Activated Filter Media
Activated Filter Media - Dryden Aqua
AFM® Activated Filter Media is a direct replacement for sand, doubling the performance of sand filters without the need of additional investments in infrastructure. AFM® resists biofouling, bio-coagulation and transient wormhole channelling of unfiltered water and outlasts all other filter media.
AFM®is a highly engineered product manufactured from a specific glass type, processed to obtain the optimum particle size and shape. It is then exposed to a 3-step activation process to increase its surface area and to acquire superior adsorption properties.
BENEFITS OF SWITCHING TO AFM MEDIA:
- Offers substantial water and energy savings thanks to shorter and slower backwashes.
- Attracts and removes heavy metals (AFM® S), organic matters and microplastics (AFM® ng).
- Significantly lowers chlorine oxidation demand.
- Prevents the formation of harmful disinfection by-products (THMs, NCl3).
- Prevents bacterial growth, bio-coagulation and channelling in the filter bed.
- Provides exceptional water clarity: Certified 1 micron filtration (w/o flocculation).
- Delivers stable filtration performance and outlasts all other filter media.
- Certified for pools, potable water use (NSF/ANSI 50, NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 by WQA), food & drinks markets (HACCP).
Organic matters are the precursor for the formation of Trihalomethanes (THMs), including chloroform. Thanks to its large hydrophobic area and highly mesoporous structure, AFM® ng can filter much finer particles and approximately 50% more organic substances than sand. High filtration performance means fewer disinfectants are used, resulting in healthier water and better air quality at lower costs.

David17/10/2023Crystal Leisure have been involved in my long drawn out indoor pool renovation. I have found Arron a pleasure to deal with. Offering good advice and being a good communicator. The pool engineers who were sent to site to replace my pipework, skimmers and fit out the pump room were a pleasure to deal with. Much more to do but huge confidence in Crystal Leisure that we will end up with a future proofed indoor pool of the highest quality.
