Perma-Bead® Media - is a direct replacement for sand in any sand filter for ponds

[Music] perma beads are a direct replacement for sand in any make or model sand filter perma beads eliminate the clogging compaction and channeling found with sand while providing superb water quality permits are sinking beads and no plumbing changes are needed for installation just take out the sand and pour in the perma beads perma beads never need replacement and are still providing superb water quality and thousands of filters after over 20 years of constant use in filter mode water and dirt are sprayed onto the top of the filter bed with sand the small spaces between the flat sand drains quickly filled with dirt and a sticky biofilm soon grows to cover all sand grains [Music] soon all of the spaces between the sand are filled with dirt and sticky biofilm and the filter becomes a solid block with channels driving dirty water through the filter and back into the pond with perma beads their spherical shape provides optimal space between beads to capture the large amounts of dirt yet minimal points of contact between beads and backwash mode the water is pumped from the bottom of the filter and exits from the top taking the dirt within to waste with perma beads they're super slippery surface properties and spherical shape allow them to quickly become fluidized and release all of the trapped dirt out of the filter with sand the biofilm has glued the sand grains together and the water channels up through the clogged filter pumping lots of water but only very small amounts of dirt out of the filter as you can see back washing with perma beads takes much less time and water to backwash effectively and can quickly restart the filtration process however the waste trapped between the sand grains cannot be back washed from the clogged filter that is still in the system and continues to degrade the water quality also the trapped waste and can become a reservoir for the pathogens as well as toxic anaerobic bacteria these short back washes often only 20 to 30 seconds save thousands of gallons of water over time and helps stabilize water quality perma beads never need to be replaced and have been in continuous use and thousands of filters for over 20 years call or email today for a quote to see how perma beads can save you time money and frustration with your filter you
