Water filtration just got simpler and more effective with our premium 5lb garnet gravel, designed specifically as the perfect under-bed support layer for your water treatment systems.
When water flows through your filtration system, the support layer plays a crucial role in distributing water evenly and preventing channeling. Without proper gravel support, your primary filtration media can become uneven, leading to reduced efficiency and poor water quality. This garnet gravel solves that problem by creating a stable foundation that ensures consistent water flow through every inch of your filter media.
Our garnet gravel is carefully sized at #20 (1/8" x 1/16") to provide optimal void space between particles, allowing water to flow freely while still supporting your primary media effectively. This unique size distribution helps during backwashing cycles, ensuring that all the filtration media gets properly cleaned without any gravel migrating into the wrong layers. The result? Longer-lasting filter performance and cleaner water with every cycle.
Getting started is incredibly easy—just rinse the gravel in a bucket with clean water to remove any dust or debris, then add it to your tank as the bottom layer before your main filtration media. This simple preparation step ensures you're working with clean, ready-to-use gravel that will immediately start improving your system's performance. Whether you're replacing old gravel or setting up a completely new system, this garnet gravel provides reliable support that you can count on.
Beyond traditional water softeners and whole-house filters, this garnet gravel works beautifully in aquarium systems, carbon filter tanks, and mixed-media filtration setups. Its versatility makes it perfect for home improvement projects where consistent water flow and media support are essential. From residential to light commercial applications, this 5lb box provides enough gravel to properly support standard tank sizes while offering the flexibility to adapt to various filtration needs.
