A filter cartridge includes a substantially cylindrical filter media having a first end and a second end wherein the second end has an opening adaptable to receive a fluid outlet. The filter media is adapted to allow fluid to pass from an exterior of the filter media to an interior space of the filter media. A divider is positioned adjacent to the exterior of the filter media, and the divider has a closed end connected to the first end of the filter media and an open end that is longitudinally-spaced from the second end of the filter media such that at least a portion of the filter media located adjacent to the second end of the filter media is not directly adjacent to the divider. The divider extends a majority of the distance from the first end to the second end of the filter media.

1. A replaceable filter cartridge for filtering liquids, comprising: a filter media adapted to allow liquids to pass from an exterior of said filter media to an interior of said filter media, and said filter media having a first end and a second end, wherein said filter media has a corrugated structure formed by a continuous sheet of filter media;said second end of said filter media having a bottom cap sealingly connected to said filter media and having an opening extending therethrough and adaptable to receive a fluid outlet for allowing liquid to pass through said second end; anda divider positioned adjacent to said exterior of said filter media, and said divider having a closed end connected to said first end of said filter media and an open end that is longitudinally-spaced from said second end of said filter media such that at least a portion of said filter media located adjacent to said second end of said filter media is not directly adjacent to said divider, and said divider extending a majority of the distance from said first end to said second end of said filter media for allowing the liquids to rise in between the divider and the filter media, and said divider longitudinally extending only between said filter media ends. 2. The replaceable filter cartridge of claim 1, further comprising: said divider being substantially parallel to said exterior of said filter media. 3. The replaceable filter cartridge of claim 1, further comprising: said divider being non parallel to said exterior of said filter media. 4. The replaceable filter cartridge as stated in claim 3, further comprising: said divider having a longitudinal axis and extending radially outward from said closed end of said divider to said open end of said divider. 5. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 1, further comprising: a filter tube connected to said interior of said filter media. 6. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 1, further comprising: said filter media having a substantially cylindrical configuration; andsaid interior of said filter media defined by an inner diameter of said substantially cylindrical filter media to form a column of open space that is coaxial with a longitudinal axis of said substantially cylindrical filter media for receiving filtered fluid that has passed through said filter media. 7. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 1, further comprising: said opening in said second end of said filter media being substantially circular and coaxial with a longitudinal axis of said filter media. 8. The replaceable filter cartridge of claim 1, wherein the divider is sealingly connected to the top end cap. 9. The replaceable filter cartridge of claim 1, wherein the divider is integrally connected to the top end cap. 10. A replaceable filter cartridge for filtering liquids, comprising: a substantially cylindrical filter media adaptable to allow liquids to pass from an exterior of said filter media to an interior of said filter media, and said filter media having an upper end and a lower end, wherein said filter media has a corrugated structure formed by a continuous sheet of filter media;a top cap disposed at and sealingly connected to said upper end of said filter media;a bottom cap disposed at and sealingly connected to said lower end of said filter media and having an opening extending therethrough and adaptable to receive a fluid outlet for allowing liquid to pass through said second end; anda divider positioned adjacent to said exterior of said filter media, and said divider having an upper end sealingly connected to said top cap and an open lower end, and said divider extending a majority of the distance from said top cap to said bottom cap for allowing the liquids to rise in between the divider and the filter media independent of a level of the liquids outside the divider, wherein said open lower end of said divider is longitudinally spaced from said bottom cap such that at least a portion of said filter media located adjacent to said bottom cap is not directly adjacent to said divider, and said divider longitudinally extending only between said filter media ends. 11. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 10, further comprising: said divider defining an interior region between the outside of said filter media and an inner surface of said divider and an exterior region adjacent to the outer surface of said divider, wherein said interior region and said exterior region are in communication at said lower end of said divider. 12. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 10, further comprising: said divider having a substantially cylindrical configuration, wherein said divider is substantially parallel to said filter media. 13. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 10, further comprising: said divider having a frusto-conical configuration. 14. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 10, further comprising: a substantially cylindrical filter tube connected to an inner diameter of said substantially cylindrical filter media. 15. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 10, further comprising: said interior of said filter media defined by an inner diameter of said substantially cylindrical filter media to form a column of open space that is coaxial with a longitudinal axis of said substantially cylindrical filter media for receiving filtered fluid that passes through from said exterior of said filter media to said interior of said filter media. 16. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 15, further comprising: said opening in said bottom cap being substantially circular and coaxial with said longitudinal axis of said filter media. 17. A replaceable filter cartridge for filtering liquids, comprising: a substantially cylindrical filter media adaptable to allow liquids to pass from an exterior of said filter media to a substantially cylindrical, substantially unobstructed interior space partially defined by said filter media, wherein said filter media has a corrugated structure formed by a continuous sheet of filter media;a top cap disposed at said upper end of said interior space and sealingly connected to said filter media;a bottom cap sealingly connected to said filter media and disposed at said lower end of said interior space and having an opening extending therethrough and adaptable to receive a fluid outlet to allow liquid to pass through said second end; anda divider positioned adjacent to said exterior of said filter media, and said divider having an upper end sealingly connected to said top cap and an open lower end, and said divider defining an interior region between the outside of said filter media and an inner surface of said divider and an exterior region adjacent to the outer surface of said divider, and said divider extending a majority of the distance from said top cap to said bottom cap for allowing the liquids to rise in between the divider and the filter media independent of a level of the liquids outside the divider, wherein said open lower end of said divider is longitudinally spaced from said bottom cap such that at least a portion of said filter media located adjacent to said bottom cap is not directly adjacent to said divider, and said interior region and said exterior region are in communication at said open lower end of said divider, and said divider longitudinally extending only between said filter media ends. 18. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 17, further comprising: said divider having a substantially cylindrical configuration wherein said divider is substantially parallel to said filter media. 19. The replaceable filter cartridge stated in claim 17, further comprising: said divider having a frusto-conical configuration. 20.
