Pentek ECP5-20BB

The Pentek ECP5-20BB water filter cartridge has a special formulation of resin-impregnated cellulose and polyester fibers. The Pentek ECP5-20BB water filters also provide high flow rates and dirtholding capacity, while maintaining extremely low pressure drop. The Pentek ECP5-20BB water filters provide higher wet strength than regular cellulose cartridges. The Pentek ECP5-20BB water filter media is pleated around a polypropylene core for added strength and the ends are immersed in a thermo-setting vinyl plastisol. Embedding and sealing each end of the pleat block in this fashion fuses the components together forming a unitized end cap and gasket. The ECP water filter cartridges contain more media surface area than most competitive cartridges. The 20" Big Blue ECP cartridges contain 36 square feet of media. The Pentek ECP5-20BB replacement filter cartridge is recommended for chlorinated water supplies. It is not recommended for non-chlorinated water supplies. Cellulose may start to break down if there is bacteria present in well water or other non-chlorinated water supplies. The Pentek ECP5-20BB filter is the same as the Everpure EV910841 filter, Everpure DEV910841 filter, Cuno CFS210-2 filter, and ShurFlo 15-054-02 filter.
