A8042-01 Greensand Plus (0.52 Cu/Ft Bag)

Product Overview

GreensandPlusâ„¢ is a black filter media used for removing soluble iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide, arsenic and radium from groundwater supplies. The manganese dioxide coated surface of GreensandPlus acts as a catalyst in the oxidation reduction reaction of iron and manganese. The silica sand core of GreensandPlus allows it to withstand waters that are low in silica, TDS and hardness without breakdown. GreensandPlus is effective at higher operating temperatures and higher differential pressures than standard manganese greensand. Tolerance to higher differential pressure can provide for longer run times between backwashes and a greater margin of safety.
