Aqua-Pure AP902 Water Filter System, Whole House, 20 gpm
The Aqua-Pure® Water Filter System AP902 helps to reduce sediment down to 5 micron nominal, while providing unrestricted flow with 1" NPT connections.  In doing so, the filter helps provide more appealing drinking water and protect appliances and fixtures against staining and mineral buildup.The AP902 water filter system is manufactured by 3M Purification Inc., formerly CUNO Incorporated. The non-corrosive 304 stainless steel head allows for "sweat in place" installation, and 1” NPT connections with 1” center cores provide unrestricted flow. A high flow rate (20 gallons/75.7 liters per minute) meets the needs of typical larger homes and light commercial applications. Change-outs of replacement cartridges require no tools, and the sanitary design prevents contact with filter media. The filter is rated for chlorine taste and odor reduction at 20 gallons (75.7 liters) per minute and 5-micron particulate reduction. It is pressure-rated for up to 125 psi. The unit is 25-1/16” (63.7 cm) high (incl. bracket) and 4-1/5” (11.4 cm) in diameter. It meets NSF Standard 42 for particulate filtration and is appropriate for well-water particulate reduction.A well or city water system may provide your house with more than water—contaminants. Whole-house water treatment systems, ranging from simple canisters with disposable filter cartridges to complex systems of tanks and filters, reduce contaminants. Whole-house systems are typically positioned immediately after water meters and well pumps, and thus may be referred to as point-of-entry (POE) systems. Depending on the filtration and treatment processes, they reduce iron, particulate, chlorine odor and taste, and other contaminants. In doing so, they help protect plumbing and fixtures, reduce unpleasant tastes, colors and odors. Regular maintenance of a whole-house water filter system may be as simple as replacing a filtration cartridge every six months, or may involve an annual service call. The initial expense of a whole-house water filter system often pays off in the long term, as it helps protect pipes and fixtures from iron and/or hard water deposits and discoloration and provide savings in bottled water costs.For more than a century, 3M has applied innovation and technology to improving our customers’ lives and supporting their business goals.
