Radial Carbon Big Blue 20" Filter Housing Assembly w/ 5 Mic. PreFilter

Description

Heavy-Duty Radial Carbon Big Blue 20″ Whole House Filter

with Dual-Gradient 50/5 Micron Sediment Pre-Filter

This premium Big Blue 20″ whole house filtration system is designed for homeowners who want serious filtration performance without sacrificing flow or durability. It combines a high-flow radial carbon filter with an advanced dual-gradient 50/5 micron depth sediment pre-filter, all housed in a heavy-duty Big Blue housing with copper pipe thread connections — not plastic.

This is a noticeably higher-quality system than typical Big Blue setups, built for long service life, high flow rates, and real-world water conditions.

Advanced Dual-Gradient 50/5 Micron Sediment Pre-Filter

Unlike basic 5-micron string-wound or surface filters, the included sediment cartridge is a true dual-grade (50/5 micron) depth filter.

• 50 micron outer layer captures larger sediment first

• 5 micron inner layer removes finer particles downstream

• Depth filtration design traps sediment throughout the entire cartridge, not just on the surface

This design allows the filter to:

• Hold significantly more sediment

• Maintain higher flow rates

• Last longer before clogging

• Protect the carbon filter more effectively

The result is better system performance, longer filter life, and fewer pressure drops, especially in water with variable sediment levels.

High-Flow Radial Carbon Filtration

The radial flow carbon cartridge provides excellent reduction of:

• Chlorine taste and odor

• Common chemicals and organic compounds

• Unwanted odors throughout the home

Radial flow design forces water evenly through the carbon media, maximizing contact time while keeping pressure loss low — ideal for whole-house applications where flow matters.

Heavy-Duty Big Blue Housing with Copper Pipe Thread

This system uses copper (NPT) pipe thread connections, not plastic threads commonly found on standard Big Blue housings. That means:

• Stronger, more durable threaded connections

• Better sealing with metal fittings

• Reduced risk of thread damage during installation

The housing itself is very heavy-duty, built for long-term residential or light commercial use.

Why This System Stands Out

• Dual-gradient 50/5 micron depth sediment filtration (not basic string-wound)

• Higher sediment capacity and flow than standard 5-micron filters

• Radial flow carbon for effective chemical reduction with minimal pressure loss

• Copper pipe thread connections for reduced risk of thread damage during installation

• Large 20″ Big Blue format for longer service intervals and fewer filter changes

This system is an excellent choice for homes on city or well water that want robust whole-house filtration, strong flow rates, and components built to last.
