Our Wound Sediment Filters are manufactured in the UK using FDA and EC approved materials, popular for numerous applications including private water supplies, drinking water, reverse osmosis and pre-filtration for UV systems. Wound filters also known as ‘depth filters’ have a high sediment holding capacity, trapping a broad range of particulate thanks to their graded density construction whilst maintaining a low pressure drop. We stock a variety of sizes for both regular and large diameter filter housings alongside several micron ratings from 1 micron to 100 micron.

Choosing Product Size

We stock these filter cartridges in a variety of lengths, with your choice of either regular diameter (2.5″) or large diameter (4.25″). Choose a size that matches your existing filter housing or flow rate requirements. Most standard filter housings are compatible with these filter cartridges, but are available for purchase separately if required.

Choosing Micron Rating

Choose a micron rating based on your requirements. The lower the micron rating the smaller the particle size it traps. If the micron rating is too low then the filter can get blocked quickly, so it is important to strike a balance based on the water quality and application. Where installed prior to a UV system, a 5 micron pre-filter is recommended. For help choosing a micron rating please get in touch before placing your order.

WOUND SEDIMENT FILTERS

Manufactured In The UK

Wound or ‘string wound’ sediment filters are a cost effective solution for removing sediment and turbidity in liquid applications. Able to filter out a broad range of particulates including sand, silt, dirt, and rust. Made in the UK from high quality, food grade polypropylene, these filters offer excellent chemical compatibility with various liquids and are certified to EC standards for drinking water applications. Their versatility makes them suitable for several industries, including potable water treatment, food or beverage processing, private water supplies and chemical production. They are also effective as a pre-filter to a UV or RO system, helping to maintain operational efficiency.

How Long Do These Filters Usually Last?
The average lifespan of these filters is 6-12 months depending on water quality and flow rate. If the filter is visibly dirty or the water pressure has dropped, then this is an indication that the filter needs to be changed.

There was an issue with the water softener I ordered initially, but then following communications made the replacement process quite pleasant. Happily recommend this company. Thanks to Becky for working with me. Great follow up support 😊😊😊

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First time using this company and product and i wasnt dissappointed. Communication was easy and quick resulted in an easy order and now having fitted the filter i can say its a great product easy to install and appears good quality apart from the four mild steel bracket screws stainless would have been better considering the environment these are fitted. All in all, very pleased and would highly recommend .

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent local company and genuinely lovely people to deal with. Really helpful and knowledgeable, with great advice about my water softener and the correct salt to use. They even gave me some resin cleaner at no charge, which was a very kind gesture. Fantastic friendly service and I’ll definitely be returning for my salt in future. Highly recommended.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service.  Product proved my softener was not working as it should.  I fully serviced it and cleaned with Resin Clean returned to service and it is now working as designed.  Very pleased.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you're thinking about a water softener then i HIGHLY recommend Ultra Soft Water Softeners Ltd.

Great softeners and exceptional customer service. The water softener I bought needed some adjustments with the installation setup where I supported throughout. The customer service is honestly next level. I had countless calls with Becky Gillett, the Sales Manager, over a period of months to get to the bottom of it. She was incredibly patient with me, staying on the phone and doing video calls to walk me through the programming instructions step-by-step while I changed the settings and ensured all was installed correctly.

All the staff here have been great, but Becky really stuck with me from start to finish to make sure it was sorted and working well. It runs like a dream now.

HIGHLY recommend them!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Easy to order, quick delivery, good communication. Resclean worked a treat; one treatment cycle and soft water is back again from our 12 yr old softener!
