CARTRIDGE POOL FILTER INSTALLATION ECO WISE 3 FOR POOLS UP TO 62,000L

Product Description

The BADU Eco Wise 3 Cartridge Filter Installation is a complete supply and installation service for pool owners in Gauteng East who need a cartridge pool filter replacement for a residential pool or spa system. This service includes the BADU Eco Wise 3 cartridge filter, old filter removal where suitable, standard installation labour, pipework adjustments and basic testing after installation.

The BADU Eco Wise 3 is designed for an average pool size of up to 62,000 litres, with a supplied flow rate of 11.3m³/h at 350kPa. Final suitability depends on the existing pump, pipework, plumbing layout, filter position, debris load and full pool system setup.

This cartridge filter is manufactured from high strength ABS material, which offers strong impact resistance and durability for outdoor pool equipment areas. It forms part of the BADU Eco Wise filter range, which is designed with sustainability in mind and is 100% recyclable.

Unlike a sand filter, a cartridge filter does not require regular backwashing. The cartridge is removed and cleaned manually, helping reduce water wastage during routine maintenance. The self drainage feature allows water to drain efficiently from the filter casing during cleaning, helping support cleaner and more hygienic maintenance.

This is a supply and installation package, not a supply only filter listing. The installation is based on using the existing above ground filter position where suitable, with the new filter installed on a stable and suitable surface. Any extra plumbing, pump replacement, electrical work, site preparation or repairs to faulty existing infrastructure must be quoted separately before work is done.
