Swimming Pool Filters

Pentair Clean & Clear Plus

This four cartridge filter is a great choice for home pools. It provides clear clean water and can usually go about 6 months between filter cleans.

Pentair Clean & Clear Filter

The Pentair Clean & Clear is a single cartridge filter that works well for small features such as standalone spas, water features and perhaps above ground pools.

Pentair FNS Plus Filter

The Pentair FNS Plus filter is their flagship DE filter. It has a fiberglass tank and uses a standard grid set (7 full + 1 partial).
This filter comes in 36, 48, and 60 square foot sizes and requires a backwash valve (either push pull or multiport).

Pentair Triton C Sand Filter

The Triton family of sand filters has been a workhorse in the pool business since we were using bronze pumps and gate valves. It comes in sizes with flow rates from 60 to 140 gallons per minute.

Cartridge Filters

Cartridge filters have become the standard choice for most inground residential pools in Texas. They offer good water quality and fairly simple maintenance, without the costly maintenance required of a DE filter.

Pentair Clean & Clear Plus

320/420/520 Square Feet

This is a 4 cartridge unit that provides good filtration for a typical home pool.

We recommend cleaning this with a booster pump rather than just using a garden hose.  We provide this service as a part of our semi-annual maintenance package.

 

Pentair Clean & Clear

50-200 Square Feet

This is a single cartridge unit that is good for a small body of water such as a fountain or a spa.

You could also put it on a small pool, but we do not recommend it because you will end up needing to clean it very often.

 

Hayward SwimClear

225 – 700 Square Feet

This is another 4 cartridge unit equivalent to the Clean & Clear Plus and a good choice for a home pool.

We recommend cleaning this with a booster pump rather than just using a garden hose.  We provide this service as a part of our semi-annual maintenance package.

Jandy CL Series

460/580 Square Feet

This is another 4 cartridge unit.

We do not sell it because we have seen a several issues with their filter tank bottoms splitting.

 

 

Diatomaceous Earth (DE) Filters

These are used almost exclusively on home pool. Offers the finest filtration rate but much higher maintenance costs and only marginally better filtration than cartridge filters. Installed prices INCLUDE push pull backwash valves.  Multiport valves are $100 extra.

Pentair FNS Plus

36,48,60 square feet

Pentair Quad DE

We do NOT recommend this filter at all.  If you prefer a DE filter, we recommend a FNS plus, but better yet, look at a cartridge filter.  It will give you fine filtration for a home pool and lower maintenance costs.

Hayward ProGrid DE

This is Hayward’s version of the DE filter. It is a good quality filter. We have sold some of them and had good results, but we primarily sell Pentair because that is most popular in our market.

Jandy DEL,DEV

This is Jandy’s version of the DE filter. We do not sell it because we have seen a several issues with their filter tank bottoms splitting.

The other brands do not seem to have these issues.

 

Sand Filters

Sand filters are primarily used on semi-public pools (hotels, apartments, health clubs, etc) because the pools experience a debris load that would require an excessive amount of backwashing and filter cleans on cartridge and DE filters.  The filtration rate is not as fine as a DE or Cartridge filter, but it can be assisted with clarifiers and by maintaining a borate program for the water.

Triton C Sand Filter

30″/36″ models available

This is the workhorse of the industry and has been for the 40 years I have been in the industry.  The Triton C is the commercial version with the larger top opening

This can be matched up with a side mount push pull or multiport valve.

Tagelus D Sand Filter

24″/30″ models available

This is a less expensive version of Pentair’s sand filter.  It is not as easy to work on, but is used on many home pools.  

It comes with the multiport valve.
