Pentair Tagelus Sand Filter

The design that revolutionized a timeless technology

Pentair Tagelus Fiberglass Sand Filter - Sand filters are one of the most popular way to filter water. For good reasons. They are simple, effective, and require very little attention. Pool water is routed through a sand-filled pressure vessel. The sand traps particles large and small... so so small they are undetectable by human eye. Ovet time, dirt accumulates in the space 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 reverese the water flow and "knock out" the dirt.

But all sand filter are not created equal. For optimum filtration all the water must flow through the same amount of sand at the proper rate. Tha's why all Pentair sand filters feature a special internal design that keeps the sand bed level, ensures even water flow, and results in the most efficient filtration possible. That's why more than 2 million Pentair fiters have been installed worldwide.

Tagelus II Provides consistent, high performance cleaning of every gallon of water that passes through it. The key is a combination of design feature that eliminates "channeling" - a condition that allows water to race through the filter too quickly for effective cleaning.
