How to Install Your Hytrex Filter
- Shut off water supply and relieve system pressure before opening the filter housing
- Remove the old cartridge and clean the housing sump with a mild bleach solution, then rinse thoroughly
- Insert the new Hytrex filter cartridge, ensuring the end caps seat properly in the housing
- Lubricate the O-ring with food-grade silicone grease and hand-tighten the housing securely
- Turn water supply on slowly, check for leaks, and flush the filter for 3-5 minutes before use
Housing & System Fit
The SUEZ Hytrex 40" x 2.5" filter fits proprietary long-length filter housings designed for commercial, industrial, and oil and gas applications. This series is compatible with SUEZ (GE Osmonics) housings and select third-party 40-inch housings that accept 2.5-inch diameter cartridges. The graded density structure and high void volume make it ideal for high-flow whole-house systems and as pre-filtration for reverse osmosis systems where sediment, dirt, rust, and hydrocarbon capture are critical.
