5 Micron String Wound Sediment Whole House Water Filter Replacement Cartridge 20" x 2.5"

Sediment filtration is a vital part of any water filtration process. A high flow sediment filtration cartridge does just that, it removes the sediments from the water source you are trying to filter. At times preparing the water quality for the next stage in the process so that the second cartridge can perform at its best and last for as long as possible. There are different types of sediment filter cartridges. We currently stock 3 of the most popular styles. 

• Pleated Polyester washable

• Polyspun

• String Wound Polypropylene 

All available in a range of dimensions and micron sizes for different applications.

String Wound Polypropylene Cartridges

A String Wound filter cartridge is manufactured from a surfactant-free polypropylene string over a polypropylene core. The large void volume design offers low-cost, reliable filtration performance with a high contaminant holding capacity. 

Cartridge Information

Filter cartridge manufacturers rate cartridges in "microns". Microns are a size measurement of the pore size, so the smaller the number, the tighter the filter. One-micron filters are most commonly used for drinking water. In general, they are too tight to filter large amounts of water without slowing the flow to unacceptable levels.

Filter cartridge manufacturers also use the words "absolute" and "nominal" to describe their products' micron ratings. Absolute means absolute. Nominal means "more or less."

Cartridge Guide

Whole House and High Flow Filter Cartridges

It is the micron size & the physical size of the cartridge which determines what that particular sediment cartridge can be used for.

For whole house filtration, you can go as low as 1 micron. But to ensure the best flow rate for a whole house, the most common size used is 5 microns.

For drinking water, you would want to use from the 5-micron size down smaller.
