Pre Filter Cartridge - 12400006
✅ Why Use a Pre‑Filter?
Protect downstream filters (carbon block, RO membrane, UV/UF stages).
Reduce clogging—extends life of costly filters like RO membranes and carbon blocks, improving system longevity and lowering overall maintenance costs

Particularly helpful if water supply contains rust, sand, or heavy sediment.
🛠 Installation Considerations & Tips
Always match cartridge size (length, diameter, connection size) with your housing.
Material selection: Spun PP is standard; pleated filters for higher flow and dirt load.
Micron choice:
Use finer (1–5 µm) if feed water is very dirty.
Consider coarse (10–20 µm) as a pre‑sediment stage to extend lifespan of finer filters downstream — e.g. coarse → spun → carbon/RO.
Maintenance: Monitor pressure drop or visible dirt. Replace when discolored through to core or flow slows significantly (Reddit advice: should still see a white halo visible inside; otherwise replace)
