Wellsediment filter

The unit comes with mounting bracket, screws, a filter wrench, and a 5-micron pleated (FloMax), washable and reusable cartridge. Any standard sized (2.5" X 9.75") sediment cartridge can be used as a replacement. With the 5 micron cartridge provided, the pressure drop is slightly more than 1/2 psi at 10 gallons per minute.

This is an excellent unit for light sediment whole house use and for prefiltering for other treatment devices like softeners, upflow filters, and ultraviolet purifiers. The filter is light enough that in most cases it can be supported by the pipe and does not require use of the mounting bracket.
