Pool filtration - filtering water in a swimming pool

A properly selected filtration kit guarantees comfort and safety for everyone using a backyard pool. In the ondaFlo online store, you will find various pumps and filter media. This allows you to easily assemble a kit that will ensure efficient water circulation in the pool and remove all impurities. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with the details of our offer.

How does a pool pump work?

A pool filter pump operates in a closed circuit:

• it sucks dirty water from the pool,

• it passes the water through the filter media (for example: sand, paper filter, or special filter balls), where impurities are retained,

• it pumps the water back into the pool basin – clean water returns to the pool.

Constant water movement prevents the growth of algae and helps evenly distribute chemical agents (chlorine and more). In turn, the pool filter "catches" pollutants from the bathing area, such as: leaves, insects, sand, hair, and other organic waste.

How to choose a pool filtration kit?

The choice of a pool filter should be tailored to the type of your garden pool. For private pools, where the load on the filtration system is relatively smaller, a practical, small filtration kit, whose size and efficiency are perfectly matched to smaller amounts of water and lower usage intensity, will work perfectly. Owners of backyard garden pools often choose systems that are easy to install and operate, ensuring water purity without the need for daily supervision.

Exactly such water filtration kits for pools can be found in the ondaFlo online store's offer. We provide our customers with a sand pump (adapted for three filter media) and a cartridge pump with a replaceable paper filter.

Sand filtration – high efficiency and crystal-clear water

A sand pump for a pool is considered one of the most effective and convenient solutions for maintaining clean water, especially for larger garden pools. Its main advantages include: high efficiency, less frequent maintenance compared to cartridge filters, and a long lifespan of the filter media.

The Krystal Clear sand pump from Intex, available at ondaFlo, is equipped with a multi-functional valve that allows for: filtration, backwash, rinse, recirculation, drain, and close system. A flow of up to 3500 l/h ensures an efficient pool water filtration process.

A great advantage of the Krystal Clear pump is its versatility. The pump fits as many as three filter media: sand, glass material, and special, ecological balls.

Paper pool filter – clean water at a low cost

An alternative to the sand filter is a cartridge pump equipped with paper media. A cartridge pump for a pool is an economical and compact solution, ideal for smaller and medium-sized garden pools. Its main advantages are: low purchase price, simple installation, and easy operation, while effectively filtering water from sand, leaves, and other small impurities.

In the ondaFlo store, you will find an Intex cartridge pump with a capacity of up to 3785 l/h. Such a flow allows for efficient water exchange in the pool in a relatively short time. Proper circulation reduces sediment formation, decreases water turbidity, limits algae growth, and improves the action of pool chemicals. This, in turn, translates into lower pool operating costs.

The paper filter easily catches fine impurities. The Intex pool filter pump is very efficient, energy-saving, and easy to install and operate. A simple lid closing system allows quick access to the cartridge without the use of specialized tools.

Pool filtration – pumps and accessories. Take care of your pool water!

We encourage you to familiarize yourself with the details of the ondaFlo offer. Each filter media is available for separate sale, which allows for quick replenishment of home supplies.
