When we are asked, \u201cWhy does my water look off?&#8221; or &#8220;Why isn&#8217;t my water crystal clear?\u201d a dirty filter is often the issue. We tend to see three different types of filters at the pools we service.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sand Filters<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It\u2019s the oldest form of pool filtration. Uses Silica Sands as the filter media and should have the sand changed every 3-5 years or after a green pool service.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cartridge Filters<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Newest form of pool filtration. The filter media is spun-bonded polyester or treated paper and will filter down to 10-25 microns. Cartridge filter elements are considered replaceable. We recommend filter cleanings once every 2-3 months and filter replacement yearly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diatomaceous Earth (D.E.)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> D.E. removes the smallest particle size of any pool\/spa filtration device. Tiny fossilized skeletons of sea plankton are used to trap undissolved material. The filter range is typically between 2-6 microns (a grain of table salt is 100 microns). We recommend cleaning your D.E. filter every 6-8 weeks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Need your pool filter cleaned?
