Pool filter cartridges are the silent partner, the crystal-clear pool water clean and fresh help. Pool filter cartridges work 24 hours a day filtering out even the smallest contaminants and debris from the pool water.
There are three types of pool filters, sand, cartridge and DE (diatomaceous earth). In this article we will focus on cartridge filters, but for clarity I want to give a brief overview of all three types.
SandFilter
Sand filters remove impurities from the sand to collect and attract the debris. Sand filters are washed (with the filter in reverse) to remove the waste. This is a very manual process that must be done every few weeks.
DE
Diatomaceous earth is extracted from a substance to coat "grids" in the filter. These grids capture the contaminants. As more impurities are detected, the pressure starts to rise. When the pressure increased up toLevel that you manually backwash the sand filters as filters and then "shop" with more DE powder.
Cartridge
Pool filter cartridges work by passing water through a fine filter area. This filter collects all surface impurities that happen and keep trying until you clean or replace the filter cartridge.
Cartridge filters have a surface of sand filters. This makes maintenance easier and less congested.Cartridge filters also operate at a pressure much lower than that of sand. This leads to a lower pressure at the pump again, in order to have a greater flow of water through the system.
They can filter out everything except the pool filter cartridges large at 5 to 10 microns. To put this in perspective, a grain of salt about 90 microns in size. All under 35 microns is invisible to the naked eye.
Pool filter cartridges are very popular because they are very easy toand maintain relatively inexpensive. Cartridge basic maintenance can be performed simply with detergent rinse the cartridge using a garden hose or dip. However, the best way to ensure a sparkling clean pool and just replace.
The replacement cartridges is very simple and you do not even need the help of a professional. Simply remove and discard the old filter and replace it.
Make sure you get your new filter before you have the old one. AReplace your pool filter cartridge, the number of brands, sizes and part (if available). Always check the size of the cartridges that you are trying to replace you. The cartridges are the preferred method for many pool owners because they are easy to replace, and are a very economical way to empty the pool in the crystal.
