Description
The Filter Housing 10 inch Clear is a transparent single-stage housing for standard 10 x 2.5 inch cartridges. The clear bowl lets you see the cartridge inside, so you know immediately when it is dirty and due for replacement. It is the most popular first-stage housing for under-sink filters, RO pre-filtration, coffee machines and small point-of-use systems in Oman.
Why a clear Filter Housing 10 inch?
With an opaque housing you have to guess when to change the cartridge or follow a fixed schedule. A clear bowl shows the colour of the sediment cartridge: when it turns brown, it is time for a change. This is especially useful in Muscat, where tank and tanker water can carry varying amounts of sand and rust from month to month. We recommend clear housings for sediment stages and opaque housings for carbon stages, since light can encourage algae on carbon.

Installation and safety tips
Install the Filter Housing 10 inch Clear on the cold water line only and keep it out of direct sunlight, which can weaken the bowl and grow algae. Check the arrow for flow direction, lubricate the O-ring with food-grade silicone, and hand-tighten the bowl with the wrench. Replace the bowl every few years or if it shows cracks. For more on cartridge filters, see Wikipedia.
Frequently asked questions
Can it take hot water? No. It is for cold water only.
Will it fit my existing RO? Most RO systems use standard 10-inch housings. Check the port size and bracket.
Choosing the right Filter Housing 10 inch Clear
Before you buy, check three things. First, the cartridge size: this housing takes standard 10 x 2.5 inch cartridges, the most common size in Oman, so replacements are easy to find. Second, the port size: 1/2 inch suits most under-sink and appliance lines, while 3/4 inch gives a little more flow for small whole-room applications. Third, where it will be installed: indoors under a sink, in a utility room, or outside in a shaded area. Our team can advise on the best layout for your kitchen or plant room, and supply the bracket, fittings and tubing to complete the job.
Many customers in Muscat use a Filter Housing 10 inch Clear as part of a multi-stage set: a clear sediment housing first, then opaque carbon housings, then an RO or UV unit. Building the system from standard parts keeps running costs low, because every cartridge and O-ring is a common size available from Farz Water at any time.
