How does a Big Blue water filter housing work?


A Big Blue filter housing holds big filter cartridges. Other manufacturers don't describe their large diameter filter housings as Big Blue. Any term for large diameter housings refers to housings that operate the same way. Water enters one end and goes down through the housing. Depending on what type of filter cartridge you have, water might flow through the filter and then out, or it might go all the way to the bottom and flow up through the media in the drop-in cartridge. You can put a variety of filter cartridges inside a housing depending on what you're trying to filter out.

Water Flow In The Filter Housing





How do you install a Big Blue filter housing?


The Big Blue housing cap inlet and outlet requires 1" male fittings and depending on your plumbing pipe sizes, you may need to use a reducer to fit the pipe size. When you're installing the filter and housing and you have an inch and a half plumbing, make sure the cap measures an inch and a half because you never want to reduce the size from your plumbing size.

If you're using your Big Blue housing commercially, just connect the water into it. The cap has an in and an out. The IN is the feed side. The OUT is the filtered side. Make sure the in and out are lined up properly since the filter housing doesn't come on a mounting bracket. Then install your mounting bracket on to hand the filter housing on the wall.

How often should you change a Big Blue filter housing?


Every 10 years.

Big Blue filter housings are dependable and last a long time. The manufacturer suggests that you replace it every 10 years. If the housing's been in place for 10 years, you probably should replace it. Every time you turn a faucet off while water is flowing through this filter housing, water hammering occurs. This means the inertia of the water flow stops with a force of energy. Many times water hammering causes the housing to move or flex. Eventually, the plastic could get tired of flexing and start to crack. Housings with clear sumps (body) don't flex like the blue ones or the white ones or the black ones. Clear filter housings use a different plastic blend that doesn't flex as well, so it cracks and fails much sooner than the polypropylene colored ones. We recommend you change a clear filter housing at least every five years so that you don't end up with a catastrophic failure where the housing cracks and water floods.
