Is there a good way to plumb a whole house sediment filter, so the housing can easily be replaced?
The way whole house sediment filter housings are usually installed to copper pipes, it looks like you would have to cut the pipes in order to replace the housing. The male fittings that go into the housing are soldered on the copper pipe. They can't be unscrewed after the plumbing is complete.
