Ideal for residential and commercial use, this 2-pack offers long-lasting, high-flow filtration with minimal pressure drop.

## Description

DGD Series Cartridges are manufactured from 100% pure polypropylene and are sized for use in Pentair Pentek Big Blue Filter Housings. DGD Series Cartridges are designed for purity and will not impart taste, odor or color to the liquid being filtered. Additionally, the polypropylene construction provides superior chemical compatibility.The DGD Series advanced design combines selective final filtration with appropriate pre-filtration to achieve up to three times the dirt holding capacity of similar size sediment cartridges and even greater capacity than standard spun or string-wound cartridges. The larger diameter of the filter reduces the particle load, allowing it to operate at higher velocities. The effective filter depth is increased to a full 233%, providing very high particulate reduction efficiencies and added loading capacity.The design and performance characteristics of the DGD Series Cartridges make them an excellent choice for all residential, rural, municipal, and commercial applications. This 2-pack of DGD-2501-20 cartridges provides 1 micron filtration in the 20" x 4.5" Big Blue format.

Review: Clean Water, No Worries - I’ve bought the Pentair Pentek DGD‑2501‑20 filter before, and I keep coming back because it truly makes a difference in my home. When I use it, the water looks clearer and tastes fresher, which makes me feel good about what my family is drinking. It catches the dirt and sand that used to slip through other filters I tried. I like that it lasts a long time and fits my system without any trouble. This filter has earned my trust, and I’m happy to say I really love this product.
Review: Fresh and Clean - Works and fits perfect. Cheaper and better than the oem filters that cost triple the price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fresh and Clean

Works and fits perfect. Cheaper and better than the oem filters that cost triple the price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice filter and good fit for the big blue.
*by B***X on November 3, 2019*

Fits the 20 inch big blue perfectly. Keep some replacement o-rings on hand as after some time the will lose their form and leak. I installed this in the water line coming into the house from my well between the well and the pressure tank. Specifically in front of a water treatment system intended to reduce lime scale in my water. Plus I was tired of cleaning aerators on my faucets. I know the filter is working immediately as there is no longer particles in my water. A strange side effect is getting brown or blackish streaks in my toilet bowls where the water streams down from the tank at the rim of the bowls. This happened at a previous property I had where I installed a filter system on an existing water system. After a couple of months this cleared up and I expect it will this tie as well. Is this because the water is now more clean and the lines are clearing up? Not sure but as this happened on a previous property this leads me to believe this filter is doing its job.
