What customers say
This system earns high praise primarily for achieving exceptional water clarity, often described as a sparkle superior to sand or cartridge options. A key benefit is the simplified cleaning process; the bumping mechanism makes routine maintenance quick and efficient, greatly appealing to new pool owners. While the accompanying pump is generally reliable for smaller pools, some users note operational concerns. Specifically, the filter assembly shows sensitivity to pressure spikes, and replacing internal components can be tedious. Overall, owners prioritizing superior water quality and appreciating the streamlined cleaning cycle find the system offers excellent value, despite minor maintenance complexities.
