Two sediment cartridge options are available - Spun and Pleated.
Spun cartridges are usually used for economy, and in domestic applications with light and very fine sediment are ideal, usually lasting about six months each. Pleated cartridges are slightly more expensive, but have the benefit of being washable - This means for areas with heavy sediment you can remove the filter periodically, wash it down, and then reinstall it - However, this procedure can only be done a few times before the fabric wear will eventually lead to it having to be replaced.
In general for applications with light sediment on mains water, then Spun cartridges are preferred. For heavy sediment and well water, pleated filters probably are a better choice.
Features:
- 1" or 1½" BSP threaded connectors

- Available in 10" (heavy duty) or 20" (very heavy duty) models
- Ideal for industrial applications

Installation - basically it needs plumbing in somewhere close to where your water enters the property if you are going to filter your entire house. Typically, it can be installed using common compression fittings to 15mm or 22mm pipework without too much trouble, however, if you have no plumbing experience you may require assistance for the initial installation (changing cartridges is very simple and can be done yourself). The system should, in the vast majority of cases, take between 30 to 60 minutes to install in case you need to obtain a quotation from a local plumber.
