HOW OFTEN TO CLEAN YOUR POOL FILTER

Your pool filter should be cleaned at least every six months. If you don’t clean your pool or spa filter twice a year, it could damage the many components of your system. Our experienced team is available to professionally clean your pool filter and determine whether we need to install a new filter cartridge. Rest assured that Emerald Pools and Spas chooses cartridges made from the highest quality material available in the pool industry.

HOW TO CLEAN DIFFERENT TYPES OF POOL FILTERS

Three different types of filters are available for use with in-ground pools: diatomaceous earth (DE), cartridge, and sand. Typically, the size of your pool determines which filter you likely have. If your pool filter needs to be replaced, a good rule of thumb is to choose a filter at least one size larger than you think you need.

Diatomaceous (DE) earth filter

This natural, eco-friendly water polisher can trap debris as small as 5 microns. Made of tiny fossil exoskeletons, the heavy-duty DE creates balanced water flow throughout the filter tank.`

Cartridge filter

This type of filter can handle high-flow rates with optimum hydraulic performance. Corrosion-resistant, it’s long-lasting and provides the clearest water possible.

Sand filter

Unlike the other two filter types, we recommend the sand be changed once every 3 to 5 years, depending on whether the sand has “rounded”.
