About the Water Filtration System
Many bad tastes and/or odors are removed from water using activated carbon filter cartridges. They are most often used to remove a chlorine taste and smell. They can also reduce other undesirable elements from drinking water supplies, such as organic chemical contaminants and lead.
NOTE: Small amounts of hydrogen sulfide (noticeable as “rotten egg” odor) may be reduced by taste and odor filters for a short time, but the carbon media is quickly exhausted. Other water conditioning equipment is usually required for the continuous treatment of hydrogen sulfide.
The GE water filtration system uses two filter cartridges.
