Upgrade your home water filtration with our High-Quality Washable Pleated Sediment Filter.

It is 100% certified BPA-free and made from strictly food-grade materials, ensuring absolutely no unwanted rubber taste or synthetic odor enters your family's water supply.

Why You'll Love It

✅ Washable & Reusable: The pleated design allows you to easily remove, wash, and reuse the filter, extending its lifespan for up to 12 months for massive cost savings.
✅ Heavy Sediment Defense: Features an extra-large surface area designed specifically to handle murky, high-sediment water without affecting your home's water pressure.
✅ Customizable Purification: Available in 1 Micron, 5 Micron, 5 Micron Antibacterial, and 20 Micron ratings so you can tailor your filtration to your exact needs.

Built for Drinking Water, Not Pools

Many pleated filters on the market are secretly designed for industrial use or swimming pools, which can leach chemical tastes into your kitchen tap. Our washable sediment filter is strictly food-grade. By utilizing a high-performance pleated design, it maximizes the surface area exposed to your water, capturing massive amounts of dirt, rust, and debris while maintaining a highly efficient, steady water flow.

Micron Rating Guide

Choosing the Right Filter

1 Micron Filter: Ideal for fine sediment, including cysts, rust, and microscopic debris. Perfect for households that require the absolute highest level of filtration for drinking water clarity.

5 Micron Filter: Removes fine sand, dirt, and silt, ensuring cleaner water without clogging as quickly as a 1-micron filter. Great for general, everyday household water filtration needs.

5 Micron Antibacterial Filter: Offers the exact same fine sediment filtration as the standard 5-micron model, but with added antibacterial properties to prevent bacterial growth inside the cartridge itself. Ideal for homes concerned about microbial contamination.

20 Micron Filter: Captures larger particles like dust, rust flakes, and heavy sediment. This makes it the perfect pre-filter to place before finer filters, or for rural areas with exceptionally heavy sediment in the water supply.

Washing & Maintenance

How to Clean: When you notice a drop in your home's water pressure, simply remove the pleated filter from its housing. Gently rinse the pleats under cold running water or with a standard garden hose to dislodge the trapped dirt and sediment. Do not use high-pressure washers or stiff brushes, as this can tear the food-grade filtration material.

Replacement: While washing extends the life of this filter considerably, for optimal drinking water safety, we recommend completely replacing the cartridge every 12 months, or sooner if the pleats become damaged or heavily stained.

Common Questions

Can I use a pool filter for my drinking water?

No. Pool filters are strictly for industrial or recreational use and can leach unwanted rubber tastes or chemicals into your water. Our washable pleated filters are 100% BPA-free and made from certified food-grade materials specifically for safe drinking water.

Which micron rating should I choose?

If you have very muddy or heavy sediment water, start with a 20-micron filter to catch the large debris. For general household use, the 5-micron is perfect. If you want the absolute clearest drinking water and protection against microscopic cysts, choose the 1-micron filter.

How often should I wash this filter?

This depends entirely on your local water quality. We recommend checking and gently rinsing the filter every 2 to 3 months, or whenever you notice a slight drop in your home's water pressure. The filter itself should be fully replaced after 12 months of use.
