Product SKU: BBH-150
UPC/EAN: 0756806516237
The Big Bubba water filter is ideal for removing particulate matter from any water supply. It's not necessarily for domestic properties unless there was sediment in the water and it was a large property or a building with multiple flats. But, if you are running a business where it is critical to remove any sediment in the water then the Big Bubba water filter is the perfect solution as it has very high flow rates.
Filter housings are made of rugged, glass-reinforced polypropylene so they will not chip, rust or dent. And because all wetted surfaces are non-metallic, they are ideal when chemical compatibility is an issue and for sea water applications.

* Highly dependent on micron rating, solids content and other factors. Please see pressure drop chart below.
Note: housing number BBH-150 has a wetted brass gauge port for the inlet pressure gauge.
The Big Bubba® filter housing is designed to minimize pressure drop, by using 2” pipe fittings and large diameter center tubes. (See chart at right for pressure drop data using pleated cartridges.)

Note: Flow rates are based on each specific application, micron rating, solids content and a number of other factors. End user should consider these factors when selecting the filter housing (or number of filter housings) needed for their particular requirement.
No, you don't. You can install your mains water filter wherever the cold water supply enters your house. This could be a utility room, garage, or other location.
