Product Description
Pentek ECP5-20BB 255494-43 Big Blue 20-Inch Sediment Water Filter, 4.5" x 20", Pleated Cellulose Polyester Cartridge, White End-Cap, 5 Micron
- REDUCES SEDIMENT AND PARTICULATES - Pleated cellulose polyester media captures dirt, sand, silt, and rust down to 5 microns while maintaining high flow rates for whole house water filtration
- 36 SQUARE FEET OF FILTER MEDIA - Pleated design provides significantly more surface area than standard cartridges for extended dirt-holding capacity and longer filter life
- SONICALLY WELDED FOR EFFICIENCY - Overlap seam is sonically welded to reduce internal bypass and improve filtration efficiency; resin-impregnated fibers provide higher wet strength than regular cellulose
- FITS 20" BIG BLUE HOUSINGS - Drop-in replacement for any standard 20" x 4.5" Big Blue or heavy-duty filter housing; white endcap is color-coded for easy micron identification at replacement
- LOW PRESSURE DROP - Less than 1 psi at 20 gpm maintains strong water flow throughout your system; operating temperature range 40-125 degrees F; replace every 3-6 months
