General Electric Taste and Odor Carbon Filter FXHTC OEM Part

To ensure continuous efficiency, replace this carbon filter for water filtration every six months. It is tailored for integration with water softeners and is compatible with various GE brand products, including Hotpoint, General Electric, and Sears-Kenmore. This house-wide carbon filter effectively diminishes contaminants like odors, rust, sediment, and sand from water sourced via pumps. These impurities can impact the taste of drinking water and beverages such as coffee and tea, in addition to foods prepared using water. Regions with elevated sulfur or iron levels may notice water odor issues.

According to the manufacturer, it's advisable to replace the filter after treating 30,000 gallons of water or within a three-month period, depending on which occurs sooner. It is used in conjunction with in-line water filters servicing the entire household and is often paired with water softeners. Should you detect any changes in water flavor or odor before the three-month interval, an earlier replacement may be necessary. Degraded water quality might require more frequent filter updates, as signaled by changes in the taste and smell of water, food, and drinks.

This whole house carbon filter is available for individual purchase and is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part obtained directly from the maker. It is exclusively designed for use in water filters produced by General Electric.
