Why Microban Protection?
Water and an ample food source provide the ideal condition for bacteria to quickly multiply and grow. In fact, on an unprotected surface, some microbes can double in number every 20 minutes. And only when they’ve multiplied to hundreds of thousands, can they actually be seen by the naked eye.
The images below show bacteria growth on a standard pool filter cartridge versus a pool filter cartrdge infused with Microban® antimicrobial protection over a 24 hour period.
After viewing these images, you can see how Microban® protection begins to work immediately, disrupting key bacterial cell functions so that bacteria are unable to grow or reproduce on the surface. While on the unprotected surface, bacteria quickly multiply.
How It Works
Microban technology is infused into the filtration fabric during the manufacturing process and becomes part of the molecular structure. The silver technology works continuously to provide an added level of defense that keeps your filter cleaner between cleanings. Antimicrobial protection is limited to the filter and is not designed to replace normal water treatment chemicals.
With the Microban brand, you know you’re getting continuous, durable and effective antimicrobial protection that provides an added level of defense against damaging bacteria for the useful lifetime of your pool or spa filter.

How do products with Microban & antimicrobial protection work?
Reply
Microban® protection is built-in to the product during the manufacturing process. When microbes come in contact with the product surface, Microban protection penetrates the cell wall of the microorganism and disrupts cell functions disabling the microorganism’s ability to function, grow and reproduce.

Does Microban® protection begin working immediately?
Reply
Microban® protection begins to work as soon as the microorganism comes into contact with the product surface. It then works continuously to maintain a consistently lower bio-burden than would be expected on a product without Microban® antimicrobial protection. Under the right conditions, microbes on an untreated surface can double every 20 minutes! Microban protection is not a disinfectant, normal cleaning practices should be maintained.

What types of microorganisms does Microban® protection work against
Reply
Microban® antimicrobial protection is effective against most common bacteria, yeasts, molds and fungi that cause stains, odors and product degradation. Microban technology is not designed to protect users from disease causing microorganisms.
