Safe & Natural Replacement For De! 3 Lbs Replaces 25 Lbs Of De
Now you can quit using DE that is harmful to you and the environment. Zeofiber is the perfect replacement for hazardous DE. It is pure white cellulose fiber that works just as well as DE, but it is safe to use and 100% biodegradable. Since you only use 1 lb of Zeofiber vs 8 lbs of DE, you save money and maintain sparkling clean water. After initially ‘changing' your filter, you will have to backwash less often, saving even more money. Add Zeofiber to your DE filter this season and enjoy cleaner water with far less hazard.
ZeoFiber is a pure white cellulose fiber produced from wood fiber. ZeoFiber is a renewable resource that is a 100% biodegradable “GREEN” filtration media. ZeoFiber is a perfect replacement for diatomaceous earth (D.E.). For pool owners with sand and cartridge filters, the addition of ZeoFiber will give your pool water a more polished look and will remove oils not ordinarily filtered out by other filter media.
Use ZeoFiber for Filtration in:
- Private Swimming Pools
- Commercial Swimming Pools
- Sand and Cartridge Filters as a Filter Aid
- NSF/ANSI-50 Approved for use in all D.E. Filters
Finer Filtration with ZeoFiber
In the filter, the cellulose fibers in ZeoFiber nest together to form a highly
uniform filter coating that traps the smallest of particles. The resulting filtration
is higher than that of D.E. giving you cleaner, clearer water.
Longer Filter Cycles
Since ZeoFiber is fluffy (low bulk density) one pound of ZeoFiber replaces eight
pounds of D.E. After your initial charge of ZeoFiber you may see a shorter cycle
(backwashing/recharging) due to the removal of smaller particles to achieve
the higher filtration rate. Once your water is stabilized you will see the time
between your cycles increase at least two times when compared to D.E. cycles.
Use Less ZeoFiber than D.E.
D.E. requires up to eight times more product (by weight) to achieve a filtration
rate comparable to ZeoFiber. The filtering layer formed by the long fibers of
ZeoFiber is quite dense and forms quickly into a thin layer. D.E. on the other
hand, has irregularly sized particles that must form into a thick layer to provide
an adequate filtration screen.
Biodegradable, Environmentally Safe
ZeoFiber is environmentally friendly, non-toxic and biodegradable. Since the
ZeoFiber cellulose fibers are derived from trees, ZeoFiber is a renewable
resource. ZeoFiber dos not contain silica and is safe in the environment.
Economical
With the extended time between cycles you will have fewer backwashes,
using less water chemicals, filter media and spend less time maintaining your
pool or spa.
