I wish to let all know in the Aquatic family that Goulburn Aquatic Centre recently changed our gravitational filters with Zelbrite Filter Media and found the product to be of high quality. We have been using Zelbrite Filter Media in our Indoor pool for approximately 10 years with great water quality and the best part is having to perform less frequent backwashing. With Goulburn’s lack of water this has been of great benefit.

I can strongly recommend this product to anyone considering changing from sand or any other product to give it a go. After 5 months of having Zelbrite Filter Media in our 50m pool we have had no issues with our water quality even through our hazardous periods of smoke/ dust residue that have plagued Goulburn last summer.

Over the course of my life so far l have had 3 pools, each of them with sand filters, until on advice about 12 years ago I replaced the sand in my current pool with Zeolite.

Immediately I noticed much clearer water and a longer interval between backwashing, something I find wasteful of water.

By now I would have replaced sand at least 2 times, so I appreciate the longevity of Zeolite and the simple process of regeneration.

We previously had to change our sand filters every 18 months. Using Zeolite we get far longer usage, clarity of our water has improved, and customers are commenting on the quality of the water. We are happy to talk about and recommend the use of Zeolite and the results at our pool.
