This whole house filter package is designed specifically to remove fine dirt, sediment, rust particles, and other particulates down to a level of 5 microns thereby improving water clarity, taste, and odor, and protecting your home's plumbing system (including other water treatment equipment) from damage and pre-mature clogging due to sediment build-up. This package features Pentek's unique DGD series dual-gradient sediment filter. This filter uses the entire depth of its media by trapping the largest sediment particles on the outside of the filter, then gradually stepping down the size of particles it will reject as the water moves closer to the core of the filter. The outer layer is rated at 50 microns and the inner core is rated at 5 microns (nominal). The result is longer filter life, greater dirt-holding capacity, higher flow rates, and remarkably low pressure drop.
The WH1B+ features an authentic brand-name Pentek Big Blue filter housing. The housing is made of polypropylene and is NSF 42 validated for material requirements so you know it is safe for potable water contact.
Included in package:
- one (1) heavy-duty Pentek Big Blue 10" filter housing (1" NPT) w/ pressure relief button
- one (1) heavy-duty mounting bracket and related screws
- one (1) Pentek DGD-5005 dual-gradient 5 micron sediment filter cartridge
- one (1) spanner wrench

Applications & Suitability:
The WH1B+ is well suited to general sediment filtration on a whole house basis for average to large homes, as well as many light commercial applications where flow rates are not expected to exceed 10 gallons per minute. The 100% pure polypropylene filter media is highly resistant to bacteria, making the WH1 an excellent choice for well water, lake water, stream water, and municipal (city) water treatment applications. The WH1B+ is a very popular choice for whole house sediment pre-filtration for UV water sterilizers (Viqua (Trojan) UVMax and Sterilight models).

Why choose the WH1B+ Whole House Sediment Filter Package?
- we use only the highest quality heavy duty filter housings with large diameter inlet and outlet for less pressure drop and better flow dynamics
- housings and filters are NSF Certified (Standard 42 for material requirements)
- we use standard filter sizes from the industry's largest manufacturer (Pentek)so you will always be able to obtain replacement filters for your system
- many competitors use small 2.5" x 10" filters in their whole house filter systems, resulting in poor water pressure, short filter life, and less than optimal flow characteristics
- we use filters with much greater surface area and dirt-holding capacity to maximize contaminant removal, improve water pressure and flow characteristics, and extend filter life so you have less maintenance to do!
- sturdy powder-coated steel mounting bracket, and spanner wrench included!
- great pricing on system packages are replacement filters - guaranteed best prices in USA and Canada on all replacement filters purchased by the case!
