Pool filter cleaning
Have you ever wondered why your pool filter should be cleaned?
Well, here in Arizona it's very dry and dusty, and the debris, especially around the dust storm seasons can make a big impact on your filter. It is very important to clean your filter on a regular basis, to ensure effective and efficient running of all of your pool equipment. We recommend cleaning annually for sand filters and every 4-6 months for DE and cartridge filters.
When your pool filter is not running efficiently due to excess debris or damage, it can be costing you more money to run your pool in the long run. In addition, not cleaning your filters regularly can end up in costly fees to replace parts or even an entire pool filter. When cleaning pool filters, it is important to disassemble and resemble the filter correctly, if not, incorrect placement of parts could damage the filter and other parts of your pool equipment.
When Kangaroo Pools cleans a pool filter, we ensure every part of the filter is checked, specifically for any damage to the grids, cartridges or laterals and ensure everything is placed back in the correct spot for effective running.
Cleaning pool filters can be a timely and dangerous task, so save your time and give us a call to schedule your next filter cleaning.
