Description
WSP Whole House Sediment Filter from Water Softener Plus (WSP) is designed to help reduce sediment, sand, grit, and cloudy water throughout your home or facility. With a high flow capacity and built-in features to protect your plumbing, it quietly saves you money by preventing wear on appliances and reducing cleaning tasks.
Hidden Costs of Sediment in Your Water
Every day, tiny particles of sand, grit, and sediment pass through your water pipes, settling on heating elements and inside appliances. This buildup forces your water heater to use more energy and shortens its lifespan. Washing machines and dishwashers work harder as dirt clogs their filters and nozzles. Over time, you add more detergent to get clothes and dishes truly clean, and you spend extra time scrubbing cloudy spots from glassware and shower doors. These inconveniences add up quietly but steadily.
How the Control Head Manages Sediment Removal
The WSP Whole House Sediment Filter uses an automatic backwash cycle that lifts and rinses the sediment bed inside the tank. This process flushes collected particles out through a drain line using the included 10 feet of discharge hose. The control head’s 1.5-inch porting supports high flow rates, making sure your water doesn’t slow down even during cleaning cycles. Inside, an internal swirl chamber combined with a diverting plate separates heavier particles by centrifugal action and gravity, sending them to the bottom of the tank for removal during backwash. You set the control head to run backwashes as needed, saving water and energy by only cleaning when necessary.
Why the Sediment Media Works for Grit and Cloudiness
Inside the tank is a graded sediment bed designed specifically to trap sand, silt, and other gritty particles. This media slows down water just enough to let heavier sediments settle out before the water continues through your plumbing. That means less abrasive sediment reaching your water heater, faucets, and appliances. The media suits homes and light-commercial properties where sediment can cause serious wear and cloudiness.
The Tank’s Role and What Capacity Means for You
The sediment filter’s pressure vessel is a durable tank sized to handle up to 65 gallons per minute flow. This high capacity supports large homes or light-commercial buildings with several bathrooms or multiple water-using appliances running at once. We confirm the exact tank size when sizing your system to match your household’s demand. The included bypass valve allows continuous water flow to your home during maintenance without disruption.
Who Benefits Most from This Sediment Filter
This system fits well in homes or businesses that experience sediment, sand, shale, or oxidized organics in their water supply. It is especially suited to larger properties or those with higher water flow needs. If you have a smaller home or less water use, a smaller sediment filter might be more efficient. For heavy industrial use beyond typical household and light-commercial flow, discuss your needs with our team.

Who this size is right for
This is rated for roughly 65 gallons per minute of service flow, which suits a large or light-commercial property.
The number to match is peak simultaneous demand, not average use. Two showers and a dishwasher at once is the moment that finds an undersized unit, so size for that.
