DE Filters ![]() |
The DE filter is cleaned by backwashing. The filter when pressure increases 7-10 lbs. over normal operation pressure. However, once the filter has been backwashed, new DE must be added to coat the grids inside the filter. Do this by pouring DE through the skimmer. A simple backwash will not remove all the DE.

The Pool Guy Recommendation:
In-ground Swimming Pools
DE FILTER |
Cartridge/Paper Filters |
Cartridge or paper filters are mainly used in Spas, Hot tubs and above ground pools. Clean up is much easier. When pressure increases 7-10 lbs. over normal operation pressure, Just spray clean with fresh water. When the filters become stained or discolored, It is time to replace them. |
The Pool Guy Recommendation: Above ground swimming pools, spas, hot tubs
CARTRIDGE FILTER |
Sand Filters This style is much easier maintenance. Sand filters work better when slightly dirty. Only backwash when required by the increased pressure. When pressure increases 7-10 lbs. over normal operation pressure. Backwash (reverse the flow of water). Nothing to add. |
The Pool Guy Recommendation: | |
The filter is constructed
to exact manufacturers specifications using the best filter media available.
All of our filters feature durable Reemay spun bound polyester pleats and thermally
bonded end caps for long life. This filter will last 1-2 years depending on how
often you clean it.
