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. Usually you would have to remove the inlet and outlet pipes then remove the head to top up the juraperle media. The dome hole port on the vessel allows you to top up the vessel without having to dismatle your systems saving a lot of time and effort. It also allows you to check the level of your media 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.
