Filter media is used in water treatment plants to remove particles from water during the filtration process.

Filter media can be, sand, resin, carbon, etc. These filters need to be changed every six to twelve months. The process of changing the filters includes, a deep suction unit, which sucks out all the old filter media. It is then transferred to a licensed disposal facility and new filter media is put in place. A site specific method statement and risk assessment is provided and fully trained operatives used.
