    i came across a box of 20 new 10 micron 4 inch filter socks at work today that we no longer use. Instead of throwing them out, Im thinkin of using them in my sump. Is 10 mic going to be too small?

    If you are changing out everyday it may not be a problem. I see them clogging up fairly fast otherwise.

    Are they mesh or felt? Felt is going to fill up a lot faster. If they are free why not use them:)

    10 micron? Do you mean 100 micron? Even rotifer screens are 50+ micron, coffee screens are 20-30 microns.
