Water treatment planning tool
Build the right filter train.
Match housing size, cartridge type, and treatment stages to the water you have, the flow you need, and the problem you are trying to solve.

Large-diameter housings keep a whole-property treatment train serviceable without forcing the full system through a small cartridge.
Cartridge schedule
What goes in each housing
Install from coarse to fine so the least expensive, easiest-to-service stage protects everything downstream.
One result needs a different treatment process.
Cartridge filtration does not reliably remove hardness or most dissolved iron, manganese, salts, or sulfur. Use a laboratory water test to size softening, oxidation, aeration, or other specialty treatment.
Why the sequence matters
Do each job once, in the right order.
- 01
Catch the big material first
A coarse pleated cartridge or pre-filter protects finer media from loading prematurely and preserves flow.
- 02
Polish suspended particles
A depth cartridge captures progressively finer sediment and creates better conditions for carbon or disinfection.
- 03
Treat taste and dissolved organics
Carbon can improve taste, odor, chlorine, and certain organics, but it is not a universal contaminant-removal step.
- 04
Disinfect after filtration
When microbial control is required, validated UV or another disinfection barrier belongs downstream of turbidity reduction.
