A back-flushable filtered valve including a valve body having an inlet and outlet. The valve includes an inner core disposed within the valve body. The inner core is rotatably coupled to the valve body. The inner core includes an inner core flow path such that when the inner core is turned to a first mode fluid may thereby traverse the valve body. The inner core includes a filter disposed within the inner core flow path that substantially blocks the inner core flow path for particulates greater than the filter sizing. The valve includes a diversion outlet spaced from the valve inlet and the valve outlet and is functionally coupled to the inner core such that when the inner core is turned to a second mode the first side of the filter faces the diversion outlet and fluid backflows therethrough thus cleaning the filter, ejecting particulates out the diversion outlet.
