Tier1 1 Micron 10 Inch x 4.5 Inch Whole House Sediment Water Filter Replacement Cartridge

Whole house water filter systems are placed on the main water line entering your home, designed to remove rust, sediment, chlorine, and other chemical contaminants from all water entering your home. This ensures that no matter where you are in your house, whether it's the guest bedroom shower, outside hose, kitchen, or bathroom sink, you and your family can have clean, healthy, and great-tasting water.

Not only does a whole house water filter give you the luxury of clean, great-tasting water from every faucet in the house, but it can also help extend the life of appliances that use water, such as dishwashers, water heaters, and washing machines. This is because it removes the sediment, chlorine, and other contaminants that would otherwise be entering those appliances.

Reasons to Invest in a Sediment Reducing Filter: Sediment in drinking water on its own isn't particularly harmful to humans or pets, but it can be an indication of lead or iron contamination, which can cause serious health issues. If you suspect there is lead in your pipes, get your water tested.

Sediment filters help protect other appliances and possessions from the harmful effects of particles, which can cause staining and spots on clothes, sinks, toilets, and more, as well as wear and deterioration on pipes and appliances.

If other filtration mediums are already in place in your home, sediment filters as a first layer of defense can increase the lifetime of your other filters by reducing the number of particles and contaminants that would otherwise wear on those other filters.
