It carries a nominal 5 micron rating, handles temperatures to 145Β°F, and is tested and certified by NSF International to NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for material requirements. This six-pack keeps spares on hand; replace about every 6 months, or sooner when you notice reduced flow or water quality. Review: Pentair Pentek DGD-5005-20 Big Blue Water Filter, 20-Inch Whole House Sediment Filter - Been using the Pentek DGD-5005-20 in my Big Blue housing for a few years now and it's doing exactly what I need. The dual-gradient density design does a great job catching sediment progressively β€” coarser stuff up front, finer particles as water moves through β€” so it doesn't clog as fast as the cheaper single-layer filters I tried before. Water pressure has stayed strong. Fit was perfect in my standard 20-inch Big Blue housing, no issues there. Installation was straightforward, and it seems well-built for the price. I'm planning to just keep a few spares on hand for swaps every few months depending on usage. Great value if you're dealing with sediment, rust flecks, or dirt in your water supply. Would recommend to anyone with a whole-house filtration setup Review: Work as expected. - These work well for me. Seems to remove a lot of the soluble iron. These are made in China and for a simple dual gradient wound cartridge I am ok with it. For my carbon block I buy the Pentek series made in Dover, NH, USA and the price of those is reflected accordingly. ## Features - KEEP YOUR WATER CLEANER - Reduces dirt, sand, silt, rust and other sediment to help protect your appliances, plumbing and downstream filters.
