Key Benefits

• Prevents leaks by providing a tight, secure seal in your filter housing
• Enhances system reliability by maintaining consistent pressure and flow
• Durable material resists wear, prolonging the lifespan of your filtration setup
• Easy to install, minimizing downtime during maintenance or cartridge changes
• Compatible with standard Big Blue filter housings, ensuring a perfect fit
• Helps maintain water quality by preventing contamination from external elements

How It Works

The AM151122 Pentek O-Ring fits snugly inside the groove of your Big Blue filter housing, creating a watertight seal between the housing cap and body. This prevents water from leaking out during the filtration process, which is essential for maintaining proper system pressure and efficiency. By sealing the filter housing effectively, the O-ring also keeps contaminants from bypassing the filter cartridge, ensuring that your water treatment system delivers clean, safe water consistently.

Made from resilient materials designed to withstand water pressure and temperature fluctuations, the O-ring maintains its shape and sealing ability over time. This means fewer maintenance interruptions and a longer-lasting filtration system.

What to Expect

Once installed, you will immediately notice a secure fit with no leaks around your Big Blue filter housing. During the first days and weeks, the O-ring will settle into place, ensuring a consistent seal as the system operates under normal pressure conditions.

Over the longer term, you can expect reliable performance with minimal maintenance. Periodic inspection and replacement of the O-ring during routine filter changes will help sustain optimal sealing and prevent potential leaks, protecting your water softener or filtration system from damage.
