While the Model 1.1 is an excellent choice for a bead filtration system within a given price range, the Model 1.1-B far exceeds the performance of the standard 1.1 at a slightly higher initial cost. Carefully compare both filters performance data. The good news is that after April 1st, 2001 we will fit the Standard 1.1 with the necessary bulkheads for a later simple backyard conversion to the Model 1.1-B. So if your budget can't go the 1.1-B at first.You can perform the conversion yourself with a screwdriver and some PVC cement. We are making this improvement to better accomodate our customers with great flexibility in upgrading to a Dynamax blower system.
