Tetra™ Block Underdrains*
for Drinking Water Applications
     

Tetra™ U Block
Tetra™ U Block is a high-density, lightweight polyethylene block for water filtration. Hailed by contractors for its easy installation, Tetra™ U Block is easily retrofitted into existing filters. Specify this popular corrosion-free block underdrain for years of dependable service.

  • Easy assembly ensures a tight fit
  • Low maintenance - no moving or wearing parts
  • Low headloss, non-clogging design
  • Even air and water distribution

Tetra™ LP Block
When a lower profile block is called for, consider the Tetra™ LP Block. You get all the advantages of the U Block, plus:

  • Lower profile affords more media depth and height for air/water backwash
  • 6" wider profile means fewer blocks, fewer joints, and less grout
  • Can be cut in half lengthwise to avoid grouting space that will not accommodate a full width block
  • Features Grout-Grip strip for greater installation strength

SAVAGE PLATE®
An underdrain installation is only as good as its media retention plate. Lightweight and easy to install, the SAVAGE PLATE® is a high-density polyethylene porous plate.

  • Removable for inspection
  • Compatible with water treatment chemicals
  • Provides uniform flow distribution at a headloss equivalent to or less than gravel
  • Eliminates gravel layer allowing additional media and/or longer filter runs
