RO Filter Housing– 20 Inches
Premium RO Filter Housings- 20 Inches: The Ultimate Shield for Your Water Purification System
In any Reverse Osmosis (RO) setup, the RO Filter Housing- 20 Inches is the unsung hero. It is the high-pressure fortress that protects your expensive membranes and filters from external damage while ensuring that every drop of water is forced through the filtration media without bypass or leaks. At Vinsol, we supply industrial-grade filter housings designed to withstand the unique water pressure challenges found in Kenyan households and industrial plants alike.
Why the Right Filter Housing Matters
Selecting a subpar housing is the quickest way to ruin an RO system. A weak housing can crack under pressure spikes, causing devastating indoor flooding or air leaks that compromise water purity. Our housings are engineered for:
- Structural Integrity: Made from reinforced Polypropylene or Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) for commercial/industrial applications. Clear housings are often made of polycarbonate or acrylonitrile styrene for visual inspection.
- Leak-Proof Technology: Double O-ring seals to prevent the common “drip” issues found in cheaper alternatives.
- Chemical Resistance: Safe for use with various source water types, including borehole and municipal water.
Our Range of RO Filter Housings & Specifications
We categorize our housings based on your specific filtration stage and volume requirements.
1. Pre-Filter Housings (10″ and 20″ Models)
These are typically used for sediment (PP) and carbon filters.
- 10-Inch Slim: The standard for under-sink residential RO systems.
- 20-Inch Jumbo: Recommended for whole-house filtration or commercial pre-treatment where high flow rates are required.
- Clear vs. Opaque: Choose Clear Sumps for easy visual monitoring of filter dirt levels, or Opaque Blue to prevent algae growth in sunlit areas.
2. High-Pressure Membrane Housings
The RO membrane is the heart of the system and requires a specialized vessel to handle high osmotic pressure.
- FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic): Ideal for brackish water and industrial applications (Size 4040 and 8040).
- Stainless Steel (SS): The gold standard for durability and hygiene, offering a sleek look and maximum pressure resistance for commercial bottling plants.

Frequently Asked Questions: Expert Insights
- How often should I replace my RO filter housing?
While the filters inside are changed every 3–6 months, the housing itself should be inspected annually. We recommend replacing plastic housings every 5 to 7 years because plastic can become brittle over time due to constant pressure cycles (fatigue), which increases the risk of bursting. - Can I tighten the housing by hand?
In fact, hand-tightening is usually preferred. Over-tightening with a wrench can crack the cap or deform the O-ring, leading to more leaks. If it leaks after hand-tightening, check if the O-ring is properly lubricated or seated. - What is the difference between 4040 and 8040 housings?
This refers to the membrane size. A 4040 housing holds a 4-inch diameter, 40-inch long membrane (standard for small water refill shops). An 8040 housing holds an 8-inch diameter, 40-inch long membrane, designed for massive industrial output.
