Calcium Carbonate Media 0.5 cu ft.

Calcite is an ideal solution for homeowners who wish to neutralize acidic water at its source. By installing our Calcite media in a whole-house system, you can eliminate corrosion caused by low pH water. The calcite calcium carbonate media effectively neutralizes the pH level and helps prevent metal leaching from plumbing fixtures. Its self-limiting properties ensure that it only corrects the pH levels to a non-corrosive state, eliminating any risk of over-neutralization. The periodic backwash filter ensures high service levels by removing excess calcium and preventing packed media beds. This reliable solution offers numerous benefits such as corrosion protection and extended lifetime for plumbing components, making it an essential investment for homeowners looking to improve the quality of their water supply.

Top product features:

  • Self-limiting properties corrects pH levels only enough to reach non-corrosive state, preventing potential metal leaching in plumbing systems.
  • Backwash filter prevents packed media beds, maintaining high service levels and prolonging the lifespan of the media.
  • Calcite needs replenishment as it depletes, indicating a reliable solution for long-term use and maintenance.

Top product applications:

  • Neutralize acidic water at its source for corrosion protection in residential and commercial plumbing systems.
  • Extend the lifespan of plumbing fixtures by preventing metal leaching from copper, lead, and other metals commonly found in pipes.
  • Ensure long-term reliability with periodic replenishment and maintenance to maintain high service levels of calcite media in whole house water treatment systems.
The 3M™ Whole House Water Treatment Media is calcite, a calcium carbonate filter media used to neutralize acidic or low pH water to a neutral, less corrosive effluent level in residential and commercial applications. Calcite is a naturally occurring calcium carbonate media. One of the advantages of the Calcite media is its self-limiting properties, meaning that when used properly for acid neutralization and pH correction, it corrects the pH levels only enough to reach a non-corrosive state. This pH corrected state helps prevent the potential of leaching of copper, lead and other metals found in typical plumbing systems. When used in a 3M water treatment system, such as a backwash filter, the periodic backwashing prevents packing of the media bed and maintain high service levels of the media. Calcite media needs to be replenished periodically as the Calcite depletes. This replenishment rate depends on many factors including pH levels, backwash frequency and filter system capacity.
