This exceptionally tough and versatile stainless steel filter vessel is perfectly sized for residential or light industrial applications. Economical to maintain, it uses four standard 2.5" x 20" cartridges and is ideal for either sediment filtration or chemical/chlorine removal.
With sediment cartridges, it can support very high flow rates. With carbon block cartridges, it provides long-term chlorine/chemical removal and relatively high flow rates.
Constructed of 100% stainless steel (#316L), it will withstand pressures of up to 150 psi and temperatures to 250 degrees (housing only — most cartridges limit temperatures severely, although we can supply high temperature sediment cartridges).
The top plate that holds the cartridges is adjustable, which adds versatility and allows the use of eight 9.75" inch cartridges rather than four 20" cartridges, if desired.
With the convenient clamp band (see picture below), changing cartridges couldn't be easier.
Large 2" in and out ports allow for installation on virtually any residential system.
Separate drains (1/2") are provided for both unfiltered and filtered water chambers.
We no longer offer the stainless steel systems at this time.
For high flow whole house cartridge filters we now recommend :
Compact 20" whole house cartridge filters. These systems can be configured as parallel installations to provide high flow rates with a wide range of high quality filter cartridges.
Watts Big Bubba high flow whole house systems - Heavy duty high flow cartridge systems for commercial and large residential applications.
Replacement cartridges for these systems are still available and listed below. If you need parts or filters for your existing system place contact us.
Note: This unit will accept any radial 2.5" X 20" filter cartridge from our cartridge menu. It will not work with axial cartridges. Radial cartridges are identified by a central hole that extends through the cartridge—most carbon blocks and sediment cartridges are radial.
Each of the cartridges below are offered with a volume discount of 10% off for two, or 15% off for three or more.
