What We Do

Every filter clean follows the same thorough process, whether you are on a maintenance plan or booking a one-time service.

1

Shut Down & Remove

We shut off the pump, release pressure, and carefully remove the filter assembly.

2

Full Teardown

Every grid, cartridge, or element is removed and individually inspected for wear and damage.

3

Deep Clean

High-pressure rinse to remove oils, debris, and mineral buildup. DE filters get a fresh coat of diatomaceous earth.

4

Reassemble & Test

Everything goes back together, the system is restarted, and we verify proper pressure and flow.

Filter Types We Service

Cartridge Filters

Most common in residential pools. We remove each cartridge, deep rinse to clear debris, and inspect for tears or wear that reduce filtration.

Cartridges typically last 1-3 years before needing replacement.

DE (Diatomaceous Earth) Filters

Best filtration available. We disassemble the grid assembly, clean each grid individually, inspect for tears, and recoat with fresh DE powder.

DE grids typically last 3-7 years. We will flag any that need replacement.
