Can-Filters - Replacement Pre-Filter for Can-Lite Carbon Filters
Maintaining a clean pre-filter is the single most important factor in extending the life and efficiency of your carbon filtration system. These genuine Can-Lite Replacement Pre-Filters are engineered to shield your activated carbon from airborne contaminants such as dust, lint, and small insects. By capturing these particulates before they reach the carbon bed, the pre-filter prevents the micro and mesopores of the CKG 48 carbon from becoming obstructed, ensuring your filter maintains its full 18-month lifespan and maximum odour-adsorption capacity. Designed for a perfect fit across the entire Can-Lite range, these high-loft filters also ensure optimal airflow, preventing your extraction fans from overworking and maintaining consistent negative pressure in your grow space.
Best For: Extending carbon filter lifespan, maintaining maximum fan airflow, protecting intake fans, and ensuring 100% odour neutralisation efficiency.
Key Features
- Pore Protection Technology: Specifically designed to trap dust and organic debris that would otherwise clog the activated carbon, preserving its chemical adsorption potential.
- Optimised Airflow: A clean pre-filter reduces static pressure, allowing your ventilation system to move air more efficiently and reducing energy consumption.
- Versatile Intake Use: These filters serve as excellent intake screens; simply secure one end over your inlet ducting to ensure the air entering your grow room is free from pests and pollutants.
- Washable & Reusable: For minor soiling, these filters can be rinsed with clean water and air-dried, though keeping a fresh spare on hand is recommended for peak performance.
- Custom Fit for Can-Lite Models: Available in a full range of sizes to provide a snug, airtight fit for every model from the compact 425S to the industrial 3500.
Available Model Sizes
- Compact Series: 425S, 425L, 600
- Intermediate Series: 1000, 1500, 2000
- Industrial Series: 2500, 3000, 3500, 4500
Installation & Maintenance
- Simple Fitment: Slide the pre-filter over the steel or plastic housing of your Can-Lite filter and secure it using the integrated elastic or fixed points.
- Maintenance Schedule: Inspect your pre-filter every 4–8 weeks. In dusty environments or during high-pollen seasons, more frequent cleaning or replacement may be required.
- Humidity Control: By ensuring maximum airflow, a clean pre-filter helps mitigate the negative effects of high humidity on the carbon bed's performance.
Why Use Genuine Can-Lite Pre-Filters?
- Maximum Dwell Time: Ensuring air passes through the pre-filter correctly prevents "channelling," where air bypasses the carbon, leading to breakthrough odours.
- Fan Longevity: Reducing the resistance caused by a clogged filter prevents motor heat build-up in your extraction fans.
- Clean Environment: Using these as intake filters prevents external contaminants and pests from entering your sterile growing environment.

Oversized Item Delivery Options
Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.
Available options include:
✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)
Important Notes:
- Shipping costs vary by location and method
- Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
- Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
- Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
- Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions
Business Delivery:
- Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
- If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
- Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment
See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.
Important Note on Availability & Shipping
Our warehouse is a logistics hub, not a retail showroom. Listing a product online does not mean it is stored at our Thomastown warehouse — many lines ship from supplier hubs (split fulfilment may apply).
How lead times work:
- Product page ETA: The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) / lead-time badge shown on the product page at checkout is the agreed delivery timeframe for that order under Australian Consumer Law.
- Metro baselines: Advertised ETAs apply to standard metropolitan zones. Regional and remote addresses may take longer and may attract surcharges.
- Peak seasons: Orders in March–May, August–October, EOFY (June), Black Friday/Cyber Monday (November), and Christmas/New Year (December–January) may automatically add a 2–4 week buffer beyond the product page ETA.
- Supplier-dependent / backordered items: If stock is delayed, we will notify you with a revised ETA. You then have 7 days to accept the new timeframe or cancel for a full refund.
- Adloheat: Custom-made products from Adloheat (Pakenham, VIC) may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order.
Full fulfilment, cancellation, and freight rules are in our Terms & Conditions.
