question pothead, can you rince off the carbon filters and reuse them?
Haha,i answered your question on the previous page early this morning,its a good question though,unfortunately i cant give you a answer from experience,i never thought of rinsing them off until you mentioned it,thanks for the idea,it may work great.
Here was my plan,i had planned on using the fliters until they started to release smell,then i had planned on laying a towel over them & smashing up the carbon a little with a hammer to re activate it,i will try rinsing half of them & smashing the carbon in the other half,the problem is that im not sure when they are going to become ineffective,im damm near at 4 months right now & they are still working like new with no smell.
Also in your last post you mentioned throwing them out,there is no need to throw them away,in the event that the carbod becomes 100% used up & will not filter the smell properly you simply cut a small slot in the filter,pour out the old carbon then refill the bag & close the cut in the bag,or if velcro was used to close the top of the bag as mentioned earlier in the thread by another member its even easier to refill.
As soon as my filters that are in heavy use start to release any smell at all i will post how long they lasted, then i will try both rinsing them & smashing the carbon.
