This 5-micron alternative to a whole-house water filter is made of high-density food-grade stainless steel to prevent charcoal powder from entering the filtered water. No odor, no leakage, no secondary pollution, to provide you with a healthy, happy and safe water filtration experience. The 5 micron is currently the most popular filter. Compared with the high micron filter, it achieves a balance of sufficient removal of residual chlorine and high water flux. The filter can capture particles of 5 microns or larger from municipal or well water, with a large water flow, without hindering the water pressure too much. This type of water filter is ideal for supplying water to the whole house and also protects household appliances such as water dispensers, coffee makers, dishwashers, washing machines and water pipes, shower accessories, and kitchen faucets from sediment and scale.
