Pentair 150238 Big Blue Filter Housing 10 Inch Single Port

Product Description

The PENTAIR 150238 is a Big Blue whole-house filter housing designed for high-flow and heavy-sediment filtration applications. The single-port housing accepts standard 10 x 4.5 inch filter cartridges, providing the extra-large sump volume needed to reduce pressure drop and extend service intervals in demanding water treatment systems. The sump body is constructed from reinforced polypropylene, offering broad chemical compatibility and resistance to the mechanical stress common in commercial and residential point-of-entry installations. Licensed plumbers and water treatment technicians are the primary installers of this housing in residential and light commercial service lines.

This housing is suited for point-of-entry residential installations, light commercial water treatment systems, and anywhere high-flow sediment or particulate filtration is required. The oversized 4.5 inch cartridge diameter allows for greater media volume per vessel, which means fewer housings are needed to achieve target flow rates compared to standard 2.5 inch cartridge systems. It is a common choice for whole-house sediment pre-filtration, well water systems, and irrigation supply lines where high-volume throughput is a priority.
