Activated carbon filters for Bio Bucket

These activated charcoal filters are designed for a kitchen compost pail with a lid that holds a filter.

If you're not sure, email us with the model of your pail, and we'll let you know whether these filters will fit it.

Replace the charcoal filter as soon as odors come back: it's a sign that the charcoal is saturated. On average, a filter lasts 4 to 6 months. How often you need to change it depends on how much you use it and on the season.

Keep the filter dry: once it gets damp or clogged, it loses its effectiveness. The pack of 5 filters gives you several replacements.

It couldn't be easier: remove the old charcoal filter from the lid and put the new one in its place. Swapping it out takes just a few seconds, with no effort at all.

While you're changing the filter, take the opportunity to rinse the lid, where residue and moisture tend to build up.

The activated charcoal filter does most of the work. Fitted in the lid, it neutralizes the odors rising from the pail and makes it less attractive to flies and fruit flies. A few simple habits help it work even better:

• empty the kitchen compost pail 2 to 3 times a week;
• add a little paper towel or cardboard along with the peels;
• keep the filter dry and replace it as soon as odors return. The pack of 5 filters leaves you with spares.
