## Overview

The Pentair Pentek ECP20-20BB is a 20-inch whole house sediment filter cartridge featuring a pleated cellulose-polyester blend with 36 square feet of media surface area. It captures sediment down to 20 microns while maintaining high flow rates and low pressure drop. Sonically welded seams reduce bypass for superior filtration efficiency. Designed as a drop-in replacement for standard 20" Big Blue housings, it offers durable, long-lasting performance with easy identification via its blue endcap. Ideal for chlorinated and non-chlorinated water, it ensures cleaner water throughout your home with minimal maintenance.

## Description

The Pentair Pentek ECP20-20BB is a 20-micron pleated sediment filter cartridge designed for whole house water filtration in standard 20" x 4.5" Big Blue housings. The filter media is constructed from a blend of resin-impregnated cellulose and polyester fibers, providing higher wet strength than standard cellulose cartridges. The pleated design delivers 36 square feet of filter surface area, extending dirt-holding capacity and filter life compared to non-pleated alternatives.The ECP20-20BB features a sonically welded overlap seam that reduces internal bypass for improved filtration efficiency. The cartridge is built around a polypropylene core for added structural strength, with polypropylene endcaps and gaskets for a secure seal. It is compatible with both chlorinated and non-chlorinated water supplies.This cartridge operates at less than 1 psi pressure drop at 20 gpm, with a temperature range of 40-125 degrees F. The blue endcap is color-coded for quick 20-micron identification during filter changes. Replace every 3-6 months or when you notice a decrease in water pressure.

Review: Quality filter for a rainwater filtration system. - I've been using these filters in our whole-house rainwater system that serves as our primary potable water source for 9 years, so I've probably bought them over fifty times. They hold together well and filter the water exactly as they should. As long they make them I'll continue to use them.
Review: Good filter for wells - Unlike some comments, the Pentair, Pentek ECP1-20BB 1-Micorn filter does not come packaged with notations not to use with non-chlorinated water. We use it on our well and even with just pressure tank pressure (Less than most city supplied water), it works superbly. Will buy again. PS: We have a professional well company who also recommends this filter.

Filters fit great in the housing and after checking on them after 30 days of use, they seem to be stopping all of the sediment as intended.
