How the media works

The secret to the system’s efficiency lies in its Turbidex graded filtration media. This specialized media is engineered to capture the tiniest sediment grains—down to 5 microns—which are responsible for that cloudy, sandy water appearance. As water flows through the media bed inside the tank, these fine particles are trapped deep within the media’s layers. Over time, the Fleck 5600 SXT valve initiates a backwash cycle, reversing the flow to flush away the accumulated sediment safely down the drain. This self-cleaning process keeps the media fresh and effective, ensuring your household water remains free from sand and cloudiness without manual intervention.
