How is this dockside filter stand used on a yacht?

Position the stand in the incoming dock-water line before the vessel fill connection, then select cartridges that fit the Big Blue housings and suit the required treatment stage.

How do I choose the correct replacement or configuration?

Confirm that Big Blue housings are required and choose the filtration cartridges separately. Do not assume a particular sediment or carbon cartridge is included with the stand.

Additional Product Details

Includes garden hose Fittings and a 2 ft. Note: We do not recommend carbon cartridges prior to the water tank as you need some disinfection in the water tank as it is atmospheric and will gas off any unused chlorine and help keep the tank clean. We would recommend to actually put a cap of bleach in the tank to help with the biofilm build-up inside the tank. It is best to use carbon filters after your main water pumps or at the point of use in galleys, ice machines, crew quarters & salon bars.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dockside Dual Big Blue Filters Housings in Stand

Are filters included with the Dockside Dual Big Blue stand?

No. Yacht-Mate’s product information states that filter cartridges are not included.

What size filters fit this dockside stand?

Use cartridges compatible with Big Blue housings. Check the cartridge diameter and length required by the housings before ordering.

Where should a dockside filter stand be connected?

It is used on the incoming dock-water line before water enters the vessel. Follow the vessel’s fill-water procedure and hose-routing requirements.

Should I use sediment or carbon filters in the stand?

That depends on the source water and the treatment objective. Select cartridges for the required filtration stage rather than assuming one cartridge combination is correct for every marina or vessel.
