Diatomatious Earth Hayward Pool Filters – the Science Behind the Products
Wouldn't it be nice if you could just read up on pool filters and get the straight facts on topics such as diatomatious earth Hayward pool filters. Perhaps you may have questions that you would like answered, such as âwhat the heck is diatomatious earth anywayâ?
How Do They Work?
Hayward pool filters come in all three filtration styles, with those being cartridge, sand and of course diatomatious earth. Of course its not hard to picture in your mind how the cartridge and sand filters function but what about the diatomatious earth filters?
Tiny Sea Shells
Diatomatious earth is a fine white powder that looks just like powdered chalk. Its made up of calcium carbonate and it has fascinating biological origins. Each microscopic speck of this fine white powder is actually a tiny shell of an ancient one celled sea creature called a diatom.
Huge Deposits of Ancient Tiny Sea Shells
Eons ago, when the oceans were filled with small diatoms some species of these diatoms had tiny shells on them. As they would die their shells would build up on the sea bed and today these deposits are mined to be used in a number of ways.
Filled With Microscopic Holes
Diatomatious earth has special properties that make it an excellent product to use in pool filters. One of those properties is that each microscopic shell is actually porous in the same way as a chunk of coral is.
Filters Out Particles as Small as 5 Microns
So, as the pool water passes through a Hayward pool filter that functions by using diatomatious earth, particles as small as 5 microns are filtered out. This is why diatomatious earth pool filters are able to produce such sparkling results in the water that they treat.
