Why would I need to use a Lakos SandMaster sand separator instead of a typical water filter?
” Lakos SandMaster separators use centrifugal action to remove debris heavier than water. Typical water filters can get clogged by sand, silt and grit. Using a circular motion, particles are thrown to the perimeter, fall and collect in chamber at the bottom of the unit. You may want to use a 3/4″ ball valve at the bottom to flush away (purge) the separated particles without having to replace any screens or cartridges. “Why would I need to use the SandMaster Plus (304 stainless steel version) instead of the regular SandMaster?” The SandMaster Plus is recommended for use in areas where corrosive water is a problem.
