Product Details
The aftermarket ClearChoice CLCH115 filter is used in refrigerators by Maytag, Whirlpool, Jenn-Air and others. It is designed to replace the factory original UKF7003 / UKF7003AXX. The CLCH115 filter creates better tasting water for drinking and making beverages as well as clean, clearer, healthy ice. Our filters use an advanced filtration process using activated carbon. The carbon helps to reduce those harmful contaminants that can seep into your drinking water. Over time, the carbon inside the filter becomes less effective at absorbing those chemicals. Therefore, we typically recommend replacing your UKF7003 filter every 3 to 6 months depending on usage.
Features:
- High quality - inexpensive alternative to factory original product
- Uses advanced carbon block technology
- Easy installation and operation
- Helps reduce chlorine taste and odor
- Helps reduce contaminants found in tap water and improves its quality
- Free returns
- Free shipping
- 100% money back guarantee

Activated Block Carbon Technology
The CLCH115 uses activated block carbon technology. Carbon is one of the most adsorptive substances, and its numerous and microscopic pores make it capable of adsorbing many microscopic contaminants. Adsorption is a chemical bond between the surface of the carbon and a molecule (contaminant).
- Activated carbon is a carbonaceous, highly porous adsorptive medium that has a complex structure composed primarily of carbon atoms. The networks of pores in activated carbons are channels created within a rigid skeleton of disordered layers of carbon atoms, linked together by chemical bonds, stacked unevenly, creating a highly porous structure between the carbon layers. Activated carbon is able to attract and capture a whole host of contaminants, including chlorine and other organic chemical compounds.
- Activated carbon means that the carbon has been treated at 1000°C with steam molecules to selectively burn holes into the carbonized raw material, creating a multitude of pores inside the carbonaceous matrix. This process creates so much surface area that a teaspoon of activated carbon has roughly the same surface area as a soccer field!
- Activated block carbon, then, with its use of adsorption, is one of the most effective water filtration methods in use today.
