Pre Sediment Water Filters

For systems on 1 inch water mains we recommend including a pre-sediment filter. A pre-sediment filter is a 20 inch housing with a 5 micron filter cartridge that goes on the in-line prior to the LifeSource tank. It is designed to remove physical particulates like sand, dirt, and rust before they reach the carbon filtration bed. Systems with water mains larger than 1 inch do not need pre-sediment filters because they have sufficient water flow to thoroughly flush out the carbon bed. The pre-sediment filter will improve the performance and extend the life of the carbon.

Whole house water filters We are pleased to offer a wide selection of whole house water filters designed specifically to meet the higher water flow rates encountered on a home's main incoming water line. In addition to offering basic systems designed to remove sediment, dirt, and rust particles, we also offer a complete range of whole house water filter packages for the removal of chlorine, chloramine, cysts, VOC's, iron, hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg smell), certain heavy metals, and a wide range of contaminants responsible for bad taste and odors in residential water supplies. We also stock Trojan UVMax and Sterilight ultraviolet (UV) water purifiers which are designed specifically to sterilize residential water to kill bacteria and viruses.
Our whole house systems are designed for high flow rate applications, however, it is always important to note that as with all water treatment applications, the faster you flow water through the system (higher flow rate), the less effective the filter will be. To help you select a system that will provide you with the best possible contaminant removal rates, please note the maximum flow rates specified for each system and select a model that suits your maximum flow rate needs in your home.
