Stupid question...which end is up?

I was replacing my sediment and carbon filters last night and decided to removed the DI cartridge to clean the housing. (This is a Kent Maxima Hi-S 35GPD) Well, I wasn't paying attention and now I'm not sure which way the cartridge goes back in to the housing. One end allows water to flow down the center of the cartridge, and the other lets water in around the edges of the cartrdige.

Which end should go up?



Thanks,

Tony

So does that mean the side with the holes around the edges goes up, or the hole in the middle?


Thanks!

The hole in the middle with the rubber gasket should go up and the holes around the outside down.
