Questions & Answers loading...

Filter sand is a granular material commonly used in water filtration systems. It's typically composed of silica sand, which is a natural mineral. The sand particles are carefully graded to ensure optimal filtration performance.

How Filter Sand Works:

  • Mechanical Filtration: As water passes through a bed of filter sand, the particles physically trap impurities, such as dirt, rust, and suspended solids.
  • Sediment Capture: The sand grains act as a barrier, preventing larger particles from passing through the filter.
  • Clarification: Filter sand helps to clarify the water by removing turbidity and improving its appearance.
