Pool filter media
Pool filter media
When purchasing a pool for your garden or home, it quickly becomes clear that it is not enough to simply connect a filter system, put it into operation and let it run. The filter system must be appropriately dimensioned and regularly maintained. A filter system always includes filter media. There are various differences as well as advantages and disadvantages. However, experts generally recommend backwashing at least once a week.
Activated filter glass
This is a relatively new filter medium that is known for more effective filtration. Activated filter glass is obtained from industrial recycled glass, such as offcuts from window production or similar. In other words, broken glass that is activated in a special process. The activation process prevents the formation of a biofilm, which is why these filter media are considered to be very effective, durable and reliable. Activated filter glass can remain in the filter tank for several years without any concerns.
Pool filter sand
These classic filter media are certainly the best known and are often used in small filter systems, where they fulfil their tasks very reliably. However, it is possible for tiny cracks to form in the sand grains of the filter sand, for example, which form a favourite food source for bacteria. This results in contamination, which can only be remedied with plenty of chemicals. It is therefore highly advisable to replace the filter sand carefully once a year.
Diatomaceous earth
Diatomaceous earth is a filter medium that is used for so-called precoat filters. It is a fine-grained filter material with a good filtration effect. However, these filter media are said to lack a depth effect. Before disposing of it via the conventional wastewater pipe, it is essential to check with the relevant authority whether this is possible without any concerns.
