Aqua-Pure AP810-2 Whole House Replacement Filter for AP802 Housing | Large Capacity

Overview

The Aqua-Pure AP810-2 is a large-capacity, 4.5" diameter drop-in cartridge designed for whole-house filtration. It works with standard 20" housings and is engineered to reduce sediment as small as 5 microns nominal, helping water feel cleaner across everyday uses from drinking to bathing. The cartridge’s rigid polypropylene fiber construction helps keep sediment from circulating back into the water during system flow changes, while a grooved surface increases total filtration area for longer cartridge life.
