So does anyone ever feel a bit icky about all that filter floss that gets tossed, replaced, reordered, re-cut, and tossed and replaced again? How many people change their filter floss every or every other day? How much waste is that going into landfills? And what's that stuff even made out of??
Don't get me wrong, I used to order my hunks of floss from inTank and eventually couldn't do it anymore. Instead, I ordered one roll of felt, same stuff filter socks are made of, cut it into a bunch of squares like my old filter floss, and now I go through most of my squares, changing twice a week, and then run 'em through the laundry like filter socks. I don't plan on buying or throwing away mechanical filter material for a long time, if ever...
Any thoughts or discussion on this? Is it just me?
Thanks
