Sand Filters
The sand filter tank is round or egg shaped. The sand contained in the filter strains the impurities from the water as the water passes through the sand. The sand filter uses a multiport valve to direct the water through the filter or out to backwash. The valves are either top or side mount. Both valves work the same way. In filter position, the water is directed over the top of the sand bed and, as the water flows down through the sand, the sharp edges of the sand catch the particles in the water. The clean water is pushed out of the filter through the bottom lateral assembly. The laterals are in the shape of a wagon wheel, with tiny holes along the top edge, to allow the clean water back to the pool and the sand and dirt to stay in the filter.
