What to check before you order
This page does not say this cartridge works in any particular housing or swaps for any other brand's part. Before ordering, compare these against what you use today:
- Housing length and diameter. This part is 2.5" x 40". Many "40-inch" housings are built for 2.5" (slim) or 4.5" (big) cartridges, so measure, or check the housing label.
- End style and seal. The manufacturer doesn't list end caps or gaskets for this part. If your housing needs a spring seat, a fin end or a gasket, tell us.
- Micron rating and type. 5 micron, rating type not stated. If your spec calls for an absolute rating, say so.
- Media. Polypropylene cord. If your current cartridge uses a different media (for example cotton), flag it so the change is a conscious one.
- Certification. If your spec requires NSF/ANSI 61 or 42, put that in your request.

Where it's used
The manufacturer describes the SWC Series as a cost-effective way to reduce sand, silt, rust, dirt and scale particles. It also says the series suits residential and commercial use on both municipal and well water. (Source: SWC data sheet.) The data sheet also carries this warning: do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
