The 3/4”, 1”, 1-1/2” and 2” filter screens are readily accessible for easy removal and cleaning. These screens can be used as replacement screens in any of The Drip Store’s current line of screen filters.
Screen filters are the most common filters used in the irrigation industry and in most cases the least expensive. They are generally used as a backup for any type of drip irrigation installation and are mainly installed where the quality of water is good. Screen filters are excellent for removing hard particulates from water, such as sand and other small elements often found in city water.

The screen filters are not suitable for removing organic materials such as algae, mold and slime. These non-solid materials tend to embed themselves into the screen material where they are very difficult to remove. In other cases they simply slide through the holes in the screen by temporarily deforming their shape. The screen filters are cleaned by removing and hand cleaning the screen.
