Key Features

• COMPATIBLE REPLACEMENT MODELS – This 30 micron 10 x 4.5 string wound sediment water filter is a replacement for Hydronix SWC-45-1030 and fits most standard 10 inch x 4.5 inch diameter whole house filter housings.
• 30 MICRON DEPTH SEDIMENT FILTRATION – String wound polypropylene construction captures coarse sediment such as sand, rust flakes, dirt, silt, and scale, making it well suited for first-stage sediment control in whole house systems.
• STRING WOUND POLYPROPYLENE MEDIA DESIGN – Continuous polypropylene cord is tightly wound around a rigid core to create depth filtration that traps particles throughout the cartridge, supporting gradual loading and consistent flow.
• IDEAL FIRST-STAGE WHOLE HOUSE PRE-FILTER – Commonly used as an entry-point sediment filter to help protect plumbing lines, valves, appliances, and downstream filtration equipment from sediment buildup in well and municipal water supplies.
• SERVICE LIFE VARIES BY WATER CONDITIONS – Replacement frequency depends on chlorine levels, sediment loads, water quality, and micron rating; many households replace 30 micron whole house sediment filters around six months to maintain steady flow and consistent system performance.
