- Lubricate the o-ring with food-grade silicone grease, hand-tighten the sump, then restore water pressure and check for leaks
- Flush the cartridge for 5 minutes before use to remove any fine particles and activate the media
Housing Requirements
The Aries AF-10-3695-BB is designed for use in standard 10" x 4.5" Big Blue filter housings with 1" NPT ports. Compatible with most whole-house filtration systems from manufacturers including Pentek, US Water Systems, iSpring, and Hydronix. Verify your housing dimensions before ordering, as this cartridge requires a true 4.5" diameter sump (not 2.5" slim-line housings). Flow rates should be maintained at or below 0.5 GPM for optimal arsenic removal performance and to achieve rated capacity.
