Puretec GC20MP2 MaxiPlus Granular Carbon 20 Micron 4.5" x 20" Replacement Cartridge

Whole-house filtration for high-occupancy residential buildings requires large-format components to effectively manage heavy chemical loads over extended service cycles. This 20 inch MaxiPlus granular carbon cartridge is specified for the extraction of chlorine, bad taste, odor, and volatile chemicals in mains water supplies. It is suitable for installations where high-flow, great-tasting water is a requirement for every faucet in the property.

Performance capacity is rated for a maximum flow of 40 L/Min with a 20 micron post-filter rating to capture carbon fines and particulates. The model utilizes an elongated bed of granular activated carbon to provide maximum contact time for chemical absorption. It operates reliably in systems where high throughput is required, ensuring that drinking and bathing water remains fresh and clear throughout the property.

Internal design features a unique flow path where water enters at one end and passes through the entire length of the granular bed before exiting. An external expansion pad is integrated to minimize fluid channeling, ensuring the media is fully utilized for contaminant removal. The fused post-filtration layer is secured by a support basket to prevent untreated water bypass, providing a high-capacity barrier against chemicals.

Mechanical specifications feature a 4.5" x 20" MaxiPlus architectural footprint, manufactured from high-grade polystyrene for structural integrity. It operates in water temperatures up to 51.7°C and fits all standard high-flow elongated housings. This unit provides a high-capacity solution for total water clarification, providing reduction of chemicals, chlorine, taste, odour and sediment across large-scale domestic networks.
