Product Resources
Features & Details
Protect your home's plumbing, fixtures, and water treatment equipment with the Pentair DGD-5005 Dual Gradient Sediment Filter. Designed for high-flow whole-house filtration systems, this premium cartridge removes a wide range of sediment—from larger particles like sand and rust to finer debris that can reduce water quality and damage downstream equipment.
The unique dual-gradient design uses a 50-micron outer layer to capture larger particles first, while the 5-micron inner core traps finer sediment. This staged filtration helps maximize dirt-holding capacity, extend filter life, and maintain strong water flow.
