Summary:A filtration system for a laundry treating machine is provided. A filtration agitator (56) extends upwards from an impeller base (38) and defines a generally hollow cylindrical interior, the filtration agitator (56) having one or more water inlets (58) along its perimeter to permit passage of water from a treating chamber (32) into the interior and one or more water outlets (62) along its perimeter to permit passage of the water out of the interior. A removable cylindrical brush assembly (66) is provided, that, when installed to the filtration agitator (56), extends along the vertical length of the agitator and defines a sequence of filtration elements (70, 74) through which a water flow passes from the water inlets (58) to the water outlets (62). The water flow is configured to pass over the sequence of filtration elements (70, 74) in a predefined order to remove particulates from the water flow during a wash cycle.
