Last week I asked for help identifying my house water filter.

It's a Honeywell-Braukmann F76 with 100 micrometer cartridge. The
manufacturer web site says it never needs replacing as long as it is
backwashed periodically.

OK, dumb question: I assume this means take out the cartridge and rinse it
off. Correct?

How often? My house has 3 full baths.

Never mind. It was a dumb question. I just need to open the valve at the
bottom and force water out for a few seconds. I don't need to remove the
filter cartridge.

Where did you find out the brand and model?

There's a pressure gauge on top. I didn't think to look at it because I
thought the gauge was a separate device, but it was identified there at the
gauge. I then looked on line and confirmed at Honeywell.
