Graded Density Filter Media - Filters are constructed
so that the spaces between the fibers are increasingly
smaller towards the inside of the filter. With this design
the larger particles are trapped on the outer layers and
the smaller particles towards the center.
|
 |
Activated Carbon - Carbon is made from a wide variety of materials such as wood, peat, nut shell and petroleum. Activation oxidizes all particles on the surfaces of the carbon particles, leaving the surfaces to attract and hold Organics along with taste & odors like chlorine.

Scale Inhibitor - An FDA compliant food grade mineral consisting of Polyphosphate and Silicate compounds, which are colorless, tasteless, and odorless. This unique combination works in two ways to inhibit scale and corrosion caused by hard water. 1) Sequesters or “Ties up” calcium and magnesium. 2) It also acts to coat all internal piping with a slippery material called silicate which will not build up on itself.

What Filter Can and Can't Remove
What Filters Can Remove
- Graded Density will remove Dirt, Sediment, and Turbidity.
- Will remove CYSTS if Cyst Rated, NSF Class 1 Std. 53.
- Carbon Filters can Reduce Chlorine > 99% (NSF, Std 42, Class I).
- Carbon Filters can Reduce gasses such as Hydrogen Sulfide.
- Carbon Filters can be effective at reducing VOC's.
- Filters can be effective at reducing scale formation by
removal of small dirt particles. (Snow Flake Effect) .
What Filters Can't Remove
- Remove or Reduce T.D.S.
- Remove or Reduce Salts.
- Remove or Reduce Hardness.
