The Pentair Pentek DGD-2501-20 is made for the Pentair Pentek Big Blue Filter Housings and will fit into any "Big Blue" style filter housing. DGD Series Sediment Filters feature high dirt-holding capacity compared to similar size sediment filters. These filters will reduce sediment particles as small as 1 micron without imparting taste, odor, or color to your water and are chemically and bacterially resistant due to their pure polypropylene construction.
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 8 reviews.

"Works great for our system!"
"Always helpful - great staff"
"Very happy with this product. The price is great. When my water pressure decreases, I know it's time for a new filter."
"the -2501-20 4.5x20" this big blue dual grade poly sediment filteris the best!!!"

Q:
What does the Pentair DGD-2501-20 / 155360-43 reduce?
A:
It reduces sand, silt, rust, dirt, and other suspended particles down to a nominal 1-micron level. It does not replace a carbon cartridge or RO membrane because it is designed for particulate filtration.
Q:
What housing or systems accept the Pentair DGD-2501-20 / 155360-43?
A:
The catalog lists 10,000 GPD De-Chlorinator (738322). Check the exact model or part number on the existing equipment before ordering Pentair DGD-2501-20 / 155360-43. The cartridge size is 4.5-by-20-inch Big Blue, so the housing must also match that format.
Q:
How does the depth-loading polypropylene design help?
A:
The media captures larger particles toward the outside and progressively finer particles deeper in the cartridge. This provides useful dirt-holding capacity while helping maintain flow.
Q:
How often should this sediment filter be changed?
A:
A typical interval is 3 to 12 months, but source-water sediment, water use, and pressure drop determine actual life. Replace it sooner if flow declines or the cartridge becomes heavily loaded.
Q:
Can the Pentair DGD-2501-20 / 155360-43 be used before an RO or UV system?
A:
Yes, when the size and micron rating match the equipment. Sediment pre-filtration helps limit particle loading on downstream filters, membranes, and UV chambers.
Q:
How do I know whether 1 microns is the right rating?
A:
Choose the rating specified by the equipment manufacturer. A finer cartridge captures smaller particles but may load sooner, so do not substitute a different micron rating without confirming acceptable flow and pressure drop.
