Filter Specifications
The following table describes the available filters.
Filter
Purpose
1AAN
Reduces iron, iron algae, and bacteria. Reduces manganese. Also reduces up to 5 ppm Hydrogen
Sulfide with the presence of 2 ppm iron. For regeneration frequency, see 1AAN WaterMax

Filter
Sizing Formula for this model.
1AAE-BWO
Reduces tastes, odors and will reduce most man-made pollutants. Backwash every 3 days or as
needed. Warning: Must not be backwashed for 24 hours after installation.
1AAR-BWO
Reduces suspended matter (turbidity) from water down to the 20–40 micron range. Backwash every
3 days or as needed.
1AAS-BWO
Will raise the pH of most low pH water. The mineral media must be replenished periodically to
maintain optimum bed depth for effective correction. Backwash every 2 days to prevent solidification
of mineral media.
1AAF-BWO
Reduces suspended matter (turbidity) from water down to nominal 20 microns. Backwash every
3 days or as needed.
