  • Removes chlorine & chloramines that cause taste & odor
  • Better-tasting water for drinking & cooking
  • Softer skin & hair — no more post-shower dryness

Already Have This Pelican System Installed?

Most Pelican whole-house systems use carbon media that needs to be replaced about every 5 years. If your system is already installed and still working, you likely just need the replacement carbon media, not a new filter system.

Which Pelican System Do You Have?

Use this quick guide to identify the most common Pelican / Pentair systems and the replacement media they need.

PC1000 4–6 bathrooms PC1000 carbon replacement kit
PSE1800 Two-tank system PC600 carbon + NS-3 conditioner media

Most homeowners researching Pelican systems already have one installed and simply need the correct replacement media.

Most homeowners complete the carbon replacement process in about 60–90 minutes with basic tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should Pelican carbon be replaced?

Most Pelican and Pentair whole-house systems need carbon replacement about every 5 years, depending on water usage and quality.

How long will the carbon last?

Typically about 5 years for an average family of four. Actual lifespan may vary depending on water usage and chlorine levels.

Do I need to replace the whole filter system?

No. Most homeowners only need to replace the carbon media, not the entire system.

See our Pelican carbon replacement kits.

Will this system remove water hardness?

This is a whole-house carbon filter, not a water softener. It removes chlorine, chemicals, and sediment. If you want to reduce hardness, pair it with the Pelican NS-3 (or NS-6 for 4-6 bath homes) NaturSoft conditioner.

What is the water pressure drop?

The pressure drop is minimal—typically about 3–5 PSI, which most homes will not notice.

Can I install this system outdoors?

Yes. The system can be installed indoors or in a sheltered outdoor location. Protect it from direct sun exposure and freezing temperatures.

Is this system compatible with well water?

This system is optimized for city water. If you have well water, contact us so we can recommend the correct pre-treatment setup.

What plumbing line size does it support?

The system supports standard ¾" and 1" plumbing lines.

How do I know if this is the right system for my home?

Message us with your zip code and household size and we can help confirm your water type and recommend the correct system size.

Can I replace the carbon myself?

Yes. Most homeowners can complete the replacement process in under two hours with basic tools and the correct replacement kit.
