Exclusive Lakos Underdrain – Reduce Water and Energy Use

Precision-engineered underdrain with industry-best open area encourages optimum/even flow across the entire filter media bed – without dead spots or channeling. This helps capture more organic matter while allowing water to pass freely. 

The benefits of this underdrain design extend to backwashing as well. A greater open area leads to consistent and efficient backwash, reducing pressure and clean water required to remove captured matter.

No gravel media bed required.

Key System Components

Superior LAKOS Design
Water Uptake Kit
Automatic Solenoid Kit
Pressure Gauge Kits

Full Coverage Lateral Pattern – LAKOS underdrains cover the entire media bed and feature an open area of 3.6 times (48 in.) greater than the inlet – resulting in zero dead spots, allowing greater flow-through, and eliminating the need for gravel.

Filter and pressure gauge combination eliminates additional connections to the manifolds – reducing the potential for leaks at manifolds.

Solenoid valves play a crucial part in the backwash cycle as they initiate the actuation of each backwash valve. Solenoids can be turned to the ON position both manually or automatically by a backwash controller.
