Application & System Fit
The AF-10-3310 fits all standard 10-inch filter housings with 2.5-inch cartridge capacity. Ideal for reverse osmosis pretreatment to protect membranes from chlorine damage and scale buildup, as well as whole-house applications in hard water areas. The phosphate media sequesters calcium and magnesium to prevent scale formation on heating elements, fixtures, and appliances. Replace every 6-12 months depending on water hardness, chlorine levels, and flow rates. Monitor for reduced flow or return of chlorine taste as indicators for replacement.
