About Your Filter

All Aquatek Backwashing Filters are comprised of two

primary components: (A) Control Valve, (B) Mineral

Tank.

A. Control Valve: Your control valve automatically

performs the 2 primary operations which are com-

monly referred to as cycles. These operations/cycles

are:

1. Service / Filtration: Raw water is flushed through

the media bed and gravel underbedding which

treats water and removes the contaminants de-

pending on the media used and desired result.

3. Backwash: Once the media bed has reached its

predetermined limit of filtration it cleans and re-

plenishes itself through backwashing. Backwash-

ing is a forceful flush that removes the filtered

contaminants and then flushes then down the

drain.

B. The Mineral Tank: The mineral tank contains the

filtration media and is where the the treatment of

the water takes place during the stages mentioned

above.
