Rusco/Vu-Flow 1 100 Mesh Spin Down Sediment Water Filter System

works good!

Words very fine.

This is easily the best value for spin down filters. Ive had it installed for a few months now and it has worked perfectly. I flush it about once a month. No leaks or cracks. I would highly recommend this.

Well

So far so good

Only had this product for about 5 days now but is working excellent. Have a deep well that is roughly 400’ deep with casing going down about 80’. I’m running a 1-1/2 hp deep well pump with 1-1/4 pipe and was picking up small trash from time to time which would block my sprayer nozzle. This water is only used for outside watering garden, lawn, & washing auto. Would still recommend product if using for your home if your having issues.

Giving it 5 stars because it works. Clogs in 5 minutes, but thats my well. Going to try adding a disk filter to pre-treat it.

Easy to install, appears to be keeping sand out of my irrigation system. I had to install the drain valve a second time as it was leaking. I really enjoy checking on it and seeing how much sand is being collected.

This is the second one we have purchased after using another one on a different water line for several years. The spin down separator has performed exactly as it should on a rural single home well system.

Im on well water that has a lot of manganese in it. I put two of these sediment filters upstream of a Big Blue 20 DGD-2501 filter and they extend the filter element life two of three times. I do use the flushing feature fairly regularly (once a week or more in the rainy season) At first I had 100 and 250 mesh screens in these housings, but have stepped it up to 140 and 500 screens to see if I can extend the filter life even more. I great product that does exactly what I wanted. Running the washing machine is where I really see whats going on. However, if I had to do it over again, Id get the bigger housing (1.5 inlet & outlet, vice 1) to see if it would increase flow when the screens were getting plugged.
