Glass media itself can last for 8-10 years because it's made from recycled glass bottles. These are harder than standard glass and less prone to erosion. On the other hand, sand media breaks down after about 5 years. This means that media filters can last 5 times as long as cartridge filters, and glass media twice as long as sand! 3.
