Superior Media for Sand Filters

Vitroclean has been a proven alternative filter media for over 15 years. Just 40 pounds of Vitroclean replaces 50 pound of sand and lasts 50% longer - typically 7 to 10 years.

100% Recycled Glass

Vitroclean recycled glass is a direct replacement for silica sand. Using our proprietary milling technology, we remove contaminates to produce a clean, high quality filter media. Vitroclean offers you the safest, most reliable and cost effective way to upgrade your sand filter system.

Safe and Easy to Use

Vitroclean installs in any standard sand media filter. No sharp edges or hazardous crystalline silica dust. We recommend the use of Vitroclean Pebble in the bottom of the filter to cover the laterals. This is critical, especially on larger filters to insure proper diffusion and flow.

Longer Lasting

Vitroclean lasts 50% longer than typical silica sand. Doesn't clump or channel like silica sand 100% of the filter bed fluidizes for the life of the media. Does not require a special 'recharging' regime, like zeolite products.

Dramatic Improvement in Water Quality

Pool owners quickly see the difference in water clarity. Vitroclean filters substantially better than sand or zeolite. DE quality down to 5 microns without the hassle of
DE.

How Much Vitroclean to Use

40 lbs. of Vitroclean replaces 50 lbs. of sand. Determine the amount of Vitroclean you need by multiplying the amount of sand by 0.80.

Pea Gravel or Vitroclean Pebble is recommended for all filters using more than 200 lbs. of sand. Use enough pea gravel to cover filter laterals. We recommend using 30% Vitroclean Pebble and 70% Vitroclean for best results.

Examples

300 lb. filter requires 175 lbs of Vitroclean and 75 lbs Vitroclean Pebble or 250 lbs Vitroclean with pea gravel
500 lb. filter requires 275 lbs Vitroclean and 125 lbs Vitroclean Pebble or 400 lbs Vitroclean with pea gravel.
