New Pool Filter?
 

I'm looking to Replace my Pool filter. Not sure what we have now, or how
big it is. I do know its a DE based filter. Though the pool is an in-ground
Fiberglass insert. its 15,000-20,000 gallons.

Any Suggestions on a Filter and or type? Seems like I've seen quite a few
of the sphere kind.

Thanks,
Scott-

Cartridge if you want cheapest up-front, maintenance chores for moderate
performance.

Sand if you want ease of use, moderate performance and a little more cost.

DE if you want the most expense and labor, but sparkling performance.

I was hoping that the DE were Old School. (-; Its a pain to take out all
those fins and spray them off...

Thanks!

Quite so. Out of fashion these days, but works better than the current
stuff. To be truly retro, you need a stainless steel canister DE.

Hey! That's what I have!!! With the Huge O Ring that you could almost use
as a floating Device. Something like 3' tall and 1.5' around, some pressure
thing on top, something like 8 fins in it...

It looks old and decrepit. The Stainless is less the perfect and the fins
are starting to break on the edges.

Thanks,
Scott-
