What to expect
Replacement details
- 5 MICRON STRING WOUND SEDIMENT FILTER - Polypropylene cord wound over a rigid core captures sand, silt, dirt, rust and pipe scale down to 5 microns. The wound depth structure holds debris through the full wall of the cartridge rather than only at the surface, which is why this style carries more sediment before flow drops. Standard 10 in x 2.5 in size. Replace about every 3 months.
- FITS BF-SERIES HOUSINGS - Fits BF36, BF6, BF7 and BF9C filter housings and any standard 10 in x 2.5 in whole house sump that takes a 9.75 in cartridge. Same size as CW-F, WP5, W5W, FXWSC and SWC-25-1005 wound cartridges. CFS is an independent brand and this is not an OEM product.
- BUILT FOR WELL AND CITY WATER - On a private well the wound depth media handles the sand, grit and iron-stained sediment that surface-only filters pass or load up on quickly. On municipal lines it captures pipe scale, rust flakes and the debris that follows a water main break or hydrant flush. This is a sediment cartridge and reduces particulate only.
- FIRST STAGE AHEAD OF YOUR OTHER EQUIPMENT - Installed as the lead cartridge before carbon, a softener or a reverse osmosis system, it captures the grit and rust that would otherwise load those stages early. The downstream media then spends its capacity on the job it was bought for and reaches closer to its rated service life.
- TWO CARTRIDGES, ABOUT HALF A YEAR - At a typical 3 month interval this 2 pack covers roughly six months of changes, so a loaded filter gets swapped the day you notice pressure drop rather than the week the reorder arrives. Built to standard 10 in x 2.5 in dimensions and drops into the housing you already own.
CFS string wound water filter cartridges are mechanical replacement filters for BF36, BF6, BF7 and BF9C housings and any standard 10 in x 2.5 in whole house sump. Polypropylene cord is wound over a rigid core and rated 5 micron nominal.
The winding is looser at the outside and tighter toward the center. Coarse grit is captured in the outer layers while finer particles are held deeper in the wall, so the load spreads through the whole cartridge instead of building on one face. That gives the wound style its high dirt holding capacity and steadier flow as it fills.
Fitment: fits BF36, BF6, BF7 and BF9C filter housings, plus any standard 10 in x 2.5 in canister that accepts a 9.75 in cartridge. Same size as CW-F, WP5, W5W, FXWSC and SWC-25-1005 wound cartridges.
Common uses include well water pre-filtration, whole house point-of-entry filtration, softener and pump line duty, and first-stage service ahead of carbon or reverse osmosis equipment.
Service life is typically about 3 months and varies with sediment load, water source and household usage. Replace sooner if flow drops or pressure falls off at the taps.
