Questions for: Blue Wave ZeoSand Alternative (2x25lb bag) NA5102

If you have a 175 Lb. sand filter then we would suggest 87.5 lbs. of Zeobest (175 / 2) Since the Zeobest is only sold in 25 lb. increments you would need to purchase 100 lbs. You may view the 25 Lb Zeobest here http://www.inyopools.com/Products/01300006001557.htm and the 50 Lb. Zeobest here http://www.inyopools.com/Products/01301202001558.htm

Zeobest is a great alternative to regular filter sand. It provides DE like filtration (filters down to 3 microns), it's lighter than sand so you half the amount compared to sand. It can also decrease the frequency of backwashing. Without getting scientifically complex Zeobest comes from zeolites. Zeolites are the deposits of volcanic ash from thousands of years ago. It is NSF approved which means that it meets national health and safety requirements. It's also safe to use in all sand filters.

Kim, With Zeobest Sand you'll use 1lb for every 2lbs of reqular sand.

Hi, We will not be able to calculate cubic feet to pounds. Can you send us the manufacture and model of your unit, we can tell you how much Zeobest Sand you will need.
 Reply

I can help you with that. What model is your filter so I can see the amount of sand required.
 Reply

Hello Larry, depending on how much your sand filter hold you divide that by 2. So if it held 200lbs, you would get 100lbs of zeobest. I apologize, but the FH40 model didn't come up to where I could look at how many pounds came with your filter.
 Reply

Hello Mickey, Could you let us know your model number of what unit you have, Triton III doesn't come up with anything.
 Reply

Hi. You would need 150 lbs (6 bags) of Zeo Sand.
 Reply

Hi, Dave. The TR60 filter requires 162.5 pounds of ZeoSand.
 Reply

The TR50 will require 112 lbs. of ZeoSand
 Reply

Hi, Kevin. You will need 50lbs of the Zeobest sand. 
 Reply

I was not able to find specs for the 250L but you would use half the amount you would compared to regular sand. For example, if you have a 300 pound tank, you would use 150 pounds of Zeosand. 
 Reply

For that model filter, you would need 75lbs of zeosand.

Hi, Goody. Yes, ZeoSand is safe to use with the Sustain Chemical Systems.

Hello, You will need 162.5lbs of zeosand.
 Reply

Hi, Marc. Yes, this product is compatible with a salt water pool. 
 Reply

The TA-60D requires 325 pounds of sand. The amount of ZeoSand needed for a filter is half of that sand weight; in this case, that would be around 162 pounds.
 Reply

Hello, This will not have any effect on the mineralizer.
 Reply

Hello, This will last just as long as sand does. 4-5 years.
 Reply

You will need 300lbs of zeosand to replace the 600 lbs of sand that the TR100 filter would use. 
 Reply

Hi Doug, your Triton II TR140 requires 925 pounds of traditional sand, so you will need 460 pounds of ZeoSand.  ZeoSand was made for all sand filters, so it will work great for you.
