Did you know though that removing sediment can also help your wallet in the long run? Sediment build-up in your water system can lead to damage to different aspects of the system over time and cost you unexpected money. One part of your system that can be harmed by sediment build-up is your hot water heater. Installing a Rusco spin-down filter will enhance performance as well as lengthen the life of your hot water heater—saving you money!
When it comes to a Rusco filter, there are a few things you’ll want to consider before implementing one into your system. Determining what size filter you’ll need based on the inlet and outlet, as well as factoring in the number of GPM running through your system is something that should be taken into consideration. You’ll also want to know whether or not the filter is needed for hot water or cold water application. Depending on where the filter will be placed within your system, you may need to select one that doesn’t have a T-body and instead select an option with an L-body or a combo body. Figuring out what micron size you need for your filter screen is also something important to consider.
A chemical-resistant cover is also plastic and see-through and has a yellowish tint instead of being clear. This particular cover comes standard on hot water filters designed to withstand water temperatures of up to 220 degrees Fahrenheit. These covers can also withstand different chemical elements that the standard spin-down or sediment trapper filter cannot filter without chemical corrosion.
