Builders Inline Filter - Black (25 Mm / 1 Inch) - 130 Micron Sediment Removal, Irrigation and Pump Protection, Easy Clean

Protect Your Plumbing: The Builders Inline Filter

 

Ensure the longevity and efficiency of your entire water system with the Builders Inline Filter - Black (25 mm). This robust, reusable filter is installed directly into your water pipeline (inline) to act as a crucial pre-filter.

With a filtration rating of 130 microns (approximately 0.13 mm), it is specifically designed to effectively screen out large sediment and debris such as sand, grit, silt, and rust particles. This level of filtration is essential for:

• Protecting Pumps and Valves: Prevents abrasion and damage to moving parts in irrigation pumps, submersible pumps, and solenoid valves.

• Rainwater Harvesting: Filters leaf debris and large sediment before water enters the storage tank or a pressure pump.

• Preventing Clogging: Keeps pipes, drip emitters, and sprinkler heads free from blockages, ensuring uniform water distribution.

Its durable black plastic construction and standard 25 mm (1 inch) threaded connections make it easy to integrate into most standard plumbing and irrigation systems.

   Key Benefits

• Effective Sediment Control: 130 micron rating efficiently filters large debris, sand, and grit.

• Equipment Protection: Extends the lifespan of pumps, valves, and irrigation emitters.

• Standard Size: 25 mm (1 inch) connections for easy integration into main lines.

• Durable: Constructed from robust, UV-resistant black plastic, suitable for outdoor/irrigation use.

• Reusable Element: The filter element (usually disc or screen) can be removed and cleaned, reducing running costs.

  Top 3 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. How do I clean the filter?

   • The filter housing can be unscrewed, and the internal screen or disc element can be removed, washed under running water (a soft brush can help remove stubborn sediment), and then reinstalled.

2. Does this filter need replacement cartridges?

   • No, the filter element is typically designed to be reusable and washable. It should only need replacement if the screen or disc itself is physically damaged.

3. Can this filter be used for drinking water?

   • This 130 micron filter is a coarse pre-filter designed for protecting equipment. It is not suitable for purifying water for drinking or bathing, as it does not remove fine silt, chemicals (like chlorine), bacteria, or viruses. You must use a separate finer filter (like a carbon block or UF system) for potable water.
