Carbon Filter For EAC211TS

Fresh air starts with clean water. The EdgeStar High Velocity Portable Air Cooler (model EAC421) and Edgestar Portable Air Cooler w/ Ionic Air Purifier (model EAC210TS) now offer carbon filter cartridge packs that can be easily dropped into your air cooler's water reservoir to filter water before it is converted into potentially impure air. Because the air is humidified and cooled from water that may contain harmful chemicals or bacteria it is important to use this filtration to better ensure the cleanest elements are being emitted daily in your home or office.How does the carbon filtration system work? Just as most home water treatment systems contain carbon that filters the water we drink, these carbon packs of granulated activated carbon (GAC) continually filter water as it flows through the tiny carbon pieces. These carbon granules boast a positive charge that serves to not only attract, but also trap and absorb the negatively-charged contaminant ions that could potentially be ingested.Why filter your water and air? The use of carbon filtration packs can be effective in the removal of many volatile organic chemicals (VOC), pesticides, chlorine, radon, and trihalomethane (THM) compounds that often contain cancer causing carcinogens. These small cartridge packs are an inexpensive and convenient way to promote overall health and wellness in any environment.These carbon filtration packs should be replaced every 2-3 months, or as needed.
