Swimming Pool sand Filters

Keeping a pool clean calls for a multi-level maintenance strategy. The pools grate and skimmer
baskets will catch the bigger, more visible items that float by. Micro-scopic bacteria require
sanitizing chemical additives. For most of the other stuffthe little particles that can make your
water look cloudy and disagreeablethe filter is the best defense.
There are three types of filter systems: sand, cartridge, and diatomaceous earth (DE). All three
systems are effective and will keep your water clean. The cartridge filter requires less
maintenance, so it is rising in popularity.

Sand

Though cartridge filters are popular, Swimming Pool sand Filters are still very common. They rely on very fine
particles of sandfiner than what youd find at the beachto catch small particles you dont want
in your water. Compared to other types of filters, sand is a little less effectivethat is, it will let
some smaller particles pass through into the pool. In addition, sand needs to be cleaned
manually every few weeks and changed at least once a season.

Cartridge
These are like the water filter you may have under your kitchen
sink. Water passes through the filter and catches small, offending
particles. Generally, cartridge filters have more square feet of
catching area than sand filters, so they need to be cleaned less
often; high-end models will last a whole season. And they are
easy to clean: Just hose them off. In terms of effectiveness, they
are between sand and DE filters for particle-catching ability. They
work best with low water pressure, so they partner well with
energy- saving pump systems.

DE (Diatomaceous Earth)

These Swimming Pool sand Filters contain a fine powder of diatomaceous earth, which
is actually fossilized exo-skeletons of tiny diatoms. The powder
coats the filter and works like a sieve to remove particles. This
type of filter is the most effective at keeping the water clean.
Whichever type of filter you choose, good maintenance will help
keep your whole pump/filtration system working efficiently. To
gauge when its time to clean the filter, keep an eye on the pressure, or psi, level in your pool.
Take note of the pressure level when the filter is clean. When you notice that the pressure has
risen about 10 psi, its time to clean the filter. The water circulation system for all types of filters
works best at low water pressure levels.
