How a D.E. Filter Works
When diatomaceous earth (D.E.) is introduced into the filter system, it coats
the filter cloth. As water passes over the filter grids, the D.E. particles capture
even the smallest suspended dirt particles. When cleaning is needed, the
water fl ow is simply reversed.

* Required clearance to remove fi lter elements.
** Maximum flow rate.
*** Flow rate is based on 2.0 GPM per sq. ft. of
filter area. Actual system fl ow will depend on plumbing size and
other system components.
