Description
Carbon filtration is commonly used in drinking water, private water supplies and commercial applications thanks to its ability to adsorb and remove a number of contaminants such as chlorine, VOC’s and even some heavy metals. Our Backwashing Carbon Vessels are the go-to solution for high flow rate carbon filtration where a traditional carbon cartridge will not achieve the required flow rate. The recommended flow rates for these systems are based on de-chlorination, for colour or organics removal the peak flow rate is approximately 20% of that for de-chlorination.
Each system is supplied partially assembled, with some of the valve programming already complete, meaning that some assembly will be required on site. Systems come as standard with a Pentair Clack WS1 control valve, with 1” inlet and outlet.
How Often Do I Need To Replace The Carbon In These Backwashing Carbon Filters?
It is recommended to replace the carbon media on average every 3-5 years depending on water quality. If you start to notice chlorine breakthrough or the carbon media feels slimy, it should be replaced sooner.
