In addition to regular backwashing of your DE or sand pool filter, periodic filter cleaning is essential to the effectiveness and performance of your pool filter.  For most pools, the filter will require a thorough cleaning 1 to 3 times per year depending on how various factors to include pool size, filter size, nearby landscaping, frequency of algae outbreaks and more.  Filter cleaning can be time consuming and messy so we offer the following filter cleaning services:

DE Filter Cleaning Service - starting at $125 Before and After Photos
  • Complete dismantling
  • Thorough cleaning and inspection of the grids  
  • Inspecting and lubricating o-ring before reassembling
  • Recharge DE filter

Notice the before and after photos on the right.  Even after a comlete backwash, the filter is still dirty preventing the filter from cleaning the pool water effeciantly.  Only dismantling and cleaning the grids will get this filter back to normal operation.  After we cleaned the filter grids, you can see the difference.  This service should be performed at least once a year or as needed.
