If you are the proud owner of an in ground swimming pool, having a quality filter is key for an optimal swimming environment.  In fact, a filter is probably the most important piece of equipment that you will purchase for your in ground pool.  You should also look for a high quality brand which is durable and also efficient.

The purpose of a swimming pool filter is to remove dirt and debris from your pool so that you can maintain a clean swimming pool all year long.  Your filter along with a pool pump will work hand in hand, with the pool pump also referred to as the “filter system.”

There are 3 types of pool filters which will work for your above ground pool: sand filters, cartridge filters and DE filters.  You can select which filter is best for your pool based on your preference and also your budget.

Regardless of which filter you do choose, always select one that is a size larger than what is required of your pool’s capacity. With a larger filter, you will need to clean it less frequently which will allow more time to enjoy your swimming pool.
