A typical family will discharge enough lint down the drain every year to carpet a living room floor! 

These fine particles go right through the septic tank out to the drainfield where they plug the pores of the soil.  The FILTROL 160™ washing machine filter is a patented, re-usable filter that attaches to your washing machine discharge hose and removes the non-biodegradable fibers like polyester and nylon, sand, hair, and pet fur before they go down the drain and plug your septic system an drainpipes.

The main things you will want to take into consideration when installing your Filtrol-160 washing machine filter will be:

• Location - Install your Filtrol-160 near the washing machine. Discharge hose can be routed to a standpipe, wallbox or laundry tub (figures 1 & 2).
• Attachment - When attaching bracket to the wall, using #14 panhead screws or 1/4 inch lag bolts (at least 2 inches long) with 1/4 inch flat washers is suggested. Screws should be driven into a stud (figure 3).
• Cleaning - Frequency of cleaning the Filtrol-160 micron filter will depend on the types and amounts of materials being laundered.  In most cases the Filtrol-160 filter will need to be cleaned every 5 to 10 washloads, or ever 1-3 weeks. Clean filter often for best results by turning the bag inside out over a garbage container.  Tip:  After a few months use, empty the bag (put in a new filter in the canister) and launder with the next load of clothes.
• Allow approximately 6 inches above the Filtrol-160 unit to be able to remove the top for filter cleaning.
• Filtrol-160 must be above discharge point because it is a gravity filter.

Below are a few examples of Filtrol-160 typical installations; however, because not all laundry rooms are the same, you may have to modify your set-up.
