Pool filters to keep your pool crystal clear

A pool filter is the most important part of your pool and works by cleaning out all the dirt, debris, and other substances from the water so that the water in the pool is kept as fresh and clean as possible. This ensures the safety of you and all the other swimmers in the water, and makes sure that your pool always looks nice and clean as well.

There are 3 main types of filters which vary in the methods they use to filter your water and cost. They are sand, cartridge, and diatomaceous earth.

The sand filter is one of the most commonly chosen, and here water is pushed through a bed of filter sand and then removed through a set of lateral tubes at the bottom. The filter area of a sand filter is equal to the area of the filter itself. Dirty water goes into the top of these filters and then the clean water exits out the bottom. Sand filters present the lowest entry cost.

With the cartridge filter water passes through a filter material and the filter captures the debris. Cartridges have much more available area to filter than the sand do, so they will not need to be changed nearly as often. Catridge filters are priced in the mid-range.

The diatomaceous earth filters which are very small and are able to filter out particles as small as 5 microns. These are the most expensive but definitely the most effective as well at filtering out the dirt from the water.

Make sure that you really put some thought into this, and use the type and size of your pool to determine which filter will be best.
