Description
BioGuard Filter Brite is used as part of your filter cleaning process for both sand and cartridge filters. In cartridge filters, Filter Brite is designed to breakdown stuck on organic contaminants, oils, and dirt that can not be removed from a simply rinsing the cartridges. Over time sand inside a sand filter will clump together allowing water to pass through with limited filtration. Filter Brite will help loosen up the sand inside the filter, prevent channeling, and return the sand to a nice level bed for optimum filtration. Use Filter Brite during the closing or opening of the pool to ensure the filter is ready for the pool season. A properly cleaned filter will always last longer and provides clearer water.
Available size: 250g
