I’ve been using the Katahdin Verio filter pump for years and I really like it. Occasionally I take the whole thing apart and soak it in a kind of heavy Clorox solution. Say 2 tablespoons per gallon. Including the ceramic filter and pleated filter. I didn’t realize that the pleated filter is filled with activated charcoal granules. Will the Clorox damage the activated charcoal?
