what is the best inground filter available

I have had various types of filters and have found that a DE filter is better than either a sand or cartridge filter system. Of course, the decision on which sytem to use should take into consideration the size of the pool in question.

The DE cleared & maintained our pool faster than any other filter we've had! When we open our pool in late spring it used to take at least 2-3 weeks to clear, the DE had it crystal clear in 2 days!!!!

I am not an expert but I did a lot of research on pool filters when I purchased this one and it is my opinion that Hayward filters are the best in-ground pool filters for the price. The one I bought works great.

Kevin, I can't say with any authority what is "the best" filter out there, but I can tell you that I have been simply thrilled by the performance of my Hayward DE4820 Pro-Grid. I went with the multi-position, SP0710XR50 Vari-Flo valve and that has made cleaning (backwashing) the filter grid super easy. My pool is about 32,000 gallons and this system can (and has) completely fitered and clarified the entire volume in about 8 hours. I did all the plumbing myself and even that was relatively straightforward and easy. I hope that helps.

DE for sure this is a great filter but you nees to get a good valve to go with this.

Hi, I wanted to update this info. In looking at all various pricing of these filters, I must say that the quality and price of these, are the best in what's out there!! I'd say that they're worth it!! I change mine often.. I live in dusty Arizona!

Hi....I've been getting mine from www.lumasun.com for the past 3-4 years. I originally bought the filter system from my physician, but Sharron at Lumasun can help you. Hope this helps!

It depends on the filtration level you are looking for. The smaller the micron number the cleaner the water will be. The tradeoff is if your water has more sediment then the filter will clog up faster. Or if you only need to remove sediment then perhaps the larger micron filter will do. I use a 1 micron filter since I want to remove as much as possible.

There are cheap filters, but bio spheres, carbon, and or anything else you would use, you would need to get yourself. I recommend this filter though. I have it on a 56 gallon and works great. Worth the money compared to more expensive ones I have used.

All filters have an optical coating. It is possible to stack this on or under other filters.

Stay away from Hayward. The pentair fns plus is a very good and reliable filter. The thing about Hayward is that many of their filters are no longer manufactured and parts can be very hard to find.

Who knows? There are better filters out there. The one I got did not come with any paper work that details its campliblities. A monolithic filter or the ones that go in a Berky are good filters. They list exactly what they filter out.

there are multiple filters available, I use the better grade "Hepa" filter. I get very very little dust when using it to suck concrete dust while grinding / cutting concrete. This dust is very fine and a significant challenge for the unit. When the filter starts to get heavily clogged, then I do see some dust and know it's time to clean out the filter

Any tane will work bro! Vector has good stuff. As long as it is filtered at least 5x I wouldn't hesitate to put it in there.

#6 cone filters, white or natural work best. You can use #4 filters but they're a little too small unless you only want to make a cup or 2. You can use any brand as long as they're cone filters.

I use the ceramic filters. At the time they said the red cross and unicef used them. That was good enough for me. I also read a review that said the stem on the black filter broke easy. I don't know if that was true, but I didn't have the money to try it to find out. I prefer tried and true. I LOVE my Berkey with the ceramic filters and they are very easy to clean. One of the best investments I've made for me and my family.

I used to get the smallest ones, but I got so tired of always having to re-order and fiddle with them. now I use a regular filter gauge that attaches in the middle of the hose. its like less than $5 or so, but no more changeing filters and it lasts.

It is really worth it to spend the extra $50 and get the Active AirClean 30 filter which is the best Hepa miele has and the exact same one Miele uses in the higher level models. It fits really tightly and it seals into place with a rubbery thread around the bottom, unlike the one that comes with it. (Although that one is very very good as well.)

Mary,I don't have that particular model but I would use filter anyway. It could only be better.

Basket paper filter. You can use a gold mesh filter but they allow too much sediment to pass into the carafe.
