Pentair Pentek DGD-5005-20 Big Blue Water Filter, Whole House Sediment Filter Cartridge Replacement, 20 x 4.5, 5 Micron, Pack of 1

The DGD Series Cartridges, manufactured from 100% pure polypropylene, are sized for use in Pentair Pentek Big Blue Filter Housings. Designed for purity, these cartridges will not impart taste, odor, or color to the liquid being filtered. Additionally, the polypropylene construction provides superior chemical resistance.

The advanced design of the DGD Series combines selective final filtration with appropriate pre-filtration to achieve up to three times the dirt holding capacity of similar-size sediment cartridges, and even greater capacity than standard spun or string-wound cartridges. The larger diameter of the filter reduces the particle load, allowing it to operate at higher velocities. The effective filter depth is increased to a full 233%, providing very high particulate reduction efficiencies and added loading capacity.

These design and performance characteristics make the DGD Series Cartridges an excellent choice for all residential, rural, municipal, and commercial applications. By removing dirt, sand, silt, and particulates, the DGD Big Blue water filter cartridges help keep your water clean and protect your appliances.

The DGD Series Cartridges are an ideal high-flow pre-filter. The filter density increases towards the cartridge's center, resulting in superior particulate reduction and three times the dirt holding capacity of similar-size sediment cartridges.

For your peace of mind, the DGD Series Cartridges have been tested and certified by NSF International to NSF/ANSI Standard 42. They are manufactured with 100% pure polypropylene and are sized for use in all 20-inch Big Blue filter housings (or other heavy-duty filter housings), replacing any 20-inch x 4.5-inch sediment filter cartridge.

To ensure the best results and performance, it is recommended to replace the DGD Series Cartridges every 6 months or when you notice a drop in water pressure or water quality.
