The filter that delivers crystal clarity
Filtering with diatomaceous earth (D.E.) gives you water that really sparkles. That’s because D.E. filters remove the tiniest of contaminants…particles as small as 5 microns (an average grain of sand is 1,000 microns!). Even though these particles can’t be seen individually, collectively they greatly affect water clarity.
Here’s why diatomaceous earth filters work so well. Water passes through a series of D.E. coated grids. Under a microscope, D.E.
looks like a collection of tiny sponges. And just like a sponge, water can pass through, but microscopic impurities like dirt, algae and some forms of bacteria can’t.
In addition to providing the clearest water possible, FNS Plus filters were also designed for easy maintenance and long-term reliability. So you can count on them to keep your pool’s water clean and crystal clear for years to come.
The culmination of 40 years of pool filter experience
The time-tested design of the FNS Plus filter offers you maximum performance, convenience and reliability for year after year of sparkling clear pool enjoyment. No wonder more than 2 million Pentair filters have been installed by pool professionals.
