Notes:

*Extra Mesh Screens can be ordered separately for this housing in another listing here.

*Separation works best at higher flow rates, pressure loss is less at lower flow rates, it's always a bit of a trade-off.

*Slip is a reference to a glued or solvent cement type connection. We recommend using a primer and cement or a primer and solvent cement glue all in one type for your pipe and fitting connections.

*Generally speaking, for household use the most appropriate filter is the 3/4” .or 1” Spin-Down or Sediment Trapper filter.  Irrigation and other higher flow rate applications (>25 GPM) are best served by our 1.5” or 2”  Spin-Down or Sediment Trapper models.
