 Sta Rite Swimming Pool Filters
High efficiency filtration systems for sparkling clear water by removing impurities such as dirt, leaves, grass, hair, body oils, sunscreen, and even many bacteria from the water, our high efficiency filters keep your pool water clean, clear and inviting. Choose from three different filter technologies - cartridge, D.E. or sand

Sta Rite DE Filters
Diatomaceous earth, or D.E. for short, is a natural substance that traps dirt and debris as small as five microns (1/10 the width of a human hair). That means body oils, suntan lotions, pollens, dust and even some bacteria are caught in a D.E. filter, leaving behind sparkling clear, healthier water. We've maximized the filtration area, which means longer periods between cleanings. And we've designed our D.E. filters to require the least amount of pumping power to achieve a needed flow rate, lowering your utility costs.

Sta Rite System 3 Module DE Filter
System:3 Modular D.E. Filters - SMD Series deliver high quality D.E. filtration in a simple, one-piece module design that's easier to clean than grid designs. The unique balanced-flow tank design maximizes the use of the module's surface area to trap more dirt and reduce the frequency of cleaning.

Sta Rite Cartridge Filters
Our cartridge filters' proven design uses special filter elements to strip particles from pool water with great effectiveness. Maintenance - Open the top. Remove the cartridge. Hose it off. What could be simpler?
Eco Select Choices
Water flows very efficiently through Clean and Clear Plus and System:3 Mod Media filters allowing the use of smaller pumps or lower pump speeds to minimize energy use. And when consumers rinse cartridges rather than backwash, they can significantly reduce water use, too. |

Sta Rite Posi Flo II Filter
Posi-Flo II Filters remove particles so small you can't even see them. And, that includes gel-like particles from suntan and body oils, as well as sand, dirt and leaves. What's more, the filter element in Posi-Flo II Filters holds more dirt than others of the same size. The secret is a balanced-flow hydraulic design that directs water equally over the entire surface area of the element, for greater dirt holding capacity before needing |

Sta Rite System 2 PLM
Sta-Rite's modular media filtration is the perfect match for the small inground and aboveground pool markets. Advances in media technology and balanced flow design provide dirt-loading capabilities up to 15 times greater than sand filters of equivalent size. Virtually maintenance-free operation for today's pool owner. The small diameter footprint makes the System:2 filter a perfect fit for new and retrofit installations. |

Sta Rite System 3 Cartridge Filters
Advances in media technologies enables Sta-Rites Modular Media Filters to hold greater amounts of dirt and debris. |

Sta Rite Sand Filters
Sand filters are one of the most popular ways to filter water. For good reason. They are simple, effective, and require very little attention. Pool water is routed through a sand-filled pressure vessel. Over time, dirt accumulates in the spaces between the sand particles causing the pressure in the vessel to rise as water finds it harder to pass through. This signals you to backwash the filter. Simply reverse the water flow and knock out the dirt.

Sta Rite System 3 Sand Filter
That'll give you a clear idea of what it's like to have System:3 Sand Filters at work in your swimming pool. This filter is designed to remove more dirt impurities, which will make your water look fresher and more inviting. We have made maintenance easier, too. Cleaning is as simple as applying a little wrist action to the control valve and walking away. And, its dirt handling capacity pays off in less maintenance. |

Which Filter System is Right for Me?
There are three popular methods of filtration - Sand, Cartridge, and Diatomaceous Earth (D.E).
Sand Filters
In this method, impurities are extracted from the water utilizing sand to collect and attract the debris. Sand filters must be backwashed (running it in reverse) to unload the water waste. This is a manual process that must be performed every few weeks. Sand filters trap debris as small as 20 to 40 microns.
Cartridge Filters
Cartridge filters have a greater surface area than sand allowing for fewer clogs and easier maintenance. Cartridge filters are designed to run at lower pressure than sand which puts less backpressure on the pump, providing more flow and turnover. Cartridge filters should be cleaned once or twice a season by simply hosing them off. Cartridge element filters trap debris as small as 10 to 15 microns.
DE Filters
Diatomaceous earth is mined and is the fossilized exoskeletons of tiny diatoms. They are used to coat "grids" in the filter housing and act as tiny sieves allowing for the removal of debris as small as 5 microns. Once the pressure rises, the filter is backwashed just like a sand filter and then "recharged" with more DE powder. DE filters trap debris as small as 2 - 5 microns. |
