Membrane Solutions 5-Micron Sediment Filter Cartridge 20"x2.5" for Whole House – 6 Pack

Overview

Designed for residential whole-house filtration, the Membrane Solutions 5-Micron Sediment Filter Cartridge is a standard 20x2.5 inch size that fits a wide range of housings. This six-pack ensures you have replacements on hand for routine maintenance, helping you keep taps clean and protect downstream equipment. The 5-micron rating targets visible sediment while preserving essential minerals, supporting clearer water across your home.

With three-layer gradient density media, this cartridge offers greater dirt-holding capacity than many comparable filters, reducing the load on downstream filters. The hot-melt construction minimizes loose fibers, helping to minimize secondary pollution to the liquid. The design supports compatibility with a broad range of housings, making it a flexible option for different filtration setups.

Key benefits

• Reduces visible sediment to improve water clarity and safeguard plumbing and appliances.
• Three distinct gradient density layers increase dirt-holding capacity versus standard filters.
• Hot-melt media minimizes loose fibers, reducing secondary pollution in the liquid (NSF-style design).
• Broad housing compatibility supports flexible installations in many systems.

Design and usage details

This cartridge is designed as the first line of defense in many filtration setups. Regular replacement helps maintain water quality and protect the overall system. If you monitor system pressure, a differential around 30 psi can guide when a change is due.

• Recommended replacement frequency is typically two to three times per year, depending on water quality and usage.
• Standard 20x2.5 inch form factor fits many home and light-commercial housings.
• Gradient density media delivers higher dirt capture without removing essential minerals.
• Designed to minimize fiber shedding during operation, helping maintain clean downstream water.

Note: Always follow your filtration system manual for installation orientation and compatibility. Store spare cartridges in a clean, dry place and handle with clean hands during replacement to preserve performance.
