also found that Apec is lacking at promptly returning phone calls and e- mails.Maybe about half the time not at all."
Very Good Product
"I purchased both the carbon filter and the softener I am very happy with APEC and the filters are working well. Thanks"
What a difference!
"We’ve had the Green Carbon-15 Filter installed for about 3 months now and we love our water quality now that we don’t have that chlorine smell anymore. We’re on a small community water district that draws its water from a small lake and they’re not shy with the chlorine. Made a difference in our Hot Springs Spa also. Found the best price buying directly from APEC’s website and customer service is outstanding also. Very pleased."
Green carbon 15 whole house water filter
"I was happy and excited to buy it . My wife though i was crazy spending that much on a filter but we both Love the whole house filter. No more chlorine smell and hair feels really soft and silky. Skin is very clear! Installation was not easy best to get it done by a professional. Defintely worth the price and they will stand behind their warranty. I have a Ro water system from apec also and love the taste of water!"
Dr. Green Carbon 15
"I have used well water all my life and when my family moved to a new city water home I started to get red rashes on my skin which was unbearable. After speaking to a doctor and researching on internet I pinpointed the likely cause is due to the disinfectants used in city water. So I ordered the biggest system available from APEC and what a difference it made. After installing the system for a few days the red rashes started to go away and now after a month it's completely gone. I will recommend this system to everyone until the day i do bye bye."
Great System
"My hubby is a contractor so he was able to install the system himself with no problem. He has worked with home water filters before and says the quality of the Green-Carbon15 system is top notch. We were initially worried that the installation would reduce our water pressure but I haven’t really noticed a drop yet- knock on wood. The water quality on the hand is definitely much better and it is truly a joy to have cleaner water everywhere in the home. We are both very happy with the system. Thank you!"
Working well
"I’ve had the Green Carbon 15 for almost a year and it’s been great. The water is odor free and crystal clear and there have been no problems with the media getting clogged or causing lower water pressure. Overall a great system."
Chlorine smells gone!
"Where I live the water is so heavy with chlorine that our house smells like a swimming pool anytime someone takes a shower! Your Green Carbon system took good care of that and now the water smells like it should… it doesn’t! This system has worked so well that I’m considering purchasing your salt-free water softener system next and then I’d imagine my water would be the best on the block. Cheers."
