Fasco Bath Products
Construction
The first step in our quality-controlled process is to vacuum
form the bathtub using the highest quality cast ACRYLIC. We use
acrylic because it provides the most desirable finish available
for bathware. It is warm to the touch, will net stain, will not
fade, maintains its lustre and is exceptionally easy to clean.
The molded shell is then rigidized and reinforced with a
fire-retardant fibreglass reinforced polyester. Whirlpool
systems and a choice of air massage systems are factory-installed
as necessary. Finally, the unit is mounted on a structural base,
pre-levelled at the factory and ready for installation.
Features and Accessories
A wide selection of standard and optional features are available
including:
- Fully adjustable jets (with colour-matched, chrome or brass
finish)
- Directionally adjustable jets (with colour-matched, chrome or
brass finish)
- Pneumatic switches with or without built-in timers
- Waste and overflow
- Colour-matched skirts
- Deluxe Trime Kits
- Handle Sets
- Tile Flange Kits
Features and options vary by model so check your desired model to
see which are offered.

Aquazur V Filters
A high filtration rate (between 7 and 20 m/h) imposes certain specific technical choices, particularly with regard to selection of the filter media and its depth, backwashing method, and general hydraulics. In response to this, Degrmont provides Aquazur V filters. Aquazur V filters are characterized by a water depth above the filtering layer of at least 1 m, filter media between 0.8 and 1.5 m in depth, and an effective size for the filter media which varies between 0.7 and 2 mm according to the specific application. Aquazur's simultaneous air and water washing, accompanied by surface sweeping, is followed by a water only rinse cycle. Aquazur V filters can be arranged as single filters (with one controller per filtration element) or as double filters (two cells communicating at the top and bottom, and a single controller). The Aquazur filter combines all the features that ensure good filtration and efficient washing. The water being filtered is continually delivered to the filter, completely or partially, for the entire washing period to provide surface sweeping. The Aquazur's washing method, with no bed expansion, prevents hydraulic reclassification of the filter bed, and during washing, the filtered water backwash flow rate is low, which reduces pump sizes and energy consumption. Filtration is resumed by raising the water level, which produces a gradual restart after washing, regardless of the type of control element used. This progressive restart can be extended, if desired, over a period of 15 minutes. It is especially suitable for high filtration rates as filter media depths between 1 and 2 m can be used, and it retains positive pressure during the entire filtration cycle.
The Ultrapulsator (solids Contact Clarifier)
The Ultrapulsator flocculator-clarifier provides a highly effective approach to water purification problems. It is a high-rate clarifier which combines the advantages of a highly concentrated and homogeneous sludge blanket and internal sludge recirculation with the polishing action of tube settling modules. In this type of settling tank (also known as a clarifier), the sludge formed through flocculation is retained within an expanded blanket. Water flows regularly and evenly up through the sludge blanket. The raw water is introduced at the base of the sludge blanket via a distribution system that promotes continuous mixing. The water flocculates as it passes through the 'sludge blanket' and emerges clarified in the upper portion of the unit. In an Ultrapulsator clarifier, water flows upward through the sludge blanket in a cycling or pulsating flow. As a result of this pulsating flow, the blanket remains homogeneous throughout, with no stratification, thus facilitating continuous and effective contact between water and sludge. The most economical means of achieving this pulsating flow is to take the raw water into an inlet chamber from which air is sucked by means of a vacuum device. Sludge is drawn off of the system periodically. One major advantage of the unit is that if too much sludge is drawn off, the resulting water loss does not affect the sludge blanket; operational integrity is maintained. The unit also has no mechanical sludge mixing system that would break up the floc particles already formed. Thus, poor adjustment of the treatment rate or a variation in the raw water pH have no immediate negative effects; a slow variation in the turbidity of the settled water is observed, but this does not produce any massive loss of the sludge in the clarifier. As the clarified water separates from the sludge blanket, a small amount of residual floc will be carried up. The use of tube settling modules in the clarified water removes this residual floc. The floc particles that have escaped from the sludge blanket are deposited on the lower walls of the modules and accumulate there in a thin layer until their cohesion allows them to slide back into the sludge blanket. It is easy to convert an existing clarifier or reservoir into an Ultrapulsator, thereby modernizing old facilities and greatly increasing their flow capacity.
Densadeg Clarifier/Thickener
The Densadeg is an external recirculation high density sludge unit based on the lamellae settling principle. It is a fast, compact and adaptable unit, unaffected by variations in raw water composition and flow rate. The unit reduces the volume of settled sludge compared to conventional clarifiers, which can then be dewatered without further thickening. The Densadeg is comprised of three main components. The reactor, which provides rapid mixing, promotes the formation of dense floc. This floc is then settled in the presettler-thickener, the second component of the Densag. The lower portion is fitted with a thickening picket fence and a bottom scraper, where the thickened sludge is drawn off from the central sludge hopper. Part of the sludge is recirculated to the raw water inlet, thereby ensuring optimum sludge concentration in the reactor at all times. The excess sludge is drained by gravity or pumped away. The sludge is thick enough to be applied to the dewatering system without any additional thickening. The final component of the Densag is the lamellae settling zone. Fitted with Degrmont tube modules, the residual floc is settled and the clarified water is recovered by a system of collection troughs. The Densadeg can be used in a variety of applications: production of drinking or process water (clarification, lime softening), treatment of waste filter backwash water, treatment of industrial wastewater (flocculation, precipitation), or municipal wastewater (physical- chemical treatment, tertiary treatment for phosphate removal, etc.).
Biofor (biological Filtration Oxygenated Reactor)
Degrmont Infilco's Biofor combines and masters two operations in one: biological degradation, and retention of suspended solids. The Biofor is based on the co-current upflow of air and water and the retention of bacteria and suspended solids. This results in a high rate of filtration and provides extended filter runs and an odour-free work place. A Biofor installation is comprised of a battery of identical reactors generally made of concrete and operating in parallel (or possibly in series, in the case of combined removal of carbonaceous pollution with nitrification), a unit for distributing the water to be treated, an access gallery to the automatic valves and pipework, an adjoining bay for the backwash pumps, a bay for the air blowers and compressors, and a treated water tank for wash water. The reactors each include a feed well for water to be treated, a support floor for the Biolite media, and two front-mounted weirs, with surface sloping upstream for collecting the treated water and the wash water. These weirs are protected by a media trap comprised of a stilling picket fence, which eliminates turbulence, particularly in the air scour + water washing sequence of the washing cycle. The placement depth of Biolite® media will vary as specifically required by each application. A key element of this technology is the combination of the aeration and settling phases of waste treatment in one unit. The benefits of the Biofor include more compact installations, improved plant efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and operational flexibility.
