Emailed Prately about pricing on zeolite, the one sales consultant advised me on a new product they have just launched which I have received from them in pdf and word format. I am just unsure on how to host a pdf\doc file here.

Maybe I can email this to someone and they host it here???

Seems interesting and definitely worth the read......claims it removed ammonia from water etc etc

copy and paste rather ;p

Hi,

copy & paste!

it's not a link, they were documents emailed to me so cannot copy and paste as they're physical documents on my local pc

I'll do a screen dump and host as an image

here we go..

Hi,
Thanks Cliff -

I wonder what the difference is between their zeolite and their clinosorb?

As far as I can see it is simply all zeolite but different sizes. Zeolite is mined as rocks then processed through crushers to give garvel size pieces and right down to a powder.
It is a remarkable substance and there are different grades mined in different parts of the world - much like bentonite.

Zeolite - the fine granules or powder can also remove odors. Sprinkle on the carpet leave over night then vacuum.

You can make water filters with it. Filters tap water rally well - very similar to activated charcoal.

There was a blend of bentonite and zeolite powder on the market some years ago. Worked very well in ponds.

Under a microscope zeolite looks remarkably like siporax. It has a massive surface area.

Regards,
Chris

I use sand mixed with some gravel in my sandfilter. Must say, the weekly backwash/stir with the hand is a bit of a pain.

With zeolite, will that still be necessary or can one just backwash?

Then the price for a 2 bag sandfilter- on Pratley's website, they mention Clinobrite 814 and Pratley Clino Natural Zeolite, but no prices. Has anyone got an idea of the price?

But I'm jumping the gun. Im filling my pond since last night. Will be 16 000l- double the size of the previous one

Price is R143 for a 50kg bag
