Should I put my chlorine carbon blocker before or after carbon 1micron and 5micron.
 
Below the carbon
You want filter pad first, carbon and then media
 
I do 5 micron ->1 micron -> carbon -> carbon -> 1micron -> ro -> DI
 
I'am thinking:
1micron sed>5micron sed>1micron carbon>5micron carbon>1micron chlorine carbon>RO>DI mixed>DI mixed
 
I'am thinking:
1micron sed>5micron sed>1micron carbon>5micron carbon>1micron chlorine carbon>RO>DI mixed>DI mixed
If you put 1 micron before 5 micron, the 1 micron will stop anything before the 5 micron gets a chance to. Clogging the 1 micron prematurely and not get as much use out of the 5 micron.
 
I'am thinking:
1micron sed>5micron sed>1micron carbon>5micron carbon>1micron chlorine carbon>RO>DI mixed>DI mixed
If those are the filters you have I would run them this way

5micron sed>1micron sed>5micron carbon>1micron carbon>1micron chlorine carbon>RO>DI mixed>DI mixed
 
I really like having a filter in front of the RO membrane just in case the carbon releases anything unexpected. That way I can protect the RO membrane. :)
