Pentek DGD-5005 Big Blue 10-Inch 5-Micron Sediment Filter Cartridge – Pack of 8

Overview

Upgrade your whole-house filtration with the Pentek DGD-5005 Big Blue cartridge. Crafted from 100% pure polypropylene, these 10" x 4.5" sediment filters are designed for use in Big Blue housings and will not impart taste, odor, or color to the water.

In everyday use, the DGD-5005 combines selective final filtration with pre-filtration to deliver reliable particulate reduction at higher flow. The larger diameter reduces particle load, helping the filter operate efficiently, while the effective depth increases up to 233%, boosting capacity for particulates over time.
