Filters on Amazon (I found ebay to be cheaper):
20 Micron 20-inch X 4.5-inch filter - amzn.to/42IXeCQ
10 Micron 20-inch X 4.5-inch filter - amzn.to/45XcsXy
5 Micron 20-inch X 4.5-inch filter - amzn.to/3N4EKqf
I bought my filters in boxes of 20 and paid about $20 each.
I slowly walk through the steps of changing all 3 sediment filters. These hold the 4.5-in wide filters that are 20-in long.
I was quoted $250 for the job including filters but did it for much less. I turned off the water into and out from the filters. Make sure to release the pressure at this point. Using the wrench loosen the canister and remove the filter. Wipe out the canister, clean the rubber seal and replace the filter. Add lubricant on the o-ring and replace it back into the slot on the canister. Tighten the housing and repeat this until all the filters have been replaced. Turn the water back on into the filters and allow them to fill almost all the way to the top, then release the air pressure to prevent it from entering the pipes to your building. Once most of the air is out, turn the valve back on allowing the water to enter the building. Keep an eye out for leaks.

Just a quick thing. You can drill and tap some 1/4” sample valves in the bottom of the filter bowls to drain each filter so less water and no need to have the container under it. I do commercial ultra filtration and in labs or rooms that no water worry about the excess water on the floor on the floor we install them. In boiler rooms etc we don’t. And one thing, for people watching this, only hand tighten the filters, over tightening can cause the ring to stretch and not seal again. Do not use filter wrench to tighten it. If it leaks remove it and clean the oring and channel it sits in lubricate it and reinstall.
