System Requirements
Designed specifically for multimedia filter configurations that use four-layer media beds. The Watts A7080-50 coarse garnet works with Clack control valves and standard multimedia tanks from 10 inches to 21 inches in diameter. This garnet layer sits beneath anthracite, fine garnet, and sand layers, providing structural support and preventing media migration during backwash cycles. Required bed depth varies by tank size but typically ranges from 3 to 6 inches for the garnet support layer.
