Maintain safe swimming
Servicing, maintenance and inspection of the swimming pool filters is essential for both sanitation and enjoyment purposes.
Why do commercial swimming pools need to change the water filtration media?
Commercial swimming pools need to change their water filtration media for several reasons:
- Maintaining Filtration Performance: Over time, the filter media can become clogged with debris, oils, and other contaminants. This reduces the efficiency of the filtration system, leading to poor water quality and circulation.
- Preventing Cloudy Water: When the filter media is clogged, it can't effectively remove particles from the water, which can result in cloudy or murky water.
- Ensuring Safety: Proper filtration is crucial for removing harmful microorganisms and maintaining safe swimming conditions. Regularly changing the filter media helps ensure that the filtration system can effectively remove these contaminants.
- Extending Equipment Life: Regular maintenance, including changing the filter media, can help extend the life of the filtration equipment by preventing excessive wear and tear.
Clean, sanitised filtration
Keeping the filtration media in good condition is essential for maintaining a clean, safe, and enjoyable swimming environment.
What kind of filtration media is available?
There are several types of filtration media available for swimming pools, each with its own advantages and applications:
- Sand: One of the most common and affordable options. Sand filters work by trapping particles in the spaces between the sand grains as water passes through. They are effective at removing large particles and debris.
- Diatomaceous Earth (DE): Made from the fossilized remains of diatoms, a type of algae. DE filters are known for their exceptional filtration capabilities, able to trap particles as small as 2-5 microns, resulting in crystal clear water.
- Cartridge: These filters consist of a pleated fabric material that traps debris and particles as water passes through. Cartridge filters are known for their ease of use and low maintenance requirements.
- Zeolite: A natural mineral with a unique molecular structure that allows it to effectively trap particles and remove impurities from the water. Zeolite filters are known for their excellent filtration efficiency and ability to remove ammonia and other pollutants.
- Glass: Made from recycled glass, this media is an eco-friendly option that offers superior filtration performance. Glass media can filter particles down to a very small size and has a longer lifespan compared to traditional sand.
Each type of filtration media has its own pros and cons, so the best choice depends on your specific needs and preferences.
