Pentair Pentek 158110 Traditional Slim Line Filter Housing, 3/8" NPT #5 Under Sink Clear Water Filter Housing with Pressure Relief Button, 5-Inch, Blue

I installed two of these 1/2 size filters under my kitchen sink to filter rust and sediment from my galvanized piping. The particles were accumulating in the plastic filter screens in the faucet, and resulted in a ruined faucet because of the stripped fine gage plastic threads on the faucet aerator and faucet spout. I purchased a new faucet and decided to install two Pentek 3/8" 1/2-height filters in the supply lines to ensure the new faucet would last.. I also installed two ball valves ahead of the filters and purchased 2 brackets to mount the filters on the side of the cabinet. I chose the 3/8" filter housing over the standard 1/4" housing to minimize pressure loss. Two pieces of advice: Purchase a filter wrench and purchase a tube of silicone grease approved for contact with potable water...it'll make maintenance a lot easier.I also laid in a good supply of coarse polypropylene filters (they're cheap).The arrangement has worked wonderfully. Although the filter is not rated for hot water, the filter housing has worked well with 120 degree water. I have been pleased with the quality and performance of the product..

I purchased this about 3 years ago to pre-filter water for the humidifier on the furnace, as I was tired of dealing with a fouled up solenoid valve, screen and water panel so frequently. This turned out to be a great investment. It was incredible to see how much filth was pulled from the municipal water supply and has drastically improved the life of my Aprilaire components! Unless you connect via fittings directly to 1/2" or larger diameter copper line, I recommend the bracket. It's a bit flimsy but helps.

Works good

I just finished re doing the plumbing in our RV and have this House filter located between the city water connection and the rest of the RV. I also have a diverter set up so I can fill our fresh water tank though this filter. It is nice to no longer need to find a place to store an inline filter. So far we have not had any flow issues related to using the filter between the city water connection.

The first one lasted 22 years before the pressure release button started leaking, I probably could have replaced the O-ring in it but a new one was cheap enough to fix the problem. Very well made.

Excellent craftsmanship at a fraction of the price. Keep in mind that Local stores will not sell this because it is a cheaper way to filter a faucet at 2GPM. You would spend $100 just on a filter at ypur local hardware store. This filter housing is high quality as the ones found on a regular 10" filter kit. The clear base is actually very thick and durable like commercial used kits sold by Culligan or EcoLab. The pressure relief button works like a champ. You do not need a wrench, hand tight until you cant turn is enough. Water pressure will prevent leak with Oring included. I use a pentek 0.05micron filter and it pumps 2.0gpm on kitchen sink with no problem.

I switched my older solid brown colored canister with the clear bottom part of this newer model so I can see and visually monitor the accumulation of any sediment or debris inside. It fit and screwed on perfectly to my existing 10 year old set up under my sink ! Very solid and well made, glad I made the switch,I now feel more safe being able to see what I am drinking. Highly recommended ! Review edit - Its been several months with my new clear canister filter and have experienced a total failure with this product which includes a terrible flood costing me thousands in damage. I did not realize how much more fragile the clear type is compared to the solid colored type. A late night crack formed when everyone was sleeping and awoke to a total flood with seeping water thru the ceiling destroying my basement ! Beware of this product ,it could happen to you with no warning.

I used this for a dessicate system for paint. Works well

It is what it said it was fit like a glove and worked as a replacement for the culligan filter

bonne qualité

According to a Google search, this was supposed to be a direct replacement for an obsolete product that came with my camper trailer. Although it wasn’t terribly difficult to install, the inlet & outlet is smaller than the unit it replaced. Therefore, in order to make it work for my system, I had to go to my a couple of big-box home improvement stores to find an assortment of couplers to jerry-rig something to fit.

Exactly what I was looking for, for my 26 foot Tollycraft
