Customer Question:

I have it installed now, and aside from some initial charcoal in the first few litres, it seems to have stopped. I’m assuming it just needs to be flushed before initial use.

Manufacturer Answer:

Yes. That can happen. The max flow rate through it is only 60 gph. There can be some granules come out of the unit in the package on occasion.


Customer Question:

I ordered the EVOFC12 12 inch - FC12 Dechlorinator Carbon In Line Filter and when I opened it there was a bit of the inside of the filter loose in the box. And when I picked it up more of the black sand/gravely stuff fell out of it. Is that supposed to happen?

Manufacturer Answer:

It is ok/normal.
