Abstract: A chemical dispensing device for delivering chemical solutions into a liquid flow, alone or in combination with a filter cartridge, wherein said chemical solution is created by dissolving solid chemical contained within a chemical cartridge, the device having an upper conduit member with a sealing flange, flow openings, an internal wall and a dispensing aperture, and a chemical containing lower cartridge, the cartridge having an intake aperture located on the upper portion of its side wall, such that a saturated chemical solution is formed in the cartridge and passes into liquid flowing through the upper conduit member through the dispensing aperture due to the pressure differential of the liquid flowing into through the flow openings of the upper conduit.
