How does TerraFloŽ work?

The TerraTopCBLX attaches directly to your faucet with a diverter valve. For filtered water, turn your cold water on, then pull the diverter valve pin. The unfiltered tap water is divertered through the tubing up the TerraFilCBLX carbon block cartridge (with built in 0.6 GPM flow restrictor to allow the water effective contact time) and out the filter spout. The filter housing dimensions are (11 3/4" H x 5 3/4" W x 5 1/4" D).
