Will it reduce water and chemical use?
Yes. It requires up to 25 percent less water when backwashing, which helps reduce chemical loss and saves thousands of litres per year.

Does it help my pump work more efficiently?
Absolutely. It improves water flow, lowers pressure in the system, and eases the load on your pump—leading to energy savings and longer equipment life.

Is this media suitable for mineral and saltwater pools?
It works especially well in mineral pools by binding finer particles during flocculation, but it's also highly effective in saltwater systems.

How long does it last?
Unlike sand that needs regular replacement, glass media lasts up to three times longer and delivers consistent filtration performance.

What size filter is this compatible with?
It's ideal for all media filter types. See below for exact quantity requirements per filter size.

Water TechniX Filter Media Glass is an integral part of any quality filtration system, it provides superior water flow reducing pressure with outstanding results. Ideally it works in conjunction with the mineral pool occulation process, amalgamating finer parts together which are caught in the filter, but is also effective with salt systems. When compared to a sand, zeolite, D.E. filter or cartridge filter, glass filtration media typically can save between 2,000 and 10,000 litres of water per year.
