Prolonging the Life of Your Pool Filter Cartridge Part 1 of 3

This week I am going to be giving you suggestions on making your pool filter cartridge last longer, thus saving you money!  We all want to save money these days.

Tip 1:
Clean the elements as needed.  When is it needed? Good question.  When the pressure on the filter gauge is registering 8 - 10 pounds over normal operating pressure it is time to clean those cartridges!  Also, if you have had a big swim party and circulation in the pool is not normal the cartridge could be clogged up and need cleaning.

Tip 2:
Do not allow excessive buildup of debris or dirt. Again, if you have buildup of debris or dirt then the water circulation is going to be impaired and You need to clean the elements.

Tip 3:
Use a soft brush to clean the pool filter cartridge...never use a stiff brush to clean the filter elements as this can damage the pleated material or "media".  You may also want to use a Water Wand that attaches to the garden hose to make cleaning much easier.
