Matala Replacement Filters
The Aqua2use replacement filters are made for quick service. Lift them out and hose off built-up lint and debris every 4–6 months. After about 3 years, depending on how much greywater you run, replace the media with new ones. Swapping the set in a GWDD or Gravity unit is simple and the complete changeout typically takes under five minutes.

What Makes The Filters Special
The state-of-the-art 4-stage filtration system removes lint, fibers, soap residue, and fine particles — delivering clean, garden-ready greywater safe for subsurface drip irrigation. Its unique 3D fiber structure creates gentle microturbulence and open spaces that foster biofilm growth, a self-maintaining layer that continually refines water quality. This active filtration protects soil health, prevents emitter clogging, and keeps irrigation systems running smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to use the Aqua2use to irrigate my garden?

How does it work?
After being installed by one of our preferred installer or your plumber, the Aqua2use is connected and the water coming from your laundry, bath or shower flows into the unit. The greywater is filtered through the unique 4 Stage filtration system stage. The level detecting pump then pumps the filtered water into your irrigation system. This all happens automatically.
What can I connect my unit to?
