Do these filters have a carbon media....meaning, do they have a carbon center?

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.

No, I dont believe it has a carbon fiber filter - I fill it from a brita. Its a very good basic coffee maker - I have had no problems so far. In fact I recently bought a second identical unit for my office. The "beeps" to signal brewing is finished are rather loud but that doesn't bother me at all.

Yes, with the carbon filter the chloride taste is minimized, the ceramic filter removed down to 2 microns. I have several friend who have also purchased these for this purpose.

I haven't change my carbon filters as of yet and the other filter the manufacture say's its good for a year. Which that to me remain to be seen.I say that only because I have only had my 2 unit up and run for 2 months on auto any have only shut them off to check the filters and they all look just fine.My units came package with 3 extra carbon filters.

I don't know as it makes any difference. I use mine of a IDYLIS machine and the primary filters on it has velcro material that sticks to the carbon pre-filter. I am satisfied what the carbon filter does. Elmer

Yes. I just checked on the LG site, and they are just the ones. I have the 32cf. model and I use these filters regularly. Getting ready to order for the 3rd time. These filters are the BEST price, though the first time I bought them here, they were $55. for the pair. Still better than the LG factory supplier. We go through a lot of water, pets and all, so I keep a few on hand.

It doesn't say on the Amazon description but mines came with 4 extra carbon filters.

Yes, Marineland's carbon is cleaner than most, requiring less rinsing to get rid of the carbon dust before you put it in the filter. I strongly recommend using a filter bag to contain the carbon before putting it in a filter.

The carbon particles are just residue from the filter, it took me three or more rinses before I felt it was clear enough to drink the water. The Stage-5 Carbon filter is a GAC (granular activated carbon) filter so it contains loose carbon media. When water runs through a new carbon filter, it is common for the filter to release a small amount of loose black carbon fines. Just continue to rinse until it is clear enough to make you fill comfortable. It's no big deal. Just check to make sure that the filter cartridge isn't cracked damaged from shipping.

yes and no. I rinse clean everything except the bio media which I rinse in tank water ONLY. The pads are all reusable so just rinse them clean and reuse. The carbon is also reusable until it starts to either clog or change color.

There is not a lot of carbon in the filter cartridge but it is very fine. I rinsed mine only because I always have done it, buy it is better to rinse away the carbon dust. In other words, it takes seconds, yes.

The carbon filter is a thin spongy filter and the HEPA filter is larger made of a paper type material and pleated. I vacuum both filters to clean them and actually rinse the carbon filter with water and hang to dry being careful to wait until it is fully dry before using

I'm sure if you ask Hamilton Beach their response would be no. These filters are easy to cut with scissors, so if you need to fit them into a smaller form, it's possible. Ideally these are used in smoke and fume extractors. I'm not sure what your unit requires, but if you only need a carbon filter, it's worth a try.

Yes, these are carbon filters. Most VOCs should also be eliminated by the distill process.

Nope!It is a standard off-the-shelf cartridge, available at home depot or wal-mart.I have already replaced the carbons once.Hope this helps.

Yes,there is a carbon type organic filter and replaceable particulate filters in the retainers . These small white particulate pads can be bought in bulk and replaced as needed ,usually two are in each retainer when you buy it .

That is carbon from the filter. It is not abnormal for it to happen, it just usually doesn't.
