It delivers over 3,000 gallons of clean water at 1 gpm while maintaining a low 0.4 psi pressure drop, ensuring strong flow. Its advanced porous carbon block and protective outer wrap extend filter life by preventing premature clogging. Compatible with all standard 10" x 2.5" housings and NSF/ANSI 42 certified, it’s the reliable choice for cleaner, better-tasting water in homes and RVs. ## Description The Pentair Pentek EPM-10 is an economical carbon block cartridge built for reliable chlorine taste, odor, and sediment reduction in residential and RV water systems. Using bonded Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) technology with a 10 micron nominal rating, this filter delivers over 3,000 gallons of capacity at 1 gpm while maintaining a low 0.4 psi pressure drop. What sets the EPM Series apart is its high porosity design. Standard carbon blocks often plug with sediment before their adsorption capability is fully used. The EPM-10 solves this with a porous carbon structure combined with a protective outer wrap that intercepts sediment before it reaches the carbon media, extending effective filter life. This cartridge fits all standard and slim line 10-inch filter housings, making it a direct drop-in replacement. Constructed with polypropylene endcaps, polyethylene netting, and Buna-N gaskets, it handles water temperatures from 40 to 180 degrees F. NSF/ANSI Standard 42 certified for material requirements. Replace every 3 months or when flow rate or water quality declines. ## Features - LONGER FILTER LIFE BY DESIGN - High porosity carbon block resists premature plugging, so the full adsorption capacity is used before replacement is needed; protective outer wrap traps sediment that typically clogs carbon block cartridges - CLEANER, BETTER-TASTING WATER - Bonded Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) block reduces chlorine taste and odor for over 3,000 gallons at 1 gpm, while providing 10 micron nominal sediment filtration - MINIMAL PRESSURE DROP - Only 0.4 psi initial pressure drop at 1.0 gpm maintains strong water flow through your system without straining pumps or reducing output at the faucet - UNIVERSAL 10-INCH FIT - Replaces any standard 10" x 2.5" carbon block cartridge; compatible with all standard and slim line filter housings; dimensions: 2.89" x 9.840" - NSF/ANSI 42 CERTIFIED - Tested and certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for material requirements; rated for water temperatures from 40 to 180 degrees F; replace every 3 months or 3,000 gallons ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Asin | B0031OGM2W | | Best Sellers Rank | #42,170 in Tools & Home Improvement (See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement) #271 in Replacement Under-Sink Water Filters | | Brand Name | Pentek | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (721) 4.6 out of 5 stars | | External Testing Certification | NSF, ANSI | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00051678377437, 00051678634431 | | Included Components | filter | | Item Dimensions D X W X H | 3"D x 10"W x 3"H | | Item Type Name | EPM-10 Big Blue Carbon Water Filter, 10-Inch, Under-the-Counter Modified Epsilon Carbon Block Filter Cartridge with Bonded Powered Activated Carbon (PAC) Filter, 2.5" x 10", 10 Micron | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Manufacturer | Pentair Industries | | Manufacturer Part Number | 155634-43 | | Material Type | Extruded Carbon Block | | Model Number | 155634-43 | | Number Of Items | 1 | | Product Benefits | Reduces Chlorine | | Set Name | EPM Series | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Upc | 700999877965 115971035743 807032972806 163121150990 163120790647 051678634431 132017513072 808112760719 851905131647 051678377437 809390003482 806294984534 182682388055 798527135120 851905125196 | ## Product Details - **External Testing Certification:** NSF, ANSI - **Item Weight:** 16 ounces - **Material:** Extruded Carbon Block - **Product Benefits:** Reduces Chlorine - **Product Dimensions:** 3"D x 10"W x 3"H ## Images ![Pentair Pentek EPM-10 Carbon Block Water Filter, 10" x 2.5", Chlorine Taste & Odor Reduction, 10 Micron Sediment Filtration, 3,000 Gallon Capacity - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71q8soob3eS.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pentair Pentek EPM-10 Carbon Water Filter, 10-Inch, Under Sink Modified Epsilon Carbon Block Replacement Cartridge with Bonded Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) Filter, 10" x 2.5", 10 Micron - Pentair Pentek P5 Sediment Water Filter, 10-Inch, Under Sink Spun-Bonded Polypropylene Replacement Cartridge, 10" x 2.5", 5 Micron - Pentair Pentek CBC-10 Carbon Water Filter, 10-Inch, Under Sink Carbon Block Replacement Cartridge with Bonded Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) Filter, 10" x 2.5", 0.5 Micron --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/11201156-pentair-pentek-epm-10-carbon-block-water-filter-10-x](https://www.desertcart.is/products/11201156-pentair-pentek-epm-10-carbon-block-water-filter-10-x) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-09-28*
