The swimming pool filter system is one of the main elements of the filtration system. Its functions are to keep the water clean and crystal clear and to keep all the elements of the pool basin and the hydraulic circuit in perfect condition.
It is important to note that the pump that drives the water in the filter must be able to move the same amount of water per hour as the filter. That is why it is important to have a pump according to the filter and vice versa.
At Momentos Piscina we have a wide catalog of types of pool filters: rolled, injected and blown from 350 mm in diameter to 900 mm in diameter. We also have monoblock scrubbers for removable or small pools, a compact and complete solution.

The pool filter system is an essential element to have a clean water and enjoy a good bath. This requires an efficient filtration system that removes all impurities from the water.
Two main elements are involved in the pool water purification system: the pump and the filter. The pump is in charge of sucking the water and impelling it towards the filter where the cleaning of the water is carried out and it is returned to the swimming pool through the nozzles of impulsion.
The swimming pool filter is one of the main elements for the process of purification of the water of the swimming pool. There are different types of filters and pool purifiers, but the most commonly used are sand filters and cartridge filters, as well as complete filtration equipment or monoblocs, which incorporate filter and pump in a set.
The sand filter is the most common and used to retain the impurities of the water in the filtering material used, either flint sand or glass.
The cartridge filter is used for pools of small volume such as removable pools or pools of small dimensions. It is recommended a daily maintenance and a substitution of this one every 2 weeks.
If what you need is a complete pool filtering system, we have filtration equipment that includes pump and filter all in one. Very useful and recommended for removable pools, inflatable pools and small pools.

The water pump for swimming pool is another of the main elements of the filtering system, its function is to take the water flow to the filter for its purification.
The pool pump consists of a motor that rotates a turbine that sucks the water through the skimmer and sump. This water is deposited in the pump's pre-filter and is propelled towards the filter for purification.
To choose the right pump for your pool it is important that the pump moves the same amount of water per hour as the filter. This will guarantee an optimal filtration and therefore a clean and healthy water for bathing.
Sometimes the pool pump is also used for the manual pool cleaner, so you must know the minimum power required for the pool cleaner to work.
We have pumps of different recognized brands and different powers, it is important to choose the one that is able to move the amount of water in the pool and that this is the same as that provided by the filter.
The selector valve is an indispensable complement to the pool filtration system. Also known as 6-way valve because it performs the following functions: filtration, washing, rinsing, recirculation, emptying and closing.
We have a wide range of Astralpool selector valves to choose from depending on the type of filter outlet (side or top) and connection sizes (1½", 2 or 2½"").
The filtering tank is the place where the filter, the pump and the selector valve are placed. Therefore, the containers to store the filtration equipment.
There are two types of compact depending on where or how you want to install, buried or semi-buried and surface. The buried compacts are installed underground with a lid on the surface for easy access and the surface mounted filter houses are mounted above ground.
