Water Filter World Twin 20" Enclosed Whole Home Water Filter System
The Water Filter World Twin 20" Enclosed Whole Home Water Filter System combines two large-format whole-house filtration stages in an enclosed point-of-entry configuration.
The standard treatment arrangement uses a sediment cartridge followed by a carbon cartridge. Water is filtered before being distributed through applicable household plumbing, making the system suitable where central sediment and carbon treatment is preferred over filtration at one individual tap.
Water Filter World currently supplies Twin Big Blue whole-house systems with different cartridge grades available. The exact sediment micron rating, carbon grade and treatment capability should therefore be confirmed against the configuration selected when ordering.
Twin 20 Enclosed Key Details
Two Dedicated Filtration Stages
Stage 1 – Sediment
The first cartridge provides physical filtration of suspended dirt, rust, sand, silt and other particulate material before water reaches the carbon stage.
Stage 2 – Carbon
The second cartridge uses carbon media to provide chlorine, unwanted taste, colour and odour treatment within the specification of the cartridge selected.
Filter Water Before It Is Distributed Through the Property
The Twin 20 Enclosed system is designed for installation on the incoming household water line.
This allows applicable taps, showers and connected appliances downstream of the system to receive water that has passed through both filtration stages.
The practical system flow depends on the cartridge selection, incoming pressure, plumbing size, fittings and the level of restriction that develops as the cartridges collect material.
Sediment Filtration
The first stage is dedicated to suspended particulate material.
Dirt
Captures suspended dirt carried through the incoming water supply.
Rust
Helps reduce particulate rust before it reaches downstream filtration and plumbing.
Sand & Silt
Provides mechanical filtration of suspended sand, silt and similar particles.
Pre-Filtration
Reducing sediment first helps prevent unnecessary particulate loading on the carbon stage.
Replaceable
The sediment cartridge is a consumable treatment component and requires periodic servicing.
Multiple Options
The exact micron rating depends on the sediment cartridge selected for the system.
Carbon Filtration
Water Filter World offers different carbon grades across its Twin Big Blue whole-house range.
A carbon cartridge can provide treatment for chlorine and unwanted taste, colour and odour, but more specific contaminant claims depend on the exact media supplied.
Chlorine
Carbon filtration can reduce chlorine within the cartridge's specified capacity and operating conditions.
Unwanted Taste
Activated-carbon treatment can reduce unwanted taste associated with suitable incoming water supplies.
Colour & Odour
Water Filter World lists colour and odour treatment among the functions of compatible carbon configurations.
Choose the Filtration Grade for the Application
Water Filter World currently lists more than one Twin Big Blue whole-house configuration, including a high-grade Twin Big Blue 20" system.
This means the filtration capability of the Twin 20 platform can vary according to the cartridges supplied.
- Confirm the sediment micron rating
- Confirm the carbon cartridge grade
- Check the carbon cartridge's specific reduction claims
- Confirm replacement cartridge availability
- Match cartridge flow capability to household demand
- Keep the correct first-stage and second-stage sequence
Protective Whole-House Installation Format
The enclosed version packages the Twin 20 filtration equipment within a protective whole-house installation arrangement rather than leaving the filtration assembly fully exposed.
The exact enclosure material, dimensions and environmental exposure rating should be confirmed against the current version supplied.
UV Treatment Is a Separate Upgrade
The standard Twin 20 Enclosed filtration system uses sediment and carbon filtration.
A whole-house ultraviolet treatment system can be added where the incoming water source and treatment requirements justify an additional microbiological treatment stage.
Not Every Water-Treatment Function Comes From Two Cartridges
- UV treatment is not standard unless specifically selected
- Scale control is not automatically included
- Sediment filtration does not remove dissolved hardness
- Carbon filtration capability depends on the selected media
- Specialist iron or manganese treatment requires suitable dedicated media
- Bore-water issues may require additional treatment following water testing
When the Twin 20 Enclosed System May Be Suitable
- You want central whole-house filtration
- You require sediment treatment before carbon filtration
- You want chlorine, taste or odour treatment from a suitable carbon stage
- You prefer two large 20-inch cartridge housings
- You want the filtration equipment in an enclosed installation format
- You have suitable plumbing access at the incoming water line
- You can provide adequate cartridge-service clearance
- You have confirmed the selected cartridges suit the incoming water
Match the Cartridge Configuration to the Incoming Water
Mains Water
Sediment and carbon treatment can suit applications where particulate matter, chlorine, unwanted taste or odour are the identified treatment priorities.
Rainwater
Sediment filtration can form part of a rainwater system, but whether UV or additional treatment is required should be assessed separately.
Bore Water
Bore water can contain iron, manganese, salinity, hardness and other dissolved issues that may require testing and treatment beyond a standard Twin 20 configuration.
Whole-House Flow Depends on the Complete Configuration
Large 20-inch housings are designed for whole-house applications, but housing size alone does not establish the final usable flow rate.
System performance depends on:
- Selected sediment cartridge
- Selected carbon cartridge
- Incoming water pressure
- Pipe diameter and fittings
- Simultaneous household demand
- Cartridge condition and pressure drop
