## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it easy to remove? the whole assembly i mean. i'm concerned if i give it a try and the tab snaps into place i won't be able to remove it.**
A: Yes, it's easy.  Twist, and the inner (green) filter comes up.  Pull, and the entire assembly (green inner, and white outer) comes out.

**Q: Is this filter sized to insert into a 3" pipe or 4" pipe?**
A: This filter fits into a 4 inch pipe.  And it snaps in snuggly.  The filter itself is only about 3 inches, but the top part snaps into a 4 inch pipe and stays there.  You can then turn the handle and remove the filter from the top piece, but it stays put.  You need a 4 inch pipe for this to work.

**Q: Can you put a pipe on it so you can remove it and put it in ? What the out side dimension as thin pipe and sch 40 different .**
A: Yes, I made an extension and a tee handle out of 3/4" schedule 40 PVC. A couple of notes;  PVC 3/4" schedule 40 pipe will fit into the top of the filter where the filter handle is located.  I believed normal PVC glue would not secure the PVC onto the filter.  So I drilled a hole in the PVC and utilized a stainless steel bolt & nut with flat washers on each side to secure it to the filter.  I used stainless steel so it would not corrode. The filter does not simply lift in and out.  When inserted it is twisted to lock into place.  So I used a PVC Tee to make a tee handle on the end of the extension to aid in twisting the filter into and out of the lock position.

**Q: I have the yellow tuff-tite unit.  will this drop into the same standard outlet tee, or do i need a special extra-long outlet tee for it?**
A: If you have a newer tank I would think that it would drop right in. If you have something older,or not to code,then some type of modification may be necassary

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Product!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great and fits perfectly in 4" pipe
*by D***I on 29 May 2025*

Superior filter in filter design, good quality material.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pricey,,, but worth it.
*by D***S on 18 January 2025*

Got this when it was time to bring my septic system up to new standards. I believe effluent filters are now code for new septic tank installs. My system functioned well since 1968, but after discovering that both my concrete baffles failed due to age, I decided to bring things up to new standards. Construction of filter assembly seems excellent. Zoeller is a trusted name, I will update review should something happen to warrant update.
