Five Star Filtration
About
Five Star Filtration, based in Conroe, Texas, manufactures continuous-operation water filtration systems for municipal and industrial water treatment, with a particular focus on water reuse applications. The company's two core product lines both carry California Title 22 approval for recycled water use. The Five Star Disk Filter uses a fixed-disk, rotating-backwash design that allows individual disks to be isolated and serviced while the rest of the system continues filtering, eliminating the need for full shutdown during maintenance. The filter media are self-cleaning woven stainless steel, and the system can be installed in concrete basins, carbon steel painted vessels, fiberglass tanks, or stainless steel vessels, with all internal and submerged components made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel or non-metallic materials. A retrofit variant converts aging Traveling Bridge Filters and continuous backwash sand filters to disk filter technology. The Five Star Upflow Sand Filter is a gravity-driven dynamic bed filter that removes suspended and colloidal solids without interrupting filtration for backwash cycles, providing a continuous supply of filtered water. Both systems operate under PLC or relay control for unattended operation. Five Star Filtration targets water reuse, municipal effluent polishing, and industrial process water markets, designing equipment for continuous duty with low lifecycle costs.
