WHAT TYPES OF POOL FILTERS NEED TO BE CLEANED?
Filter cleanings are necessary for nearly all residential swimming pools. The reason for this really is approximately 98% of residential swimming pools are either DE (diatomaceous earth), capsule, or some combination of the two types called a hybrid. The rest of the 1-2% are fine sand filters that do not disassemble and clean up with no sand alter. Commercial pools in comparison tend to be nearly all fitted with fine sand filters for many reasons.
With a clean and maintained pool filter you will:
- Lower your electrical bill – this alone might pay for the swimming pool filter cleaning.
- Get healthier pool water – 10-20lbs of dirt and crud will no longer maintain your pools circulatory program. Your swimming pool water will no longer end up being pumped through this gunk. Also, you will be at much less risk of algae outbreaks.
- Prolong your pool filter’s lifeless stress on the internals means fewer repairs.
- Prolong the life of your filter pump motor – less resistance from the filter means it can do its job of moving your pool water more easily.
