EZ-Turn Green Filter (1,000 Gallons) (#03582#03583, & #86162)

The EZ-Turn Green Filter allows you to simultaneously connect up to two customized filters of your choice for superior water quality and taste. This biodegradable Green Filter can be installed with little more than a push and click. This filter offers an affordable, environmentally sound alternative when compared to other filtration products. The outer housing is reusable and stays intact, with only the biodegradable filter media being changed as needed.

The internal filter cartridge that goes inside the Green Filter Systems (both EZ-Turn and EZ-Clip) include the following filter cartridge options:

• Carbon - made from coconut shell charcoal; removes Chlorine, Taste and Odor
• Carbon/phosphate - removes CTO and scaling; it is ideal for keeping water appliances in good condition
• Carbon/lead - removes CTO and lead; good for buildings that have older plumbing systems
• Carbon/lead/phosphate - removes CTO, lead, scaling; ideal for broad filtration and keeping water appliances in good condition
• Spun-bonded polypropylene - removes sediments and the improves the texture, taste and clarity of incoming water
• Galaxi Filter Cartridge (3,000 Gallons)
The Galaxi filter cartridge is the most popular cartridge for EZ Turn and In-Line Green Filter Systems, and for good reason. It lasts 3 times longer than other filter cartridges, and it filters against all of the main contaminants found in most water:  Sediment, CTO, Lead, and Scale. The scale is optional and needed mainly for water that comes from hot water tanks.  Click the link to view and purchase the Galaxi Filter Cartridge

The Galaxi Filter is a drop-in filter media for the NSF certified Oasis Green Filter components. Great for residential, food service, commercial and industrial applications. The unique design of the filter combines activated carbon with a cellulose-free synthetic fiber matrix. A single cartridge performs as both a sediment filter and a carbon block. This filter media improves chlorine, taste and odor reduction. It reduces both lead and cysts. The Galaxi Filter prevents carbon fines from being released out into the water stream.
