Description
An Automatic Before Tank Multimedia Sand Filter is a whole-house filtration system designed to remove sediment, dirt, sand, silt, rust, and other particles from water before it enters your storage tank or home plumbing system.
How It Works:
-
Multimedia Filtration – The filter contains multiple layers of filtration media, typically including:
- Gravel: Supports other layers and improves water distribution.
- Silica Sand: Captures fine sediments and particles.
- Anthracite or Activated Carbon: Enhances filtration by removing organic impurities and odors.
- Garnet: Helps in filtering out very fine contaminants.
-
Automatic Backwashing – The system is equipped with a control valve that periodically flushes out trapped debris and recharges the filter media. This automatic cleaning process maintains efficiency without manual intervention.
-
Installation Before the Tank – This filter is installed before the main water storage tank to:
- Prevent sediment buildup in the tank.
- Protect downstream appliances and plumbing.
- Improve overall water quality before further treatment.
Benefits:
- Removes sediment and turbidity – Improves clarity and quality of water.
- Extends the life of plumbing and appliances – Reduces wear and clogging.
- Low maintenance – Automatic backwash system reduces manual cleaning.
- Enhances efficiency of RO & softener systems – Prevents clogging of finer filters.
