APEC Water Calcite Acidic Water Neutralizer 10" Filter Kit With 3/8" Quick Connect - PHPLUSKIT-38
APEC Water PHPLUSKIT-38 Calcite Acidic Water Neutralizer 10" Filter Kit With 3/8" Quick Connect
The PHPLUSKIT-38 cartridge is a super high capacity, naturally occurring PH increaser. It is for general drinking water pH increase purposes. It can also be used as an reverse osmosis polisher if desired (installed at the last stage). Since it is sacrificial, the calcite acid cartridge will add 2-5 ppm of hardness to the water. This is also an excellent way to reduce the corrosiveness low tds water.
This filter is constructed totally from FDA grade materials and media. This calcite filter will deliver a neutral effluent form acidic feed as low as pH5. Low pH's require slower flow rates.
One of the advantages of Calcite is its self-limiting property. When properly applied, it corrects pH only enough to reach a non-corrosive equilibrium. It does not overcorrect under normal conditions. Upon contact with Calcite, acidic water slowly dissolve the calcium carbonate to raise the pH.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
The filter cartridge should be replaced every 6 months to maintain optimal performance and ensure the water pH is effectively increased.
-
The filter has a peak flow rate capacity of 1 gallon per minute (GPM), which is suitable for typical household water filtration needs.
-
This filter is made with 100% US-made high purity calcium carbonate and FDA grade materials. It features polypropylene fittings with food grade EPDM O-rings, ensuring safe water and food applications without leaching harmful substances.
-
The filter naturally increases the pH level by adding calcium carbonate mineral, reducing water acidity. It typically adds 2 to 5 parts per million (ppm) of hardness, which helps reduce the corrosiveness of low total dissolved solids (TDS) water.
-
Yes, the filter includes 3/8" quick connection fittings and comes with 10 feet of food grade tubing and a John Guest union connector for easy, leak-free installation and maintenance.
