What is CTO Carbon Block Filter?

The primary function of CTO carbon block filters is to remove chlorine from water, as well as its chemical taste and smell. Chlorine is used by municipal water supplies to kill bacteria in water and in water pipes. While still safe to consume, water that smells and tastes like chlorine is unsettling. Carbon filters not only improve the taste and smell of your water supply, but also the safety. With a carbon filter, you can be confident that you are not consuming harmful substances from your tap water, as chemicals like pesticides and herbicides are also significantly reduced.
