Decalite De Pool Water Filter (made in USA)

What is Diatomaceous Earth?Diatomaceous earth, also known as diatomite and DE, is the naturally occurring fossilized remains of diatoms—single-celled aquatic algae. It is a near-pure sedimentary deposit consisting almost entirely of silica.

Diatoms will grow in almost any environment that combines water and sunlight, allowing them to be found in both fresh and saltwater. Biologists consider them one of the most important groups of basic organisms; all other aquatic life to some degree depends on them.

Swimming Pool Filter MediaDicalite Makes Choosing the Right Filter Media Crystal Clear

Dicalite’s industry-leading Swimming Pool Filter Powder is classified as flux-calcined Diatomaceous Earth. Flux-calcined diatomaceous earth is used primarily for filtration applications because of its higher permeabilities.

It is used to remove impurities at a very high filtration flow rate. So, if algae, amoeba, bacteria or other foreign matter are plaguing your pools, our Swim-Pool product can help keep your pool water sparkling and “drinking pure.”

Diatomaceous earth swimming pool filters using Dicalite Swim Pool filter aid can remove particles up to 10 times smaller (3-5um) than what a typical sand filter will remove (25-40um).

Our Swimming Pool Filter Powder is of the highest quality naturally occurring diatomaceous earth, filtering three to five microns. It removes dirt, silt, algae, and virtually all bacteria, while also helping keep chemical costs to a minimum.

Top Performance: Maximum Clarity, Flow Rate, and Cycle Length

The fast flow rates and sharp filtration of our diatomite filter powder maintain greater clarity with easier operation and longer cycle-times, helping to keep your pool water healthfully clean, pure, and fresh.

DicaPool – Save Money without Risking Performance

Dicalite’s DicaPOOL Perlite Filter Powder is a direct replacement for other diatomaceous earth swimming pool filter powders. As a safe alternative for all Diatomaceous Earth filters, Perlite filter aids can weigh as much as 50% less than the other types of filter media. So 1/2 lb. of Perlite is equal to 1lb. of Diatomaceous Earth, saving pool owners money by using less filter media.Highest Quality: Experience, Modern Plants, Rigid SpecificationsOur Swimming Pool Filter Powder is of the highest quality naturally occurring diatomaceous earth, filtering three to five microns.
