Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How often should I use Poolife™ Filter Cleaner?

Q: Will this work with my sand filter?
A: Yes! Poolife™ Filter Cleaner is effective for all filter types, including sand, cartridge and DE
Q: How long do I soak my filter?
A: Typically overnight, but always follow the label instructions for your specific filter type and configuration.
Q: What’s the difference between this and Poolife™ Backwash Filter Cleaner?
A: Poolife™ Filter Cleaner is a deep-cleaning, soak-style treatment suitable for all filter types. Backwash Filter Cleaner is designed specifically for sand filters and works during the backwash cycle.
Q: Do I need to neutralize the cleaner after soaking?
A: No neutralizer is needed. Just thoroughly rinse the filter element with fresh water before reinstalling to ensure all cleaner residue is removed.
Q: Will this product help with pressure issues in my filter system?
A: Yes. If your filter pressure remains high after backwashing or cleaning, buildup may be clogging the filter media. This cleaner helps dissolve debris and restore flow.

A: Yes. For pools with heavy swimmer loads, lots of debris or visible water clarity issues, you can use it more frequently to maintain optimal filter performance.
