Sand filter is
an essential requirement for swimming pools. It traps all the dirt particles
and returns clean water back to the pool. It consists of a cylindrical chamber
which is filled with special filter sand. Pool water is directed through a sand
filled pressure vessel where all the dirt is accumulated and clean water is
passed through. As soon as the water finds it hard to pass through, it is
signalling that the filter needs cleaning. These filters require cleaning on a
periodic basis so as to maintain the efficiency. Sand filters are easy
to use and are considered as the least maintenance required filters among all.
