I’m looking for a recommendation to replace my DE filter.
I have a 16k gal inground plaster pool currently with a Pentair FNS 60 PLUS VERTICAL GRID D.E. FILTER, a Pentair Multiport SM20-2 valve and a 1.5 hp motor.
My main issue with not wanting to stay with the Pentair is that the grids are constantly getting tears, from small holes to rips, and have to be replaced on a regular basis.
Any thoughts?
We would recommend the Pentair Quad DE 60 Cartridge Model 188592. The cartridges are much more durable than the grids and they can hold more debris. Plus, you could use your existing valve. Click Here to View More Details on the Pentair Quad DE 60
You should clean your DE filter at least once every month or whenever you’re pounds per square inch is 8 to 10 pounds above the normal starting pressure. Cleaning your DE Filter involves three basic steps: Backwashing, Cleaning the manifold and grid and adding new DE.
