Remove Water from WVO and Fuel

Place this filter unit inline in your fuel transfer setup to remove water. It will plug when it is full of water. Also removes particles at 15 microns and works with gasoline or diesel fuel. It makes sense to have this be the last filter for oil to pass through so that particles have already been removed and the waterblocking capability lasts longest.

FAQ
Frequently Answered Questions

Water in Oil?

 

Take care when collecting waste vegetable oil as it may contain water, which should not be in the fuel system of your vehicle. All water may not be removed by these filters alone. There are two types of water in oil: free and suspended. Free water is that which is not mixed thoroughly into the VegOil. The Goldenrod Waterblocker Filter will capture this type of water very well, and will clog when it is full - disallowing any fluids to pass. 

 

Suspended water, which occurs when water is mixed in thoroughly with the vegoil, may make its way through a waterblocker element. This oil should be avoided if you are on the go, as settling and heating must be applied to remove this type of water. Starting with good oil is your best protection against water.

Oil Source?

 

Finding free fuel is an exciting prospect, and it is a skill that anyone can learn. There is bit of a learning curve, but as any veggie enthusiast will tell you - research first, try it out, be persistent, and you ll be able to spot and filter good veggie like a pro! Generally Asian buffet places are golden. Read about where to look and how to ask for it in the WVO Filtration Guide, and watch a video showing an oil hunt.

 

Filtering in Winter?

 

Oil filters best when it is thin. When it is cooler or cold out the oil becomes thicker which makes filters unnecessarily clog quicker and pumps work too hard. To mitigate this collect during the day when the sun has the opportunity to warm the container, or use a "bucket heater" to warm the oil up first.

may become in the course of time as important as petroleum"

Handling Oil? 

 

Vegetable Oil can be very sticky on any surface it comes in contact with. It will stain clothing and fabric, as well as garages, driveways, and wood. Be aware of this when filtering as minor precautions can save you alot of mess. For instance, wear gloves, wait for drips to fall before moving hoses, and put down cardboard or a plastic sheet around an area that you use to filter - or choose an area that is okay to get messy, or can be power-washed to be cleaned. Throwing on a jumpsuit or wearing clothes that can get dirty is a good precaution. Read more in the WVO Filtration Guide.
