The METALTRAP Filter
. . . don't simply treat metal stains, trap them!!!

The METALTRAP utilizes a new filtration media, that chemically reacts with metals, such as iron, copper & manganese and permanently removes them from the water.  These unique, patent-pending units selectively filter out  stain-causing metals and helps protect your pool or spa from unsightly rusty, tan, brown, green, black or gray stains.  Removes metals that pass through ordinary filters.

The METALTRAP Filter, PURESTART Pre-Filter and the PURESTART 1 Micron Pre-Filter are all ideal for Spa use.  Spas are typically drained and refilled every 3 months, to avoid the buildup of byproducts and organic materials.  A unit suited for a 10,000 gallon pool, can be used to refill a typical spa, 20 or more times.  The savings in treatment chemicals will more than make this a worthwhile investment and help provide better water quality, as well.

• Units are available in 3 sizes to process up to 10,000, 25,000 or 50,000 gallons of water, depending of the level of contamination and the size of your pool or spa.  The gallonage ratings are based on a total metals content of 1 PPM.  Higher metals levels will require larger or additional METALTRAP Filters.
• The 10,000 gallon size unit can be used to refill a typical spa about 20 times or more.
• Use to fill a new pool or spa or to recirculate water to remove metals from a problem pool or spa.
• To fill a new pool or spa, just attach to a garden hose.
• Flow is typically 5-7 gallons a minute and is adjustable, depending on source water quality.
• An absolute must for pool or spas that use well water.
• Helps eliminate sulfur odors.
• Use it to process the water added to plaster mixes, to reduce staining possibilities.
• Helps your existing filter maintain a better looking and stain free pool or spa.
• Use on all new water additions to help assure no problematic minerals are added.
• Recirculate seasonally to help assure better water quality.
• Stain removal can be tedious and expensive:  the METALTRAP Filter helps you avoid those problems.
• No Installation!!!  Simply attach to a garden hose.

• Units are available in 3 sizes to process up to 10,000 25,000 or 50,000 gallons of water, depending of the level of contamination and the size of your pool or spa.

• The 10,000 gallon size unit can be used to pre-filter and fill a typical spa about 20 times or more.

• Use to fill a new pool or spa or to recirculate water to remove organic contaminants from a problem pool or spa.

• To fill a new pool or spa, just attach to a garden hose, to remove contaminants as water is added.

• Flow is typically 5-7 gallons a minute and is adjustable, depending on source water quality.  Heavier contamination levels require slower flow rates:  just turn the valve to increase media contact time.

• An absolute must for pool or spas that use well water or some municipal water supplies.

• Also removes swimmer's wastes, cosmetic residues and dead algae decomposition products.

• Use it to process the water added to plaster mixes, to reduce staining possibilities.

• Helps your existing filter maintain a better looking and stain free pool or spa.

• Use on all new water additions to help assure no problematic organic contaminants are added.

• Recirculate seasonally to help assure better water quality.

• Organic contamination can be worrisome:  the PURESTART Pre-Filter helps provide peace of mind.

• No Installation!!!  Simply attach to a garden hose.

• Units are available for a variety of pool and spa sizes and applications.

• Pool size treats up to 20,000 gallons of water and is 20" (50.8 cm.) in length.

• Spa size can also be used with smaller pools, treats up to 10,000 gallons and is 10" (25.4 cm.) in length.

• No installation is required!!!  Simply attach to a garden hose. 

• Get better quality water and reduce chemical costs. 

• Removes oxidized metals such as copper, iron and manganese.

• Preventing problems saves on chemical treatment, time and effort.

1. Add muriatic acid to lower the pH to 7.0 - 7.2

2. Keep the filter running, for at least several hours, to make sure the pH is uniform.

3. Slowly add 1-quart of POOL REFRESH Part A, through the skimmer, with filter running.  1-quart, per 10,000 gallons should be added.  Take 5-1o minute per bottle, to add the product.

4. Add 1-quart of muriatic acid, for each quart of POOL REFRESH Part A added.  Allow the filter to run for 1 -2 hours.

5. Turn the filter off, to allow the settling action to begin.

6. You'll need 1-quart of POOL REFRESH Part B, for each 10,000 gallons of pool water.  Resume filtering.  Mix each quart of Part B with 3 parts of pool water and slowly pour in front of an operating return jet, to aid in dispersion.

7. Operate pump for about 1-hour and shut off.  This allows the precipitation and removal process to begin.

8. Either vacuum the precipitated minerals to waste and/or allow the filter to remove and suspended debris.

9. Monitor the filter pressure.  If it rises too high, backwash or clean the filter, depending on filter type.  Depending up the nature of your mineral problem, the filter may have to be serviced several times.  Monitor the pressure will help gauge the progress.  The unwanted and potentially problematic minerals are what is being vacuumed away and filtered out . What's left is refreshed and better quality water!
