A sediment filter traps and removes visible dirt and debris from your water. Sediment filtration helps other filtration systems, like UV water purifiers, run efficiently.
John Woodard, our Master Water Specialist explains how sediment filters, like pleated, melt-blown, and spin-down filters, remove large particles from water.

Thank you! I have a city well system that is ruining my appliances! I need a water filter that will remove the scale!

Thanks for the great information. I have a question: I recently hired a laborer to replace two of the melted polypropylene sediment filters in my filter system. He went to a hardware store and only found the 40" cartridge. Out of laziness, he decided that instead of driving to another store, he would buy the 40" and cut it in two equal pieces, since my filter housings are 20". Now, if those polypropylene filters are cut with a saw, won't that diminish their efficacy, or worse, won't it allow pieces of the fiber through into the water supply?

Impressing! Is it really limited to sediment filtration even when the filter is at small scale? I do see 0.35 micron sediment filter on the market. If we use a 0.35 micron sediment filter, will it capture the dissolved molecules, i.e., at 0.45 micron scale?

I have both a string filter and a melt blown filter. My system holds two filters, which one should go 1st?

if the flow is reversed like water is from inside the filter towards outside surface will it still filter the water?
