NWS 10x44 Filter Unit w/ Bypass

This is the parcel-ready version of the NWS 10x44 Filter Unit with Bypass, alternate part NWTS-AFB-10-UPS, specially packaged for parcel truck delivery so it arrives safely without the cost and scheduling of freight handling. Functionally it is the same backwash-only filtration platform from Nelsen Water Treatment Solutions, giving installers a complete tank-and-valve assembly that waits only for the media and plumbing connections you choose to add. The parcel packaging makes receiving simple for homes and shops that would rather not deal with a freight appointment.

• Packaged for parcel truck delivery for convenient shipping
• Nelsen 1" three-cycle backwash filter valve
• Bypass valve for simple maintenance isolation
• 10x44 black polyglass mineral tank
• Basket distributor and gravel underbed included
• Order filter media and plumbing connections separately

A backwash filter keeps itself clean by periodically reversing flow to fluidize and rinse the media bed, carrying accumulated debris and contaminants to the drain and renewing the filter's capacity on an automatic schedule. The three-cycle valve manages the service, backwash, and rinse stages so the system maintains its performance with minimal attention from the homeowner, making this an easy system to live with once it is dialed in. Because the cleaning happens on its own, day-to-day involvement is limited mostly to occasional checks and eventual media replacement.

Putting it to work

Because the unit ships without media, you decide exactly what it does. Carbon handles chlorine taste and odor, sediment media tackles turbidity, and specialty media can address iron or pH problems, so a single hardware platform can be configured for many different water issues. Match your chosen media to the 10x44 tank volume, program the valve cycle times for your specific water conditions and household usage, and provide a suitable drain for the backwash discharge. At roughly 33 lbs, this parcel-friendly configuration is an approachable, easy-to-receive starting point for building a custom whole-house filter, well suited to smaller homes and lower-flow situations where the 10x44 capacity is the right fit. Easy to receive and ready to configure, this parcel-friendly 10x44 unit lets smaller households build exactly the filter their water calls for without the hassle of freight delivery.
