Pool Filters

For the standard pool, the most important piece of equipment is the pool filter and pump system. The pool filter system is the element that keeps your poll water clean and clear, and pleasant to use.

There are three basic types of pool filters. These types are:

• Diatomaceous Earth (DE)
• Sand
• Cartridge

A DE pool filter is comprised of a tank including a set of fabric covered grids (also known as pool filter elements). The fabric of the pool filter elements is coated with a pool filtration substance that is called diatomaceous earth. The DE is a fine, white powder that is found within deposits in the earth. This substance media allows water to filter through, but leaves impurities behind, so that even microscopic particles can be removed from the water. The two types of DE pool filters are vertical grid and the spin type.
