AND I worked in a ski shop, they used their O'ladies hose's toes for a pre filter to keep the filter floss cleaner longer.

hEY THAT FILTER SOCK LOOKS FAMILIER...i THINK i USED ONE IN HIGH SCHOOL.....anyways. I know this may sound dumb but Where are you guys using these filter socks on?Is it on your returns going into the tank to catch the little extra particles for crystal water? Or on a HOF on the return of that? I am curious.I have ehard people using them but never looked into it any more.
