2016/7/21 15:21:44


So your sitting there at your wifes birthday party and her wizass uncle has everyone transfixed. Hes a university professor and seems to know just about everything there is to know about everything. Plus all night he hasn't missed one single opportunity to remind the whole house that his niece, �your wife� is married to a sewage treatment plant worker, �you�.

The Topic of Swimming Pool Filters

Then the subject of swimming pool filters comes up and his minions are perched on the edges of their chairs, hanging on his every word but nothing comes! He doesn't know one damn thing about the subject, so you pounce like a rabid alley cat.

Your Not So Dumb After All

Your words flow like quicksilver as you explain to the crowd in your living room that swimming pool filters come in three basic types that are individually suited for any number of water maintenance situations.

Three Basic Types

They are sand filled swimming pool filters, cartridge swimming pool filter and swimming pool filters that use diatomatious earth to filter the water. You go on to further explain that diatomatios earth is a fine white powder that is comprised of the microscopic shells of ancient sea creatures. Its basically powdered chalk.

Removing the Finest of Particulate Matter

Of the tree types of pool filters, the diatomatious earth filled filters in fact, are capable of doing a more exacting job ofr removing the finest particles from a pools water. However; at the same time they are the most vulnerable to clogs from larger debris such a tree leaves.

Sand and Cartridge Pool Filters

Next up from there are the cartridge filters which also do a good job on smaller particulate matter but have to be cleaned by removing and hosing off the cartridge. Then there are the sand filled filters which are highly resistant to clogging from larger debris but don't do as well a job on removing smaller particles.
