Fleck AFM Filter with AFM Media

AFM® is an inert, amorphous aluminosilicate (glass) manufactured by up-cycling post-consumer green and brown glass bottles and operated specifically for the production of activated glass water filtration media. AFM® is very popular for swimming pool filters, for water purification plants (gravity filters) and for industrial water treatment filters. AFM® Activated Filter Media is a direct replacement for sand, doubling the performance of sand filters without the need for additional investments in infrastructure. AFM® resists biofouling, bio coagulation and transient wormhole channeling of unfiltered water and never needs to be recharged or replaced. 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 by up to 300 times for superior mechanical and electro-static filtration performance. The Fleck AFM Glass Media Vessel is used to capture sediment, dirt, rust and other particles from water. The Glass media will filter the water down to around 3 microns (same as most “throw away” cartridges). The glass media is reusable and can be backwashed to remove the particles captured inside.
