Washable Plastic Filter with Siliphos 2 in 1
50 - 70 micron polyester mesh + siliphos (polyphosphate) fill · Double open end (DOE) · 5" / 10" / 20"
Dual-function filter combining a washable polyester mesh cartridge and siliphos (polyphosphate) crystals in one body. The mesh retains sand, sediment and particles at 50 - 70 micron, while the siliphos crystals inside the cartridge dissolve slowly in the water and reduce the adhesion and build-up of limescale (Ca and Mg ions) and carbonates on surfaces.

Maintenance and Cleaning
- Shut off the water supply and relieve the pressure in the housing.
- Open the housing, remove the cartridge and check the amount of siliphos.
- Clean the cartridge under running water with a soft brush, from the outside in.
- If the siliphos is low, open the end cap, top up the crystals and refit the cap.
- Refit the cartridge, slowly reopen the water supply and check for leaks.
Washing frequency depends on water quality, dirt load and usage; wash the cartridge when a noticeable drop in flow occurs. Do not use on hot water lines (above 45 °C); install the filter on the cold water inlet of the water heater. Do not use solvents or harsh chemicals. Replace the cartridge if the mesh is torn or the frame is deformed.
