El Pentair Pentek EPM-20 BB es parte de los bloques de carbón de la serie EPM que son capaces de filtrar partículas tan pequeñas como 10 micrones y al mismo tiempo reducir el cloro, el sabor y el olor. La alta porosidad de estos bloques de carbón también garantiza una baja caída de presión y una obstrucción mínima del cartucho, junto con una envoltura exterior para aumentar significativamente la vida útil al evitar la obstrucción del bloque de carbón.

"Well pleased with this filler. Along with the sediment filter we get good tasting water."
"Works Great!"
"Excellent filter and service.Thanks Again"
"Came quickly exactly as expected quality for our custom boiler system"
"This is a great whole house filter. But when offered for sale you might want to also include the rubber gasket seal that goes with it. I have found that the seal breaks down over time."
"We have been purchasing all our filters from ESP. The products arrive on time and the customer service is great."
"Bought two of these. But only received one. Paid freight and tax for two. Tried contacting support, but they newer reply to my mails."
"I ordered on line and the product was received within a few days."
"The Pentair EPM-20 BB 4.5"x20" 10 Mic filter protects my home's Reverse Osmotic Filter from clogging and forcing and expensive service call. This is the second year I've used them and the ROS is still clear and functional!"
"no oder now in my water now"
Q:
What does the Pentair EPM-20 BB / 155783-43 reduce?
A:
It is designed to reduce chlorine taste and odor plus sediment with a high-porosity design intended for relatively low pressure drop while filtering particles to a nominal 10-micron level under the manufacturer’s stated conditions.
Q:
Which housings or systems use the Pentair EPM-20 BB / 155783-43?
A:
The catalog lists: EPM-20, UVBB-3, UVMax IHS12-D4. Confirm the exact model and part number on your equipment before ordering Pentair EPM-20 BB / 155783-43. Its nominal size is 4.5-by-20-inch Big Blue.
Q:
How is this different from a sediment-only cartridge?
A:
Carbon adsorbs chlorine taste and odor and any specifically listed substances; a sediment-only filter mainly captures particles.
Q:
How often should it be replaced?
A:
A common interval is 6 to 12 months, but water use, contaminant loading, and pressure drop determine actual life. Replace it sooner if flow falls or taste and odor return.
Q:
Does a new carbon filter need to be flushed?
A:
Yes. Flush it according to the system instructions until loose carbon fines are cleared, then inspect the housing or fittings for leaks.
Q:
Can I substitute any 4.5-by-20-inch Big Blue carbon filter?
A:
No. Match the part number, micron rating, carbon formulation, treatment claims, required flow, and approved equipment fit.
