Waterco's MultiCyclone water filter awarded Smart Approved WaterMark
Smart Approved WaterMark is Australia's water saving
labelling program for products and services which are helping to reduce
outdoor water use.
Smart Approved WaterMark scheme has been developed to address outdoor
water conservation. It is a voluntary and not-for-profit program that
allows consumers to make an informed choice towards saving water via
the distinctive Smart Approved WaterMark logo.
To obtain the Smart Approved WaterMark label, an independent Expert Panel
must assess and approve all products, services and organisations.
The Smart Approved WaterMark scheme is managed by a Steering Committee
comprising of Australia's peak bodies of the urban water industry and
leading authorities on outdoor water use which includes the Water Services
Association of Australia (WSSA), the Irrigation Association of Australia
(IAA), the Nursery and Garden Industry Australia (NGIA) and the Australian
Water Association (AWA).
Save up to 7,000 Litres of Pool Water
MultiCyclone is the brilliant new pre-filtration device that can help you
save up to 7,000 litres of water a year in an average pool and reduce filter
maintenance.
An average sand filter may require approximately 4,000 to 8,000 litres of
water a year to maintain it. Sand filters require an occasional backwash and
rinse [on average] every month to 2 months, depending on the dirt load of the
pool and the size of the filter.
Yearly Backwash
Each backwash and rinse equates to an average of approximately 700 litres.
If you backwash [on average] every month, your pool filter requires
approximately 8400 litres of water a year. 700 litres x 12 months [once a month]
= 8400 litres.
If you backwash [on average] every 2nd month, your pool filter requires
approximately 4200 litres of water a year. 700 litres x 6 [once every two months]
= 4200 litres
Cuts Wasteful Backwashing
Based on the principals of centrifugal water filtration - just like a cyclone -
MultiCyclone collects 80% of the dirt that clogs your filter before it gets there.
It drastically reduces filter backwashing and filter cartridge maintenance.
Reduce Filter Cartridge Maintenance
If only 20% of the swimming pool dirt load reaches the filter, backwash frequency
is reduced by 1/5th. Instead of once every 1 - 2 months, the filter needs to be
backwashed approximately twice a year.
Instead of every 6 months, the filter needs to be backwashed approximately once a year.
How it Works?
Incoming water is guided by a diverter plate so that it enters multiple hydro
cyclones tangentially, generating a strong centrifugal effect.
This spins the sediment out to the hydro cyclone's wall and then spirals it down
to the sediment sump, while the cleansed water spirals upwards.
The accumulation of sediment can be visibly monitored through the MultiCylcone's
clear sediment sump. The MultiCyclone is cleaned by simply opening its purge valve.
It only takes 15 litres of water to flush MultiCyclone, saving you time and money.
Easy to Install
MultiCyclone is easy to install and fits to most existing pool filtration systems.
The MultiCyclone can be easily retrofitted between the pump and existing filter.
Minimal Maintenance
There are no moving parts to wear out and replace, no filter media to clean or replace.
It has to be the simplest way to save up to 7,000 litres of water every year yet invented!
