Product Description
This kit includes:
10" x 35" Vessel
Manual backwashing head, 1" Inlet/Outlet Ports, 3/4" Drain
Riser and screens
5 GPM External Drain Line Flow Control (DLFC) 3/4"
1 x 25 Kg Juraperle
These vessels come complete with a manual backwashing head. With a simple turn of the handle your media will be backwashed with the water going to drain. Once the water is runing clean the handle can be turned back into "service" position. A great economical alternative for an automatic backwashing head. It is also a good option when power is not available.
The juraperle (calcium carbonate) raises pH by slowly dissolving into your water. This means the media needs topping up from time to time.
The consumption rate of the juraperle depends on site conditions.
Note: If the inlet water contains iron or manganese it is recomended to use a backwashing unit instead to prevent media binding.
