speed pump or controller. OC-1 filtration media is suitable for use on all pools and spas, be they domestic, commercial or hydrotherapy. It is easy to convert an existing sand filter for use with OC-1 with a simple lateral modification. Certikin’s Commercial Manager, Steve Nelson says: ‘”OC-1 is a change in mind set. Since the launch of OC-1, we have had superb feedback and have new installations and the upgrading of existing sand filters every week. The advantages for the installers are

beginning to be fully appreciated.” Suitable for ALL installations - domestic or commercial, outdoor
or indoor, new installations or existing filters, OC-1 is recyclable at end of product life, offering a payback typically within 12 months. Other advantages of switching to OC-1 are that it: • Reduces energy consumption – OC-1 maintains constant flow rates, even when the media becomes dirty. No downtime is required for heating/salt chlorinators/heat pumps going out on low flow. The constant flow means pumps can be run at lower speeds, thus saving energy.
• Reduces the requirement for backwashing and a more efficient backwash so reducing water consumption, chemical usage and heating.
• Lightweight - Can even be shipped inside a filter, easy to handle and super quick and easy to install.
• Less Maintenance - lasts longer than sand, reduces pressure in the system, extending the life of equipment. “OC-1 is super lightweight – a benefit particularly appreciated by the export market,” says Jon
Maskell, Certikin International Business Manager. “It is now possible to ship filters around the world with the media already inside. This saves transportation costs and also time and effort on site. The benefits of using OC-1 are enormous, it truly is a revolutionary product.” ■
