Is this a KDF or catalytic carbon filter? Also, what is the casing material?

Plastic casing.. Appears to be kdf type material.. Water that has run through the filter has been advised not to be used for aquariums.. Casing is reusable in that the filter material can be replaced (that's my kind of sustainable).. Have not done a refill yet.. Happy so far..Have had mine a year.

Your question is about a filter or a hose? The question is posted as a hose.

4: Sediment, catalytic carbon, membrane, coconut shell carbon. Change the filters annually; and change the membrane every 3-5 years depending on your water's hardness and usage.

This particular technology is proprietary and the manufacturer doesn't give a number. In marine applications, a 10μ filter is usual for fuel-water separation.

It comes with the micron filter. Not sure about the carbon... It has been a while since I purchased mine and I only used it for the micro-filtration capabilities.

This filter fits perfect in to the 20250 model and there is "NO" smell! I have bought several of these filters and their catalyst for mold injection is used up in the process leaving no catalyst to be suspect as a by product of manufacture! Hope this helps! The pre-filter is made of activated charcoal is used to remove dissolved gases that are harmful to the human body that can stress the cardio-pulmonary system and cause diseases. You can double layer if desired!

KDavies, the filter looks to be some sort of nylon weave, the frame for the filter is a strong, dense, high quality plastic. I have seen people get very upset by this, but my familiarity with plastics used in the medical and scientific fields gives me reason to feel it is not a problem. I have been using mine for years with no apparent degradation of the plastics involved, no change to the surface from a hard, glossy plastic.

I measured the ribbon in the box. The ribbon on the filter is 6" W x 42" L. The ribbon on the filter overlaps the plastic at the at edge. The plastic at the edge wraps around about a 1/4 inch. I cut the filter to go right to the edge, the filter is 6inches wide Glad you asked again. Looks like it is time to change the carbon filter: full of dust. Circumference of the filter is 36", so I have a 6 " overlap. I am guessing I cut the ribbon to width after installation. I am also guessing the ribbon is sized to fit a number of circular filter sizes.

Yes, KDF identifies a filtration media within the filter. You can look up KDF on the web for further information.

It's aluminium. The carbon fiber is more expensive. I love mine (aluminium).

I have no idea but the filter is made of metal and that is the majority of the filter

It is a universal Honeywell carbon pre-filter. Meaning - It's a large roll that can be cut and fitted for the smaller ones. If you own a Honeywell filtration system, this will work for you.

This carbon is extruded (cylindrical). Average piece is 3/4 inch long by 1/8 inch in diameter. I use this carbon in my Ocean Clear chemical canister for fresh water tropical fish. I have used this filter system for over 20 years and this is the best carbon I have found for the money. It has a large surface area and keeps the water flowing for a long time. I used to use the standard carbon and it would plug with debris quicker causing the need to change the carbon much more often. This is the best canister carbon there is for the money bar none!

The filter I received is white on both sides. It's entirely polyester, and it fit right into my Kenmore Progressive canister vacuum.

I'm not sure. There is a thin, dark sheet inside the filters--but I'm not sure what it is made of. Hope this helps. The interior sheet is about an inch smaller than the filter and appears to have a rough texture.

The carbon filters that came with my purifiers and the replacement ones I've bought either in a store or from Amazon (couldn't find them in stores anymore!) have been black with specks of white baking soda. The baking soda is for odor absorption and the color should not affect the performance of the actual filter. One unit I have had reviews of smelling like wet diapers; I did notice this when it was new, but less so since replacing the filter. Interesting comment about the newer filters not having baking soda and not neutralizing cooking odors; so far this has not been a problem with my garlic and ginger stir fries, neutralizes the air well.

Yes, the filter is made of 100% 316 grade stainless steel. We don't use any bonding material in the welds, so there's only stainless steel there.

Yes it is but not like your carbon experience fears. The ONLY issue is the dust it accumulates and the hand grenade care you must take (take it outside) to keep the dust from "shedding" when you change it. I like the filtering it does and it's obvious!
