Engineered as a premium resin and filter media option, it ensures enhanced performance and longer-lasting water treatment system protection.
Key Benefits
- Effectively reduces iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide for improved water quality
- Extends the lifespan of your water softener and filtration systems by preventing buildup
- Enhances system efficiency, reducing energy and maintenance costs over time
- Durable and stable media that resists degradation even under heavy use
- Compatible with a wide range of filtration and treatment setups for versatile application
How It Works
The FILOX media functions by oxidizing contaminants such as iron and manganese in the water, converting them into solid particles that can be easily filtered out. This process helps prevent staining and unpleasant tastes or odors caused by these elements. Installed inside your water treatment system, FILOX acts as a catalytic filter media, enhancing the overall purification process and protecting downstream equipment.
As water passes through the FILOX bed, its high-density granules trap and remove impurities, ensuring cleaner water output. This makes it an ideal choice for improving water quality in residential or commercial water softening and filtration systems.
What to Expect
Upon installation, you will notice a significant reduction in iron and sulfur-related odors and stains. Within the first few days to weeks, the water clarity and taste will improve noticeably as the media begins removing contaminants effectively. Regular use will maintain these benefits, helping your system run smoothly and reducing the frequency of maintenance tasks.
Long-term, FILOX media maintains its structural integrity and filtration capacity, offering reliable performance without frequent replacement. Proper backwashing and system upkeep will ensure optimal results and extend the media’s lifespan.
