Detailed Description:
3-Stage 20"x 4.5" Big Blue Anti-Scale Filtration System 1" NPTF Ports
Get clean and clear water for your whole house by removing sulfur, dirt, discoloration, odors, and bad taste with our 3-stage Whole House system, perfect for homes, cottages, and offices.
1" Ports (Inlet/Outlet Sizes): Flow Setup Direction is Right to Left (Right Inlet - Left Outlet)
The clear housing is on the Inlet Side, allowing you to inspect the sediment filter.
Our Whole House water filtration systems are designed to deliver safer, cleaner, water to every faucet and showerhead into the whole house without reducing water pressure. By using oversized filter cartridges and housings this system maintains the strongest water pressure possible. In addition, these larger housings and filters require less frequent services, which saves you time, money, and effort.
However, it's crucial to clarify that this filter isn't intended for direct consumption as a drinking water filter. Its primary purpose lies in serving as a comprehensive whole-house water filter, effectively managing iron and calcium levels in the water. While it addresses the hardness with slowphos, it does not entirely eliminate it. Therefore, using filtered water for drinking purposes may reintroduce some iron and calcium into the body. This information underscores the filter's specific design and functionality, ensuring users are well-informed about its intended use and limitations.
Pre-loaded Filter Cartridges:
- 1st Stage: 5 Micron Polypropylene Sediment Filter 104112
- 2nd Stage: Phosphate Anti-Scale Filter 104132
- 3rd Stage: (CTO) Carbon Block Filter 104114
Vertical Hydraulic Gauge
Having a pressure gauge is helpful in monitoring your incoming water pressure, internal unit pressure & when to replace the filters. It's best to replace the filters when you see changes in reading start, an increasing pressure drop is a good indication that the cartridges are starting to clog with particulate or the filter's media is exhausted as the water inside the system can't pass through the filters normally.
