The ACE Big Blue Whole House Water Filter System is engineered to provide comprehensive, point-of-entry water filtration for residential properties. It is designed to intercept water before it reaches individual taps, systematically reducing dirt, bacteria, chlorine, and other suspended contaminants.

This system is highly adaptable and processes water efficiently from a variety of supply points. It is fully compatible with municipal town water, as well as private dam, tank, and bore water sources.

System Capabilities & Specifications

Constructed from high-quality, NSF-certified food-grade materials, the Big Blue system is built to handle the demands of a modern household without compromising water pressure.

High-Flow Performance: Capable of processing up to 60 liters per minute (tested over 100L/min) to prevent noticeable pressure drops across the home.
Hardware Durability: Equipped with robust 1-inch brass ports designed to safely withstand high residential water pressure.
Installation Components: The unit includes a heavy-duty metal mounting bracket and a dedicated spanner wrench to facilitate straightforward installation and maintenance.

Maintenance Note: To ensure optimal filtration performance and continuous flow rates, the internal cartridges should be replaced approximately every 12 months. Compatible replacements can be found in our water filters collection.

Advanced Two-Stage Filtration Process

The system utilizes a sequential, two-stage filtration method to address different types of waterborne particulates and chemical contaminants.

Stage 1: 5-Micron Sediment Filtration

The initial filtration stage serves as a physical barrier against larger suspended particles. It effectively traps dirt, rust, algae, and sand, which protects internal household plumbing and extends the lifespan of water-using appliances by preventing sediment buildup.

Stage 2: 5-Micron Carbon Block Filtration

The second stage employs a premium, eco-friendly coconut-shell carbon block to chemically refine the water. This filter is engineered to eliminate over 90% of free chlorine while significantly reducing odors, turbidity, and organic matter down to 0.5 microns.

Cartridge Compatibility

The Big Blue system utilizes standard 10” x 4.5” filter cartridges. This universal sizing ensures that finding replacement parts remains convenient and cost-effective over the lifespan of the unit.
