Glonyx 40-Micron Spin-Down Pre-Filter

Model Number: GX-SP-02

Protects heaters · washers · downstream treatment

Sand, rust flakes, and pipe debris should not be the first thing your water heater, washer, or purifier sees. GX-SP-02 installs near the front of the main water line to capture visible particles before they travel through the home.

Built with a reusable 40 μm 316L stainless-steel screen, a clear housing, a rotary scrape-clean knob, and a bottom drain, it gives homeowners a practical first line of sediment protection.

After the water meter

Place GX-SP-02 near the front of the residential water line so sediment protection starts before water reaches key equipment.

Before water-treatment systems and appliances

Use it before water heaters, washing machines, purifiers, filters, and other equipment that benefits from cleaner inlet water.

For visible particles—not every water problem

GX-SP-02 helps with sand, rust flakes, and larger particles. It does not disinfect water, reduce TDS, remove chlorine taste, or soften hard water.

Pair with the treatment your water actually needs

Use carbon filtration, UV purification, RO, softening, or scale control only when the home has those separate treatment goals.
