The filter elements come in different weaves to catch the smaller stuff.
Depending on your problems, you may want to consider two in series, one say,
25 micron, the second 5 micron. If all you get is alittle sand from a well,
the larger size is probably sufficient, but if you get fine rust, go
smaller.
As for housings, most are similar. Some are clear, others are solid colors.
The clear give you some visual indication of time to change the element.
TIP: Be sure to relieve the pressure in the line before removing the
cartridge and it comes off much easier. Hand tight is sufficient when you
replace it.
