Pool Filters, Filtering Systems and Filter Cartridges for Swimming Pools

July 17, 2010 - PRLog -- Maintenance of Swimming pools draws attention, especially in people who seek a safe, recreational pool and not an oversized mosquito infested pond. Creation of such a safe and vivid swimming pool is possible with the installation of filters and filtration systems. Pool users need to locate brands that manufacture the latest in pool equipments. Just installing say a Unicel cartridge filter is not enough. What is more important is the know-how of properly using it.

Installation of a cartridge filter certainly stops the germination of algae and mosquitoes in the pool. The reason is cartridges are designed to trap all dissolved impurities in the water. Using a pump also becomes essential for the proper functioning of a filter. The reason is pumps circulate the water of a pond and filters keep distilling it from germs, minerals and other impurities. When this process is continued for a few days then the water of pools become crystal and pure. The Swimming pool filter cartridges, however, need cleaning as they often get clogged with impurities that accumulate on their surface. Cleaning is executed by spraying jets of water from a hose. Muriatic acids and Chlorine are also necessary as they release sticky substances and microbes that get trapped on the cartridge surface.

“The new cartridge filters can foil dirt and trap them on their surface as the filament’s fine pores do not allow even 5 micron sized particles to find a passage”, said a worker in Unicel. It is possible to build a reliable and safe pool with the installation of cartridge filters.

Filters and filtering systems are gaining popularity among pool users of today. Many have abandoned their traditional sand and DE filters and have bought the more recent cartridge type filters. They are sold at discounted prices and they flaunt hassle-free installation procedures.
