You betcha. They work GREAT at removing particulates from your water. You will need several replacement socks however, as they plug fairly quickly, and if not changed frequently, will become nitrate factories. IIRC, I had 6-7 spares for mine, so I didn't have to wash them every couple of days.
I took them outside, rinsed them well with the garden hose, then into the washing machine with just a bit of bleach, double rinsed them, then IF they needed it, (your nose will tell you) another rinse with a strong de-chlorinator solution, and out into the sun to dry...
With several spares, I'd soak them in a bucket of mild bleach & RO water until I was ready to wash them...about every 2-3 weeks...
