Cleaning a Cartridge-Type Pool Filter

Having  a swimming pool offers a lot of fun and enjoyment. On the other hand, its maintenance can somehow be expensive.One of the things that a pool owner must remember is to maintain the pool's cleanliness by having a clean pool filter. To those who can afford to buy new ones every time it is full of dirt, it is good. To those who cannot and wants to secure the cleanliness of the pool always, cleaning the pool filter regularly is a better option. Here's how to do it:

• Buy a good quality cartridge-type filter. A good quality filter cartridge has pleats that are not paper. It can either be a fiberglass mat or synthetic filter media. 

• Remove the cartridge. When water in the pool becomes dirty, remove the pool filter cartridge from the pump-filter assembly.

• Clean the cartridge carefully. Use some chemicals that can be bought in any pool store to clean your filter cartridge. Rinse it carefully using a garden hose and spray nozzle to totally remove the debris.

•  Allow the filter cartridge to dry. It is better if it will be placed under the sun because it is an effective way to kill algae.

• Put the cartridge back into the pool filter. Reuse the pool filter using the newly-cleaned cartridge.
