IPW Industries Inc. Filtration-Grade Garnet Gravel (5 Lbs)Help your filtration last longer with under bed support gravel. This gravel is specifically chosen as it does not change the composition of your water even after long term use. The garnet gravel does create more even dispersion for water softeners, carbon filters, mixed media filtration tanks, and water conditioners. Without this dispersion, one specific part of your media may degrade faster than the other and causing damage to the filters and the need for early replacement.Before using this gravel we suggest giving it a quick wash, just in case any dust or debris has settled onto it. Dump your gravel into a large bucket or bin. Then, fill the container with water and using your hands or a sturdy stirring tool agitate the gravel. After that just drain the water and you’re ready to go. This 5-pound bag is enough gravel for any filter cartridge.DetailsGarnet GravelPerfect for Under Bedding Water DispersionPure Stable Garnet Gravel for FiltrationPerfect for Any Backwash SystemIPW Industries Inc. is located right here in the United States of America and we’re dedicated to providing the tools and equipment you need to filter your own water.

Does the job well!
Does the job! With a little time and patience, a handy person can rebed a water softener themselves. After rinsing and before installing, the clean gravel made the start-up backwash process a lot cleaner. My softener now works as good as new again!

Small pebbles
These very small pebbles are exactly what I was looking for to create my own “gritty” substrate for plants that need a fast draining medium. They are 1/4″ or less in size and are dusty so may require rinse off in a collander prior to use. I didn’t rinse them off the last few times I used it. I was in a huge rush and was using such a small amount I mixed in a couple of fingerfuls with my potting soil and perlite to put in a 4″ pot of hoya. The plants I did that with have done fine without the rinse off. I will purchase this product again unless I find this size in a bigger size for smaller price…something I’m always on the hunt for.

Gravel for resin tank
Just ask described. Rinse and use.

Works but a bit fine and requires several rinses
I used it for part of water softener resin replacement and seems to work fine last several weeks. No noticeable water pressure drop at facets. It required 5 rinses because it had really small gravels that may not be filtered by the bottom diffuser.

Product met its criteria
I like the fact that the product arrived early. I like that it was exactly as advertised. I dislike that I had to rinse the gravel several times before clean water ran from it. The price was right and if I had to do it again I would buy it once more.
