Sand filter for pool

Sand filters are the most common type of filter for pools. They are effective and relatively inexpensive. The sand filter is filled with fine-grained sand, which captures dirt particles down to 20 microns.

How does a sand filter work?

When water from the pool is pumped through the sand filter, it passes through the sand. Dirt particles stick to the sand grains and the water flows out clean from the filter.

Advantages of sand filters

• Effective: Sand filters are effective at capturing dirt particles.
• Affordable: Sand filters are relatively inexpensive to buy and maintain.
• Easy to use: Sand filters are simple to install and maintain.

Disadvantages of sand filters

• Dirt particles can damage the sand: Over time, dirt particles can damage the sand, which may reduce the filter's effectiveness.
• The sand must be replaced regularly: The sand needs to be replaced regularly, which can be a costly process.

What size sand filter do I need?

The size of the sand filter should be adapted to the size of the pool. A sand filter that is too small will not be able to filter the water effectively.

How often should I backwash the sand filter?

The sand filter should be backwashed regularly to remove dirt particles trapped in the sand. Backwashing means pumping water through the filter in the opposite direction. This helps loosen the dirt particles from the sand.

How do I take care of my sand filter?

To keep the sand filter in good condition, it is important to take care of it properly. Here are some tips:

• Backwash the filter regularly.
• Clean the filter tank regularly.
• Replace the sand regularly.

By following these tips, you can ensure that your sand filter lasts for many years.
