The Epic Water Filters Smart Shield MAX is the under-sink replacement cartridge for Epic’s premium under-sink filtration system. The triple-layer construction is what distinguishes it from single-stage carbon filters: an external Nano Fiber layer captures microplastics and pathogens, an internal Carbon Fiber Block reduces chemicals and heavy metals, and a Granular Filter Resin targets fluoride and additional specialty contaminants.
Independently certified for highly effective contaminant removal — Epic’s NSF/ANSI testing standards include 42, 53, 401, and P473 for the most-tested water filter performance benchmarks. The filter handles 99.99% of common drinking water contaminants including lead, chlorine, fluoride, PFAS, microplastics, pharmaceuticals, and parasitic compounds.
Filters proudly made in the USA — expertly designed and manufactured in America at Epic Water Filters’ Palmetto, Florida facility. Epic is vertically integrated with raw material selection, manufacturing, quality control, and final assembly all happening under one roof. For households with Epic under-sink installations, this is the right replacement cartridge to maintain certified performance levels.
