What makes a Sionix system superior to conventional methods?
Sionix systems remove more than 99.5% of particles in water, and can filter down to 1 micron. Sionix systems provide an absolute barrier to bacterial and parasitic organisms, particularly Cryptosporidium (3 to 4 microns) and Giardia lamblia (5 to 7 microns). Conventional methods remove some particles, then attempt to disinfect with chemicals like chlorine. Cryptosporidium and Giardia lamblia are extremely resistant to chlorine. The use of chlorine increases the likelihood of Trihalomethanes (THM’s), dangerous byproducts linked to health hazards. Sionix requires few chemical filter aids, and eliminates or greatly reduces THM’s. Back to Top.
