How to Specify Washing Machine Inlet Hose Filter

  • Thread: G 3/4 garden-hose thread.
  • Mesh: 30-mesh standard; 60-mesh where the supply carries fine sand.
  • Shape: A domed cup gives more filter area than a flat disc and clogs more slowly.

Materials

Standard supply is stainless steel 304; the material column in the table and the drawing options show the exact grade for each size. Other alloys and finishes can be quoted to your drawing.

Fitting & Care

  • Close both taps before unscrewing the hoses.
  • Ease the screen out with fine pliers; do not dig at the mesh.

Common Mistakes

  • Ignoring slow-fill error codes until the valve fails.
  • Pressing a flat screen into a cup-shaped seat, where it leaks around the edge.

When Washing Machine Inlet Hose Filter Is Not the Right Choice

Not a softener or a sediment cartridge for very dirty well water.
