CARTRIDGE POOL FILTER INSTALLATION ECO WISE 4 FOR POOLS UP TO 85,000L

Product Description

The BADU Eco Wise 4 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 4 cartridge filter, old filter removal where suitable, standard installation labour, pipework adjustments and basic testing after installation.

The BADU Eco Wise 4 is designed for an average pool size of up to 85,000 litres, with a supplied flow rate of 16m³/h at 350kPa. It can be used with 1.05kW, 1.1kW and 1.2kW pool pumps, depending on the full system layout, pipework condition, debris load and circulation requirements.

As a cartridge filter, the BADU Eco Wise 4 does not rely on regular backwashing like a sand filter. The cartridge is removed and cleaned manually, helping reduce water loss during routine filter maintenance. This makes it a practical choice for pool owners who want strong filtration with a simpler, water saving maintenance routine.

This filter is best suited to pools and spas with regular maintenance and a manageable debris load. Pools surrounded by large trees, heavy leaf fall or garden debris may require more frequent cartridge cleaning. Final suitability depends on the existing pump, pipework, plumbing layout, filter position, pool size and complete filtration setup.

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 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.
