Tier1 20 Micron 10 Inch x 4.5 Inch | 2-Pack Whole House Granular Activated Carbon Block Water Filter Replacement Cartridge

Whole house water filter systems are designed to remove rust, sediment, chlorine, and other chemical contaminants from all water entering your home, ensuring that you and your family can have clean, healthy, and great-tasting water no matter where you are in your house. These filters are placed on the main water line entering your home, providing the luxury of clean, great-tasting water from every faucet.

Not only do whole house water filters improve the taste and quality of your water, but they can also help extend the life of appliances that use water, such as dishwashers, water heaters, and washing machines. This is because the filters remove the sediment, chlorine, and other contaminants that would otherwise be entering those appliances, reducing the wear and tear on the internal components.

The Tier1 20-micron granular activated carbon water filter is a compatible replacement for Pentek GAC-BB, 155153-43, and fits most 10-inch water filter housings. Its high-quality filtration can achieve filtration down to 20 microns, improving taste, odor, and water quality at a flow rate of 2 GPM, reducing chlorine taste and odor, sediment, dirt, and particles.

Depending on the quality of your water, it is recommended to replace the filter cartridge every 6 months to ensure optimal performance. Tier1 products undergo strict quality assurance testing and are manufactured using the highest quality materials, ensuring durability and reliability.

The installation process is quick and easy, with a universal fit into your 10 x 4.5-inch whole house water filter system. The steps involved include turning off the water supply, removing the used filter cartridge, cleaning and disinfecting the housing, lubricating the o-ring, inserting the new filter cartridge, and turning the water supply back on.

Sediment in drinking water on its own is not particularly harmful to humans or pets, but it can be an indication of lead or iron contamination, which can cause serious health issues. If you suspect there is lead in your pipes, it is recommended to get your water tested. Sediment filters can help protect other appliances and possessions from the harmful effects of particles, which can cause staining and spots on clothes, sinks, toilets, and more, as well as wear and deterioration on pipes and appliances.

If other filtration mediums are already in place in your home, sediment filters can serve as a first layer of defense, increasing the lifetime of your other filters by reducing the number of particles and contaminants that would otherwise wear on those filters.
