FILTER MATERIAL
Either sand or lter glass can
be used as a lter material.
Filterballs: Besides a high ltration
capacity (down to 1 micron),
Filterballs are water-saving as you do
not need to continuously backwash.
Instead, you can simply wash the
Filterballs in the washing machine
(without soap), or by hand, when the
season is over. Compared to other
lter materials Filterballs have a
minimal water resistance, which gives
a higher water ow. This means that
the lter system can circulate all the
pool water faster, which in turn means
less energy consumption. Another
great advantage is the light weight of
the Filterballs. This is great news for
your back when it comes to emptying
the lter tank! 100g Filterballs are
equivalent to an entire 3.57 kg sand.
Filter sand: Sand is historically
the most common lter material.
And with good reason. The natural
material picks up particles down to 40
micron. On the other hand, sand, and
especially wet sand, is mega heavy.
Therefore, it is recommended that the
lter system is located in its intended
position before the tank is lled with
sand. Sand also requires ongoing
backwashing, a minimum of 2-4 times
per month, in order to clean the sand.
This means that you use more water
when you choose sand as a lter
material. In a pool with 30-40,000
litres of water, between 180 and 240
litres of water is used per backwash.
Filter glass: There is a big dierence
when the choice is between lter
sand and lter glass as lter media.
Compared to lter sand, lter glass
(NatureWorks) saves up to 60% in
power consumption, up to 75% in
water saving beacause the necessity
of back washing is less and cleans
particles down to 10 μm (microns)
compared to lter sands 50 μm
(microns).
The lter sand neeeds to be
changed during pre-season before
the sand lter is used again. This
is not needed with lter glass, the
same lter glass can be used for
many years.
Powerful pump and large
lter tank
The system comes with a powerful
pump that is proportionate in
capacity to the lter tank size and
the pool volume specied in the
specications below. The pump
must have enough power to be
able to circulate all the pool water
5 times a day - through the lter
material. As a general rule, the
cleaning capacity of the pump must
as a minimum be the pool water
volume divided by 5. The pump is
suitable for use in salt water.
Fitting and hose connection
The system can be mounted
directly on all pools with a regular
pump outlet, and is suitable for use
with standard hoses of Ø50 mm.
Filter material and hoses for pools
are not included.
