Glass Filter Media Grade 1 for Pools (0.5 – 1.0mm) | 20kg Bag

In contrast to other filter media, glass filter media is chemically inert, providing superior purity. In fact, it contains no crystalline-free silica or heavy metals.

The high purity also greatly reduces the initial backwashing requirements, enabling a rapid start-up of your filter.

Raw material is taken directly from household recycling schemes and is 100% recycled glass. Using recycled glass achieves an environmental benefit over the use of natural resources.

Because the glass media has undergone a specialised heat treatment process, degradation is slower and the life span of the media is longer than sand.

Glass removes more materials and pollutants than sand, saving on backwashing, water and chemical treatment costs.

Glass is less susceptible to bio-fouling, the heat-treated surfaces are smooth so require less remedial action and less chemical treatment to kill pollutants.

If your filter requires 50Kg of sand (two bags) then you will need 40Kg of glass media (two bags).

1 x 25Kg bag of sand = 1 x 20Kg bag of glass media

You should never mix glass media and sand in your filter
