Big blue fat 3 stage whole house water filter 20” x 4.5” Filter Housing

3 stage whole house water filter is mainly used for the pre filtration stage of the whole house water purification system. As the first line of defense for household water use, it can effectively remove impurities, particles, etc. from water.

The filtration accuracy of the Big Blue Fat three-stage filter is usually high, with a filtration accuracy of up to 5 microns, which is 8-10 times that of ordinary pre filters. This means it can more effectively intercept small impurities in water, ensuring the cleanliness of household water.

Understanding the 3 – Stage Filtration Process

Stage 1: Sediment Filtration

First and foremost, the first stage of a 3 stage whole house water filter is sediment filtration. This serves as the initial line of defense against large particles that may be present in your water supply. When water enters the filter, it passes through a sediment filter, which is typically made of materials like pleated polyester or polypropylene. This filter effectively captures dirt, sand, rust, and other visible debris. By removing these larger particles, it not only improves water clarity but also protects subsequent filtration stages from premature clogging. This is of crucial importance as it ensures the long – term efficiency of the entire filtration system.

Stage 2: Carbon Filtration

Next, after the water has been rid of sediment, it moves on to the second stage: carbon filtration. Here, activated carbon plays a key role. It has a large surface area with countless tiny pores that can adsorb a wide range of contaminants. In particular, carbon filters can effectively remove chlorine, which water suppliers often add to municipal water. As we know, chlorine makes water taste and smell bad and can harm your skin and hair. Additionally, carbon filtration can reduce the presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pesticides, and some heavy metals. As a result, this stage significantly enhances the taste and odor of your water, making it more enjoyable to use for drinking, cooking, and bathing.

Stage 3: Optional Advanced Filtration

Finally, the third stage can vary depending on the specific model of the water filter. Some systems may include a micron – rated filter to further remove fine particles. Others might feature a specialized filter for removing specific contaminants such as fluoride or lead. Manufacturers design this advanced filtration stage to provide an extra layer of protection, ensuring that your water is as pure as possible. Moreover, they can customize it to meet the unique water quality challenges in your area.

Features

• First, let’s take a look at the thickened wall pipe. It is pressure resistant and explosion – proof. Thanks to its solid and thickened materials, it is more durable, explosion – proof, pressure resistant, wear – resistant, and less prone to breakage and damage.
• Next, we come to the red button – pressure relief valve. When the pressure inside the bottle reaches a certain level and you find it impossible to unscrew the bottle cap, you should press the pressure relief valve to release the pressure inside the bottle. After that, you can easily unscrew the bottle cap. Moreover, the one – piece bottle cap can prevent leakage hazards and enables simple assembly.
• Finally, there is the new type of sealing ring. It features high precision and leak prevention. The high – strength and high – elasticity silicone new sealing ring is non – toxic and odorless, ensuring safety and leak – proof performance. So, you can use it with peace of mind.

Installation Precautions

• First, let’s understand the basic connections of the filter. IN is the water inlet, which is connected to the inlet pipe; OUT is the water outlet, and it is connected to the water outlet pipe.
• Next, regarding the installation height, we recommend that the bottom of the filter bottle be at least 20cm above the ground. This is to ensure sufficient space for replacing the filter element.
• Then, before moving forward, please check if the sealing ring is in the designated position. After that, tighten the bottle cap with a wrench.
• Finally, to prevent water leakage, you need to wrap each joint with raw material tape. This simple step can effectively protect the water pipe from leakage.
