How We Install a Carbon Filter for Water
1
We start by evaluating your home’s water quality to detect unwanted substances and identify the most suitable carbon filtration system. At the same time, we examine your plumbing setup to determine the ideal location for installation, ensuring effective filtration throughout your home. This helps us recommend the right unit based on your household’s water use and specific concerns.

Following manufacturer guidelines, the carbon filter media is carefully installed to guarantee top performance. The system is slowly filled with water to safely clear out any trapped air and prevent sudden pressure changes. Our team then inspects all fittings and makes adjustments to ensure smooth water flow through the new filtration setup.

The work area is prepared by turning off the main water supply and draining the pipes to prevent any spills during installation. We then secure the mounting bracket and position the carbon filter housing correctly. Next, we connect your water lines to the inlet and outlet ports of the filter unit.

We flush the system and run water through the filter, followed by a series of water quality tests to verify it’s functioning as it should. Lastly, we show you how to monitor pressure readings and explain what signs to watch for that might indicate future maintenance is required.

FAQs About Carbon Water Filters
What is a Carbon Water Filter?
A carbon water filter is designed to improve the quality of your home’s water by capturing unwanted substances as it passes through. Using activated carbon — a material packed with countless tiny pores — these filters can absorb impurities like chlorine, unpleasant odours, and harmful chemicals.
They’re especially useful for removing chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pesticides, and anything else that affects the taste and smell of your water. While they won’t strip out minerals or dissolved salts, they’re one of the most effective ways to refresh your household water supply.
How Does a Carbon Water Filter Work?
As water moves through a carbon filter, it flows over activated carbon media that attracts and traps contaminants through a natural process called adsorption. Thanks to the massive surface area within the carbon — created by millions of microscopic pores — harmful substances like chlorine and VOCs cling to the surface, leaving cleaner, clearer water to flow through your taps. The end result is fresher, better-tasting water for your family, with fewer chemicals and unwanted additives in every drop.
What Size Carbon Filter Do I Need?
When it comes to choosing the right size, it all depends on how much water your home uses at its busiest. Measured in gallons per minute (GPM), average homes typically need a system that handles between 7–10 GPM. Larger homes with multiple bathrooms or water-heavy fixtures might require a filter capable of 12–15 GPM or more to keep everything running smoothly.
To avoid guessing, The Comfort Group offers in-depth water testing to determine what’s in your water and recommend a system tailored to your home’s needs — no overbuying or underperforming units.
