## Overview

The Pentair Pentek P5 is a 10-inch under-sink sediment water filter cartridge that removes particles as small as 5 microns using a gradient density spun-bonded polypropylene design. It fits standard housings, maintains strong water flow with minimal pressure drop, and is NSF/ANSI Standard 42 certified, ensuring safe, clean, and taste-neutral water for residential and commercial use.

## Description

The Pentair Pentek P5 sediment filter cartridge delivers reliable 5-micron filtration for whole-house, under-sink, and point-of-use systems. Its spun-bonded polypropylene fibers are formed into a true gradient density structure without a center core. This layered design captures larger sediment on the outer surface while trapping finer particles deeper in the media, giving you greater dirt-holding capacity and longer service life compared to uniform-density cartridges.Built from 100% pure polypropylene, the P5 will not add taste, odor, or color to your water and offers superior chemical compatibility for a wide range of residential, commercial, and industrial applications. The cartridge operates in water temperatures from 40 to 145 degrees Fahrenheit and produces just 0.2 psi of pressure drop at 5 gpm, preserving the water flow your household depends on.The P5 is NSF/ANSI Standard 42 certified for material safety requirements and fits any standard 10" x 2.5" filter housing. Simply remove your old cartridge and drop in the P5 for cleaner, filtered water with no tools or adapters required.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how often do you replace**
A: Replace when water pressure (in the shower for example) seems low.  How long the filter lasts depends on how much sediment is in the water, and how much water gets used.  For me, with a well and the filter on the whole house it lasts about 6 months to a year.

**Q: excuese me   P5 9-3/4" x 2-3/8" 5  Micron   made in which country**
A: I think either taiwan or china

**Q: what units do these work with?**
A: I do not know the unit size. I have a small water filter and it works very well.

**Q: Did these filters used to be white?**
A: Yes, these filters are white.  It looks like someone added the wrong picture to this listing - it's showing the C2 carbon filter.
The part # 155014-43 P5 is for a 5 Micron sediment filter, which is white.
