How It Works
The Nelsen Dirt Cartridge functions as a critical barrier within your water filtration system, trapping suspended solids and fine sediment particles as water passes through its pleated filter media. Its 0.35 micron rating ensures even microscopic dirt is captured, preventing clogging and damage to sensitive components downstream.
Installed inside a standard filter housing, the cartridge allows water to flow through multiple layers of tightly pleated material, maximizing filtration efficiency without compromising flow rate. This process helps maintain the cleanliness of your water supply and protects your entire water treatment setup.
What to Expect
Once installed, you will notice clearer water free from visible debris almost immediately. In the first days and weeks, the cartridge will efficiently trap sediment, reducing the frequency of system flushes or repairs. Over time, the durable pleated design maintains filtration performance, requiring replacement only when flow rate noticeably decreases or manufacturer guidelines advise.
Regular replacement helps ensure your water softener and plumbing system continue functioning optimally, preventing sediment-related issues and extending overall equipment life.
