AFM (Activated Filter Media)
When choosing filter media (sand or glass), there are a few things you’ll want achieve: low operating costs, safe water (no bacteria), clear water, healthy air and sustainability.In the past, you might have thought you’d need to pick and choose which of these features are most important to you, and select the filter media that best meets one or two of these needs. Well not anymore!
AFM ng was developed by Marine Biologists who specialise in Aquarium and Water Treatment systems, and is certified to be as safe as swimming in drinking water! (NSF 50 & NSF 61)*
- Lowest operating costs
- AFM ng saves backwash water, reduces chlorine consumption, and reduces pool maintenance.
- Safest water
- AFM ng is made from pure selected glass which is safe to touch, and won’t cut you. It is exposed to a patented 3-step activation process which makes the glass self-sterilising to prevent the transmission of bacteria.
- Healthiest air
- AFM ng prevents the formation of that harmful ‘chlorine smell’ (called trichloramines) so you can breathe easy.
- Clearest water
- With a certified 1-micron filtration rate (that is incredibly small!!), AFM ng is certified to surpass the performance of any sand or other glass filter media in the world, to provide exceptional water clarity.
- Most sustainable filtration
- AFM ng outlasts all other filter media – a guaranteed return on investment! It saves resources such as water, chemical usage, and energy, thanks to a more efficient and slower backwash.
