I am using a Sediment, granular activated coconut carbon, coconut carbon block cartridges. Just wondering what would be the most effective order to put these in.

I believe mine is set up - ro --> sediment --> activated carbon --> carbon block --> di resin

I'll repost when I get home to make sure.

Coconut carbon is used primarily for taste in drinking water systems.

Typically you go Sediment first, higher micron carbon second ( 5 Micron Matrikx CTO/2 carbon block is a good choice ) lower micron carbon third ( 0.6 Micron Matrikx + 1 carbon block is a good choice ).

If you have only 1 carbon then I'd go with the smaller micron. The more particles you can trap prior to the membrane will be easiest on the membrane.
