Our Whole House Arsenic Filter system consists of a 24/7 uninterrupted monitoring system, testing ports, and a highly specialized media called MetSorb HMRG which adsorbs both pentavalent (Arsenic V / Arsenic 5 / Arsenate) and trivalent (Arsenic III / Arsenic 3 / Arsenite) forms of arsenic, as well as a wide range of heavy metals from water.
The active ingredient in the MetSorb media is titanium dioxide. Similar to other metal oxide media, MetSorb reduces arsenic and heavy metals by permanently adsorbing them (binding them to the media). Adsorption efficiently reduces arsenic and heavy metals in a wide variety of water conditions, however, higher removal rates will generally occur at lower pH levels.
MetSorb Arsenic Filter Media
- minimal backwash requirements reduces water waste
- will not "dump" arsenic upon media exhaustion
- spent media meets requirements for non-hazardous landfill disposal
- does not require chemical regeneration
- low cost per gallon treated - long media life in most applications
- less affected by competing ions than competitive technologies
- made in the U.S.A.
