Whole-House Water Filter Cartridges, 10 x 4.5-Inch Sediment and Carbon Block, 5-Micron Two-Pack
Whole-house water filter cartridges combine graded polypropylene sediment layers with coconut-shell activated carbon to reduce sand, rust, color, chlorine, and other listed aesthetic impurities from tap water. The five-micron design fits compatible heavy-duty housings and serves as a pre-filtration stage for cleaner water throughout the household.
This PUREPLUS two-pack measures 9.8 inches high by 4.5 inches wide and is compatible with standard 10-by-4.5-inch housings and many 9.75-by-4.5-inch systems. Capacity is listed up to 30,000 gallons, with suggested replacement every three to six months depending on use and water quality. It is recommended for tap water rather than the cited well-water application. Variant choices also include three- and four-count packs plus Deluxe and Pro heavy-metals-removal styles, so select the exact construction and quantity required.
