Use Cases

Support installation and routine filter service

Residential plastic housings are intended for water filtration installations, while the high-flow housing is designed for industrial water-filtration systems. A dedicated wrench helps maintenance teams loosen and secure compatible housings during filter service.

How to Choose

Match the housing to the system connection and application

Compare the required port size first: available residential options have either a 1/2-inch or 3/8-inch port. Then consider whether a 10-inch residential housing or an industrial high-flow housing better fits the application.

Applications

Residential treatment through industrial water filtration

The 10-inch plastic models are designed for residential water filtration applications. The industrial high-flow option is suited to commercial water-treatment work where chemical compatibility or seawater service is a consideration.
