The AP-100-4N1 uses our special 4 in 1-Micron Multi-Sectional Sediment Cartridge that has four stages of filtration. It is a Post-Sediment (polishing filter) and serves to prevent any sediment, carbon fines, parasites, or cysts from making their way into your household plumbing.
The AP-100-4N1 should be installed with a 3-valve bypass and unions in a location where the unit can be easily removed for servicing. Install the VIH clear housing after the whole house tank and in a location for easy replacement of the sediment cartridge. The sediment cartridge should be replaced every 12-months, or whenever you observe a pressure drop in your water.
The AP-100-4N1 is available in either a clear or solid blue housing. The solid blue housing is intended for outdoor use but may also be used indoors when strong U/V rays are present. For example, many indoor fluorescent lights have U/V rays. When in doubt, it's best to go with the solid blue unit.
The replacement filter is: APR-4N1.
This specially designed sediment filter is graduated from 30-15-5-1 microns and will outlast a standard 5-micron cartridge typically used for whole home sediment filtration. The 1-micron cartridge will also help guard against common parasites and cysts.

Efficiency | The 4-N-1 is a 1-micron sediment cartridge that has four stages of filtration. Each stage of the cartridge filters a unique size of sediment. Because the 4-N-1 is multi sectional and uses gradual filtration, it lasts longer than a single section cartridge. It does not remove beneficial dissolved minerals that are essential for good health. |
Filter Section | The 1-Micron Multi Sectional 9 ¾ Sediment Cartridge: APR-4N1 should be replaced every 12 months. A significant change in water flow indicates that the cartridge may soon need to be replaced. |
Guarantee | One full year for material and workmanship. Due to varying water quality, the filter section is not covered under warranty. Maintenance free. |
