Atlas Filtri 20 Inch Big SANIC Antimicrobial Grey Housing - 1"

The Atlas Filtri 20-inch Big Sanic Antimicrobial Housing is manufactured using proven Microban Silver-Based Technology to protect against the growth and reproduction of microorganisms, such as bacteria. 

Essentially the Microban Silver-Based Technology helps to extend the life span of a filter cartridge inside of the housings, by slowing down how quickly bacteria may grow inside of the housing and on the filter cartridge itself. 

Keep in mind, that while the Microban technology will slow down the growth of bacteria inside the housing, it is not designed to eliminate and/or remove bacteria from source water by itself. In order to eliminate and/or bacteria from a water source, you would require something such as chlorine dosing, or Ultra Violet (UV), or Membrane technologies (UF, NF, or RO), or 0.1-micron Filters, or any combination of these different processes. If you are looking to eliminate and/or remove bacteria and microorganisms from water, then we would recommend contacting our sales team for advice.

Additional Options

LubriKit+ - O-ring Lubricant 

The "Lubrikit+"  O-ring Lubricant is specifically designed to lubricate Water Filter Housing O-rings during installation and maintenance. Ideally, a filter housing o-ring should be lubricated not just during the initial installation of a single housings and/or complete filter system, but also after each time maintenance is done on the housing and/or system. 

The Lubrikit+ " dropper"  design helps to make the application of the lubricant both easier and neater. While other options such as petroleum jelly can be used to lubricate filter housing O-rings, it does tend the make a mess. Also, the "sticky"  nature of something like petroleum jelly, can sometimes make it difficult to get the housing open at a later stage. 

There are several benefits to keeping a housing's O-ring adequately lubricated: 

• Lubricating the O-ring helps to ensure that the O-ring will "seat" correctly inside or on the " sump" (or groove) on the top of the housing's body that the lid will screw onto. 
• Lubricating the O-ring will also help to ensure a better seal with the housing
• Lubricating the O-ring will help to make it easier to open and close the housing. Keep in mind when closing a filter housing it should only be done with hands, and not the housing spanner, as this can lead to "over-tightening"  the housing leading to either damage or making the housing very difficult to re-open. The housing spanner should on be used for opening the housing.
• Lubricating the O-ring helps to protect the O-ring from damage due to friction from opening and closing the housing repeatedly, another reason why the lubricant should be re-applied after each maintenance cycle. Please keep in mind, that despite lubrication, the O-rings on housings can sometimes be damaged from old age, and/or from being " Pinched" (or caught) between the housings base (bottom section) and its lid. At which point the O-ring or Complete Housing may need to be replaced, depending the the design.
