Detailed Installation Instructions 5-Year Control Head Warranty 10-Year Tank Warranty Product Description Sediment (floating particulates, sand, clay, etc.) and turbidity (suspended solids that cause cloudiness) are common problems in a wide variety of water situations. Removal of these contaminates provides clearer, cleaner water that is more appealing to the eyes. Backwashing sediment filters offer a distinct advantage over typical cartridge filter systems with significantly reduced maintenance requirements. Since the system automatically backwashes itself there are no filters to change, which not only cuts down on maintenance time but costs as well. Utilizing Filter-Ag media, this system is capable of removing particulates as small as 20 (microns). For comparison, the width of a human hair is about 70 microns and the limits of human visiblity with the naked eye is about 40 microns. Controlled by the Fleck 5600 control head, this system automatically backwashes. The backwash process simply forces water rapidly through the system in reverse direction, lifting the media and flushing accumulated particulates down the drain. Made by Fleck, the #1 manufacturer of control heads in the US, the mechanical control head is one of the most popular heads on the market.
