Netafim 1" MPT - Super Disc Filter for Lawn & Garden Irrigation

Product Overview

Contaminants in a water source are a silent threat to your irrigation systems, often leading to clogged emitters, uneven distribution, and eventually, total turf failure. When a filtration system fails or is absent during the peak of summer heat, the resulting plant loss and emergency repair calls can ruin your season's profitability. With global supply chains often fluctuating, waiting until a system shows signs of distress is a risk your business cannot afford. Securing your filtration components now ensures your project deadlines remain intact and your clients stay satisfied with a resilient, high-performing landscape.

The Netafim Super Disc Filter offers a distinct technical advantage over standard screen filters by providing three dimensional filtration. While screen filters only stop debris on the surface, the stacked disc technology traps organic and inorganic matter throughout the depth of the disc assembly. This design significantly extends the intervals between cleanings, saving your crews valuable maintenance time and reducing long term labor costs. By installing these high grade units, you provide a professional level of protection that maintains system pressure and protects your reputation for quality installs.

• Interchangeable disc rings allow for customization of the filtration grade based on specific water quality needs.

Installation Notes

For optimal performance, install the filter horizontally or vertically with the arrow pointing in the direction of the water flow. Most professionals prefer to install this unit downstream of the master valve but upstream of the zone valves to protect the entire manifold. Ensure there is enough clearance to remove the filter cap for routine cleaning. Hand tighten the housing to prevent cracking, and always follow local plumbing codes regarding backflow prevention when connecting to a potable water source.
