Whole House Sediment Filters
We offer a series of popular whole house sediment filters designed to remove dirt, sediment, rust particles, and other particulates from both city and well water thereby improving water clarity, taste, and odor, and protecting your home's plumbing system (including other water treatment equipment) from damage and pre-mature clogging due to sediment build-up. All of our sediment filters use multi-gradient spun polypropylene filter cartridges. These cartridges use the entire depth of their media by trapping the largest sediment particles on the outside of the filter, then gradually stepping down the size of particles they will reject as the water moves closer to the core of the filter. The result is longer filter life, greater dirt-holding capacity, higher flow rates, and remarkably low pressure drop. The 100% pure polypropylene media is highly resistant to bacteria and chemicals, making this an excellent choice for both well water and municipal water treatment applications.
Our filter housings are made in the USA by the largest manufacturer of water filters in the world. The housings are NSF-certified (Standard 42 - material requirements) and are constructed of heavy duty polypropylene. They feature large diameter 1" inlet and outlets for low pressure drop, as well as a convenient pressure relief button. You can use simple plumbing fittings from your local hardware store to connect to your pipes if you have 3/4" or 1/2" pipes. A sturdy stainless steel mounting bracket and mounting screws, as well as a spanner wrench and spare filters are also included with every sediment filter package.
Our standard systems are designed for flow rates up to 10 gallons per minute and suit the needs of most average homes, in fact, even our standard units have more flow capacity, less pressure drop, more dirt-holding capacity, and longer-filter life than most competitors' models. If you need even higher flow rates, our High Flow Series models (WH1-HF and WH1B+-HF) are designed for applications up to 20 gallons per minute.
Our 5 micron WH1B+ and WH1B+-HF models are very popular sediment pre-filters for Trojan UVMax and Sterilight UV sterilizers.
Why choose one of our whole house sediment filtration systems?
 |
we use only the highest quality heavy duty filter housings with large diameter inlet and outlet for less pressure drop and better flow dynamics |
 |
all of our housings and hardware are made in the USA from materials that are NSF-approved for drinking water applications (NONE of our housings are made in China!) |
 |
we use standard filter sizes so you will always be able to obtain replacement filters for your system |
 |
many competitors use small 2.5" x 10" filters in their whole house filter systems, resulting in poor water pressure, short filter life, and less than optimal flow characteristics - we use filters with much greater surface area and dirt-holding capacity to maximize contaminant removal, improve water pressure and flow characteristics, and extend filter life so you have less maintenance to do! |
 |
great pricing on system packages are replacement filters - guaranteed best prices in USA and Canada on all replacement filters purchased by the case! |
