  • Durable Design: Features 102 or more deep grooves for increased surface area and contaminant holding capacity.

Size

The ideal 30" or 40" replacement water filter cartridge for water heater filter systems. It’s a premium cartridge that removes sediment from the water and contains genuine Siliphos®, a corrosion and scale inhibitor. A tankless water heater filter with scale inhibitor protects the heat exchanger in your tankless water heater and helps avoid tank failure. Recommended for commercial and residential tankless water heaters and boilers from such brands as Bosch, Navien, Noritz, Paloma, Raypak, Rheem, Rinnai, Stiebel Eltron, Takagi, and more.

What is scale?

Scale is a hard, mineral coating that can collect on the water-side of pipes and tubes inside a tankless water heater or boiler. Scale is a problem for tankless water heaters and boilers because it acts as a barrier to heat transfer which increases energy consumption and costs. Scale also causes pipe / tube corrosion and failure (these parts are very expensive to replace!).

Scale removal and scale inhibitor

The best and easiest way to maintain your tankless water heater or boiler is to have a water filter system with scale inhibitor. This system should be installed to filter water before it enters your tankless water heater or boiler.

A tankless water heater filter or boiler water treatment system with corrosion and scale inhibitor filters will remove existing scale deposits, prevent scale, and stop corrosion. Scale inhibitor works by forming a thin protective layer on the metal surface to prevent the deposition of scale and corrosion.

Filtration Process

Mechanical - A physical barrier traps particles to remove them from water.

Adsorption - Traps particles and some dissolved contaminants through physical and chemical interactions.

Ultrafiltration - Removes ultrafine particles and bacteria.

Multi-stage - Multiple filter stages that target specific contaminants.

Reverse Osmosis - Removes all contaminants to produce pure water.

Alkaline - Increases alkalinity (pH) and antioxidant level.

Mechanical
Type of Filter

Activated Carbon Block - Removes chlorine, organic compounds, and other contaminants from water.

Catalytic Carbon - Removes chloramines and some heavy metals; more effective chlorine and organic compound removal than activated carbon block filters.

Anti Scale - Prevents hard water scale and corrosion.

Sediment - Removes suspended particles such as sand, dirt, rust, and sediment from water.

Pleated - Removes bacteria, viruses, ultrafine particles, and other contaminants from water.

Granular Activated Carbon - Removes chlorine and some other contaminants; less effective particulate filtration compared to carbon block filters.
