How do I know my filter needs cleaning?

Rising filter pressure, weaker flow from the returns and water that will not stay clear are the common signs your filter is overdue.

What does a proper filter cleaning include?

Opening the filter, deep cleaning the cartridges, grids or media, checking for damage, then reassembling and confirming the pressure and flow are back to normal.

How often should a pool filter be cleaned?

It depends on the filter type and how much the pool is used. In Florida many pools need it a few times a year, and we tell you the right interval for yours.

Is rinsing the filter enough?

A quick rinse only clears the surface. A deep clean removes the oils and fine debris packed inside, which is what actually restores flow.
