CARTRIDGE POOL FILTER INSTALLATION FOR POOLS UP TO 90,000L

Product Description

The GL100 Crystal Clear Cartridge Pool Filter Installation is a complete supply and installation service for pool owners in Gauteng East who need a larger cartridge pool filter replacement for a residential swimming pool. This service includes the black GL100 Crystal Clear cartridge pool filter, high capacity pleated cartridge, standard installation labour, old filter removal where suitable, pipework adjustments and basic testing after installation.

The GL100 is suitable for residential pools up to 90,000 litres, depending on pump size, circulation layout, pipework condition, debris load and the full pool system setup. The supplied installation information recommends matching this filter with a 1.1kW pool pump to support correct filtration performance and warranty validity.

This cartridge filter is designed to provide fine filtration using a pleated cartridge element that captures smaller dirt and debris particles. Unlike a sand filter, the GL100 does not require backwashing. The cartridge is removed, rinsed and reused, helping reduce water waste linked to routine filter cleaning.

The GL100 is a practical option for pool owners who want cartridge based filtration with simpler water saving maintenance. It is best suited to well maintained residential pools, covered pools, indoor pools and outdoor pools with a manageable debris load. Pools surrounded by heavy trees, large gardens or constant leaf fall may require more frequent cartridge cleaning.

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