Lane Mountain Company

SiO2 Silica Sand Water Filter Media

     Lane Mountain filter media sand is angular quartz used for both municipal water filtration systems and swimming pool filtration.  Our filter sand is washed, dried, screened and free of contamination.  The unique angular nature of Lane Mountain Filter media is ideal for slow filters or in areas where the benefit of up to a 20% reduction in media requirement is desired.

     Angular nature of the sand is a benefit in slow filters and in some cases the angularity can reduce the requirement for sand media by 20% due to the increased pore space and reduced packing that takes place in the filter bed.

     Our engineers will be happy to work with you to achieve your required effective size and uniformity coefficient at a competitive price.  The Valley Washington rail siding on the Burlington Northern and our access to major Freeways enable us to compete throughout the Northwest and Western Canada.  Timely delivery and prompt customer service can be expected from the Lane Mountain Company "Team".
