(More customer reviews)If you're on well water, this is one product that you really should have--whether or not you have a water softener system, and whether or not you have a chlorine tank.
The RUSCO Spin Down Sediment Filter WITH SEDIMENT TRAP, when immediately installed after your well tank and before anything else in your home, serves as a first filtering system for sediment and other particles that are in deep well water systems. (Keep in mind that the deep well pump that is in the ground sucks up water and anything else that is down there.)
Make sure you get the model that includes the SEDIMENT TRAP which, as it states, traps sediment that is spun down from the top of the system, and traps it there so it will not go back up and clog the filter screen, which may reduce water pressure level and diminish the effectiveness of your spin down filter.
Also, the 3/4" size may first appear to be too large for 3/4" CPVC, but it is not. After priming, use a heavy layer of glue to secure your CPVC in two places on the Spin Down Filter: In the InFlow hole, and the Outflow hole of the Spin Down Filter. Allow this thick layer of gluing to stay in place and undisturbed for at least 24 hours to fully cure so that it will be operational when you do the final install and ready sooner for full water pressure. (Excuse the terminology, I did the work myself but I am not a professional plumber. I was blessed to serve as the general construction manager for a new church, and two new homes. So I learned some things--especially not to get screwed over by some guys in the building construction trades.)

Take Care!
