FHPR1-B1-AQ Aquafilter 1" pipe housing

Solid 10" inline housing for cold water

The Aquafilter FHPR1-B1-AQ model is a filter housing designed for standard 10" cartridges. The construction consists of two parts: a transparent sump and a head with a 1" brass thread. This design makes installation, filter cartridge replacement, and ongoing monitoring of filter operation easier.

The housing is equipped with two sealing O-rings — a face O-ring and one under the head. This solution helps maintain very good system tightness and supports safe installation operation during everyday use.

Key advantages of the Aquafilter FHPR1-B1-AQ housing

• Two-piece construction for easier handling and cartridge replacement.
• Transparent sump allowing quick assessment of the contamination level of the filter media.
• 1" brass thread ensuring a durable and secure connection.
• Double sealing in the form of two O-rings, increasing housing tightness.
• Pressure relief valve making startup easier after filter cartridge replacement.
• Option for single or series installation depending on installation requirements.
• Compatibility with many 10" cartridges, including mechanical, specialist, and carbon cartridges.

Transparent sump and convenient cartridge condition monitoring

One of the most practical features of this housing is the transparent sump. It allows you to assess how dirty the installed cartridge is without disassembly. This makes replacement planning easier and helps maintain the efficiency of the entire water filtration system.

In everyday use, this means faster servicing and more convenient monitoring of filter operation, especially where the housing serves as a preliminary water treatment stage before further devices.

Pressure relief valve and leak-tight construction

The FHPR1-B1-AQ housing is equipped with a pressure relief valve that allows air trapped inside the filter to be released after cartridge replacement. This is an important operational feature because it makes restarting the installation easier and improves user convenience after servicing.

Tightness is ensured by two sealing O-rings: a face O-ring and an O-ring under the head. This double sealing supports proper housing operation and reduces the risk of leaks.

Where does this inline housing work best?

The Aquafilter FHPR1-B1-AQ can be installed individually or connected in series, which provides high flexibility when designing an installation. The housing is installed on the cold water supply pipe to the apartment, especially where there is moderate water demand.

This model can also be installed before expensive household appliances such as:

• washing machine,
• dishwasher.

In this configuration, it helps protect equipment against the buildup of various types of contaminants present in the water.

Compatibility with 10" cartridges

The housing works with a wide range of 10" cartridges available on the market. These include:

• mechanical cartridges,
• specialist cartridges,
• carbon cartridges,
• softening cartridges,
• iron removal cartridges,
• antibacterial cartridges.

Thanks to this, the housing can be matched to various water filtration and treatment needs. This type of housing can serve as a standalone water filter or as part of a larger installation preparing water for further stages, also in systems using a reverse osmosis filter, osmotic filter, reverse osmosis, or an expanded reverse osmosis system.
