Tier1 1 Micron 10 Inch x 2.5 Inch | 6-Pack Sediment Water Filter Replacement Cartridge

Whole house water filter systems are designed to remove rust, sediment, chlorine, and other chemical contaminants from all water entering your home, providing clean, healthy, and great-tasting water throughout your house. These filters are placed on the main water line entering your residence, ensuring that no matter where you are - whether it's the guest bedroom shower, outside hose, kitchen, or bathroom sink - you and your family can enjoy the benefits of purified water.

Not only do whole house water filters offer the luxury of clean, great-tasting water from every faucet, but they can also help extend the life of water-based appliances such as dishwashers, water heaters, and washing machines. By removing sediment, chlorine, and other contaminants, these filters prevent the buildup and deterioration that would otherwise occur in these appliances.

The Tier1 1 Micron 10 x 2.5 sediment water filter is a high-quality replacement option that can be used in most standard 10 x 2.5-inch water filter housings. This filter is designed to achieve filtration down to 1 micron, improving water quality and reducing the presence of sediment, rust, dirt, sand, silt, and corrosion at a flow rate of 5 GPM.

Specifications and features of the Tier1 1 Micron 10 x 2.5 sediment water filter include:

Actual Size: 9-3/4 inches (long) x 2-1/2 inches (diameter) Media: Spun Wound Grooved Polypropylene Filter Life: 6 months Micron: 1 Flow Rate: 5 GPM

The filter is compatible with a variety of replacement part numbers, including 343601, 193113, IF-SP-1001, PX01-9-781227865-VP1, VX01-978176376155225-43, and 255690.

Installing the Tier1 1 Micron 10 x 2.5 sediment water filter is a straightforward process:

1. Turn off the water supply and press the red pressure-relief button (if present).
2. Unscrew the housing, remove the large o-ring, and wipe it clean.
3. Discard the used filter cartridge, wash the housing with dish soap and warm water, and rinse thoroughly.
4. Fill the housing 1/3 with water, add about 1 tablespoon of bleach, and scrub before rinsing thoroughly.
5. Lubricate the o-ring with clean silicone grease and ensure it is seated level in the groove.
6. Insert the new filter cartridge, screw the housing onto the cap, and hand-tighten (do not overtighten).
7. Turn on the water supply, press the pressure-relief button (if present), and check for leaks.

Investing in a sediment-reducing filter like the Tier1 1 Micron 10 x 2.5 can provide several benefits. Sediment in drinking water can be an indication of lead or iron contamination, which can pose serious health risks. Sediment filters also help protect other appliances and possessions from the harmful effects of particles, preventing staining, spots, and deterioration. Additionally, if other filtration media are already in place, a sediment filter can serve as a first line of defense, increasing the lifetime of those other filters by reducing the number of particles and contaminants they need to process.
