When selecting an automatic cleaner, choose a suction powered cleaner over a pressure cleaner, and save on the expense and energy requirements of a booster pump.


Swimming Pool Filters
Pool water filtration is the heart of your water care system. Depending on the size and style of the filter selected, you can achieve energy savings and improved water clarity by reducing the time and energy your pump must exert to cycle the entire body of water in your pool during a 12-hour period.

Save energy and time by selecting a larger filter versus a standard filter size:

* A larger filter provides more filtration area, thus reducing backpressure buildup over time, and strain on your pump.
* A larger filter can extend the periodic maintenance cycle, thus saving the homeowner valuable time.

The three most popular styles of filtration are:

* Sand
Value priced filter choice on most pools Good water clarity overall

* Cartridge:
Great water clarity overall Easier maintenance, no backwashing required.

* Diatomaceous Earth (D.E.):
Sparkling water clarity overall Cleans the entire pool on the first cycle through the filter.
