Hi there,
How often should I change the carbon media from the filtration elements? Thank you |

The simple answer is that the carbon should be changed when it is exhausted.
How long that takes will depend on many factors; amount of carbon, type of carbon, water parameters. If you are monitoring a water parameter influenced by carbon, just change when the values change. If not, your guess is as good as mine. |
