SAVINGS ANALYSIS FAQ CONTACT

Construction Savings

More savings are derived from the smaller construction footprint for Defender® filter.

This results in as little as one-fourth to one-sixth of the space required by an equivalently sized sand system, saving installation and rigging time. The lesser operating weight of the Defender® filter reduces the extent to which the floor slab must be engineered. With building costs at an estimated $75 to $150 per square foot, selecting Defender® could generate construction savings in the tens of thousands of dollars.


Additional Construction Benefits:

  • No backwash holding tank
  • Small waste line to sewer
  • Local backwash to waste flow rate restrictions are no longer an issue
  • Operating weight may be as little as 10% of a similar sized sand filter
