## Overview

The Pentair Pentek DGD-5005-20 is a 20-inch whole house sediment filter cartridge featuring dual-gradient density spun polypropylene construction. It delivers 5-micron filtration with 3X the dirt holding capacity of comparable filters, ensuring superior removal of dirt, sand, and silt without affecting water taste or odor. Certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 42, it fits all standard 20-inch Big Blue housings and is designed for easy replacement every six months, making it a trusted choice for residential and commercial water purification.

## Description

DGD Series Cartridges are manufactured from 100% pure polypropylene and are sized for use in Pentair Pentek Big Blue Filter Housings. DGD Series Cartridges are designed for purity and will not impart taste, odor or color to the liquid being filtered. Additionally, the polypropylene construction provides superior chemical resistance. The DGD Series' advanced design combines selective final filtration with appropriate pre-filtration to achieve up to three times the dirt holding capacity of similar size sediment cartridges and even greater capacity than standard spun or string-wound cartridges. The larger diameter of the filter reduces the particle load, allowing it to operate at higher velocities. The effective filter depth is increased to a full 233%. This increased depth provides very high particulate reduction efficiencies and added loading capacity. The design and performance characteristics of the DGD Series Cartridges make them an excellent choice for all residential, rural, municipal and commercial applications.

Review: Every Day Use Just Have to Clean it Every 6 months - I use this filter for a small house and also for irrigation. It does a good job catching dirt and debris before it gets into the system. The filter gets dirty but the water stays clean. I usually clean it or change it about every six months depending on how dirty the water is. It has been working well so far and seems like good quality.
Review: If you have the big blue 20 inch this is what you need. - Worked exactly as expected and good value for what it does. Fit the big blue water filter housing perfectly.
