Pool filter media

Pool filter media - the key to crystal-clear water
High-quality filter media are essential for perfect water quality in your pool. Pool filter media play a decisive role in filtration, as they effectively remove dirt particles, algae and other impurities from the water. At Poolshop Direkt, we offer a comprehensive selection of first-class filter media that are optimised for your filter system.
What are pool filter media?
Filter media is the basis of every pool filter system. The water is pumped through the medium, which retains dirt, particles and microorganisms. Depending on the type of pool and filter system, different filter media are available, including
- Quartz sand: The classic filter media, ideal for sand filter systems.
- Filter glass: A sustainable and more efficient alternative to quartz sand.
- Cartridges: Perfect for smaller pools and whirlpools.
- Zeolite: A natural mineral with exceptional filter performance.

- Filter glass: With its smooth surface, filter glass minimises bacterial build-up and offers a longer service life than sand.

Tips for selecting the right filter media
Choosing the right filter media depends on various factors. Consider the following aspects:
1. filter type: quartz sand, filter glass or zeolite are recommended for sand filter systems, while cartridge filters require cartridges.
2. water quality: For particularly high water purity requirements, such as in public swimming pools, zeolite is an excellent choice.
3. sustainability: filter glass is more environmentally friendly and efficient than quartz sand.
4. budget: Depending on the price range, you can choose between different materials to suit your requirements.
Care and maintenance of pool filter media
To ensure the best possible filtration, regular maintenance of the filter media is necessary. Here are some tips:
- Backwash: Carry out a regular backwash on sand or glass filters to remove deposits.
- Replacing the filter medium: Replace quartz sand every two to three years; filter glass has a longer service life and requires less frequent replacement.
- Clean cartridges: Rinse or replace cartridges regularly to maintain efficiency.
- Regenerate zeolite: Zeolite can be refreshed by rinsing with a salt solution.
