GC Tek PoliGlassBead · fine polishing filter · down to 3 microns

The last filter in line, and the reason you can see the bottom drain at 6 feet

Two media in one tank: black AlphaBio2 media up top pre-separates the larger solids on the way down, then a bed of true glass beads (not crushed glass) strips the fines. Glass spheres don't bond together the way crushed glass does, so backwash stays easy. GC Tek's test pond — 10,000 gallons on a PoliGlassBead 5K, half the suggested size — went from koi visible only in the top 12" to bottom drain visible at 6 feet in three days.

True glass beads

Spherical beads filter down to ~3 microns and won't clump like crushed-glass media.

AlphaBio2 pre-separation

A sinking layer catches the bigger stuff first so the glass bed does only polishing.

2 HP agitator, 58 psi tank

Agitator standard; blowers now sit below the lid line. 8" clear lid. Fiberglass tank rated above the usual 50 psi.

Polish on demand

Plumb it last with a 3-way valve and divert water through it only when you want the extra polish — or run it full-time.

Polishing, not primary. The PoliGlassBead is designed to run after a main biological filter (AlphaONE, AquaBead, AlphaNANO or a bakki shower), not stand alone. Order it with a WattMizer PLUS system and GC Tek can plumb it into the pad.

Ordering & delivery

How long until it ships?

Most GC Tek filters and systems are assembled to order in Chandler, Oklahoma. Typical lead time is about 3 weeks from order to ship, then transit time. Parts and media we stock ship from Upland, CA within a day or two.

Why no freight at checkout?

Freight for a pressure filter or pre-plumbed system depends on your address, liftgate needs and residential vs. commercial delivery. Charging a flat guess would overcharge some customers and undercharge others, so we quote it to the dollar and confirm with you before shipping.

Can I pick it up instead?

Yes — pick up free at Mystic Koi & Water Gardens in Upland, CA. Choose local pickup at checkout or tell us in the order notes and we'll skip freight entirely.

Who handles the warranty?

We do. As an authorized GC Tek dealer we process warranty and parts through the factory for you — no shipping the tank back across the country.
