CS water filter – Protection for your CS soaker hose

Prevent clogs and extend the lifespan of your soaker hose.

The CS water filter protects your CS soaker hose from clogs caused by foreign particles in the water. The fine pores of the CS soaker hose allow water to seep out evenly. Unclean irrigation water can clog these pores, leading to uneven irrigation.

Why is a water filter important?

A water filter prevents dirt particles from clogging the small pores of the CS soaker hose. This keeps the water flow consistent and extends the lifespan of the CS soaker hose. Using a filter is especially recommended when the water contains a high amount of impurities.

Overview of our water filters

Filter type	Type of Filter	Description
Standard water filter	1/2 inch – 125 micron	Compact filter for small to medium irrigation systems. Easy cleaning with a backwash function. Recommended for use with the mains water supply.
Fine filter	5 / 10 inch – 60 micron	Fine filtration for water with visible impurities. Transparent housing for easy monitoring.
Ultra-fine filter	5 / 10 inch – 20 micron	For very dirty water with fine particles. Filter cartridge is difficult to clean, so replace it in case of heavy contamination.
Water filter with pressure reducer	1/2 inch – 125 micron	Compact filter for small to medium irrigation systems with easy cleaning thanks to the backwash function. Recommended for use with the mains water supply. The integrated Pressure reducer reduces the pressure to 15 PSI (1 bar), making an additional pressure reducer unnecessary. If the pressure is too high, excess water is discharged through the compensating bore.

How the CS water filter works

The water filter is installed between the water source and the CS soaker hose, filtering the water before it enters the CS soaker hose. This retains impurities, keeping the CS soaker hose functional for longer. Depending on the water quality, different filter inserts can be used to ensure optimal filtration.

Tips for optimal use

• Regularly check the contamination level of the filter cartridge and clean it as needed.
• Choose the appropriate filter fineness based on water quality to prevent clogging.
• For heavily contaminated water, use a combination of 60 micron and 20 micron filters for maximum filtration.
• In spring, thoroughly flush the water line before connecting the soaker hose.
• For rainwater or cisterns, use at least a 60 micron filter.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why do I need a water filter for the CS soaker hose?w

A water filter protects the CS soaker hose from clogs caused by dirt particles in the water. This ensures even water delivery and extends the lifespan of the CS soaker hose.

How often should I clean the water filter?

Depending on the level of water contamination, the filter should be checked and cleaned regularly. For heavily contaminated water, more frequent cleaning may be necessary. The 60 micron filter cartridge can be washed, while the 20 micron cartridge should be replaced if heavily contaminated.

Can I install the water filter later?

Yes, the water filter can be added to an existing irrigation system at any time. However, it is recommended to install it directly at the water source for optimal protection.
