Pentair Pentek DGD-5005-20 Big Blue Whole House Sediment Filter Cartridge

The DGD Series Cartridges are manufactured from 100% pure polypropylene and are sized for use in Pentair Pentek Big Blue Filter Housings. These cartridges are designed for purity and will not impart taste, odor, or color to the liquid being filtered. Additionally, the polypropylene construction provides superior chemical resistance.

Engineered for enhanced performance, the DGD Series' advanced design combines selective final filtration with appropriate pre-filtration to achieve up to three times the dirt holding capacity of similar size sediment cartridges and even greater capacity than standard spun or string-wound cartridges. The larger diameter of the filter reduces the particle load, allowing it to operate at higher velocities. The effective filter depth is increased to a full 233%, providing very high particulate reduction efficiencies and added loading capacity.

The design and performance characteristics of the DGD Series Cartridges make them an excellent choice for all residential, rural, municipal, and commercial applications. These filters are ideal for keeping your water clean and protecting your appliances by removing dirt, sand, silt, and particulates.

Tested and certified by NSF International to NSF/ANSI Standard 42, the DGD Big Blue water filter cartridges are manufactured with 100% pure polypropylene, ensuring your peace of mind. The filter density increases toward the cartridge's center, resulting in superior particulate reduction and three times the dirt holding capacity of similar size sediment cartridges.

Designed for high-flow applications, the DGD Series Cartridges are sized for use in all 20-inch Big Blue filter housings (or other heavy-duty filter housings) and can replace any 20-inch x 4.5-inch sediment filter cartridge. For best results and performance, it is recommended to replace the cartridges every 6 months or when you notice a drop in water pressure or water quality.
