We collect the filter for the pool with our own hands

Owners of their own swimming pools for sure think about how to collect filters for the pool with their own hands and save considerable money for the purchase of the finished product.

Any pond, including artificial water, has the property of constantly becoming polluted for a variety of reasons. Of course, swimming in muddy and muddy water is not only unpleasant, but also unsafe.

Dirty water in the pool can cause serious infectious diseases.

The most effective way to deal with this problem is to install a special filter that can always keep the pool water in good condition.

Many people purchase this device in specialized stores, however, there is not always enough money to buy the filter, especially if you have certain tools and materials, you can do it yourself.

Properly assembled homemade filter will work just as well as the factory device, in addition, it will be possible to supplement it with various useful functions that will make the process of water purification even better.

Before you start building a self-made filter for the pool, first you need to understand the classification of these devices and understand the principle of their operation.

The main causes of water pollution in the

pool Any open water body, including the pool,for different reasons. The main and main problem of the basins is the so-called surface contamination.

Their main cause is the ingress of dust, all kinds of pollen from growing plants, as well as leaves, grass, bird droppings and so on.

All these types of pollution are of a natural nature, which means that they enter the pool regularly.

Of course, most of this natural dirt can be removed with the help of an ordinary net, that is mechanically, however this is not always possible.

It is also possible to make a special waste collection, which, due to its specific design, will pick up garbage from the water, but not in full.

No matter what trick the basin master does, the certain part of the garbage will remain in the water and eventually dissolve in it, where it mixes with various microorganisms, as well as algae, which will only exacerbate the situation.

Also on the mud in the pool affects the light from the sun and heat, which cause the water starts to bloom and make an unpleasant smell.

Dirt and irregular care of the pool can cause the water to eventually become depleted and lose its useful properties, which in turn leads to the death of algae, which subsequently form the so-called bottom sediment.

In the end result, if we do not take drastic and radical measures, the water in the basin can be filled with insoluble debris and become a source of not only an unpleasant odor, but also many diseases.

The pool can be cleaned in a variety of ways, however the most effective, which makes it possible to keep water in a regular state regularly, is the installation of a special filter.

Only the filter can clean not the surface or the bottom of the pool, but the very water column, where the main dirt accumulates.

Types and types of filters

In order to clean the pool of various types of pollution, you must use one of the methods, depending on the type of dirt.

So, those contaminants that are directly on the water surface are very easily removed with the help of an ordinary net.

Remove dirt and debris from the bottom of the pond using a water vacuum cleaner. But you can remove all other contaminants only with the help of various filters.

Currently, three different types of filters are available for cleaning the pool in the basin, namely: sand, earthenware and cartridge filters.

Each of them has its advantages and disadvantages, as well as a different device.

Very often, for the efficient operation of the filter, a pump is required that will pump water and thereby increase the efficiency of this device.

Among the filters that are used to clean the pool, the most effective is considered earthen.

It consists of several different cartridges, inside of which there are special impurities.

This device is able to make the pool water almost perfectly clean, but its cost is not available to all.

Very often in private pools water is cleaned with cartridge filters.

This filter resembles a cylindrical pump, which consists of several different cylindrical containers.

These containers are filled with various compounds that are able to effectively detain debris particles of various sizes, including the smallest ones.

The device of this type of filter for swimming pools is quite simple, and besides it is very easy to maintain.

If necessary, cartridges are quickly removed for cleaning, and they can be replaced by purchasing new ones in specialized stores.

The cost of such a device is much lower than ground, and therefore it is very often used in private small pools.

Despite all this, the sand filter is still the most accessible, which can also be very easily assembled by hand.

On how to make a sand filter for the pool with your own hands, you can see in the video, which is located below.

Sand filter device

Currently this filter for water purification in the pool is the most affordable and popular.

This sand filter has a fairly simple device and an understandable operating principle, which makes it possible to assemble this unit with all the necessary material and tools on its own.

In the photo below, you can see a floating sand filter, which is suitable for use in almost any pool.

He represents himself a tank with large dimensions, inside of which is fine sand. In order to use this type of filter, it is necessary to have a pump nearby.

It provides water pumping through a filter that passes through the sand, becomes cleaner.

It is the sand that selects various particles of dirt and debris, thereby making the water clear and transparent.

In the sand filter, in addition to sand, it is possible to use other various earth impurities, which increases the efficiency of its operation.

The cleaning quality of this filter depends mainly on the type of sand used, as well as the discharge force provided by the nearby pump.

Install this filter and pump in the pool is simple enough, in addition, it does not require any special conditions for use.

Of course, it's easiest to buy this universal device in a specialized store, but not everyone has extra money for the filter.

In order to assemble a sand-type filter by yourself, it is necessary to purchase a pump of a certain power, to study its operating principle well and to perform all the work in accordance with the generally accepted technology.

For a small private pool it is the sand type filter that is the best solution by means of which it will be possible to maintain water in a clean state for a long time.

The order of assembly of floating and sand filters

In order to independently collect a floating device for water purification in a body of water, it is necessary first of all to acquire all the necessary material and prepare a tool.

Required replacement cartridges of a certain diameter, as well as pipes made of polypropylene.

In addition, it will take a small segment of the threaded stud and angular turn.

All these elements must be assembled into a single structure, and a special pin must be installed in the turn and plug. In order to fix it from the outside, it is necessary to use a nut.

The pump is connected to the back of the structure. For these purposes, you can use the device from the aquarium, while you should pay attention to the volume of the reservoir.

In order to keep the structure afloat, it will take a piece of polystyrene foam.

The principle of this device is that it will suck in water and run it through the cleaning cartridge, and then return it back to the pond.

In order to assemble a sand filter, a medium-sized plastic container will be required, which will need to be firmly installed near the bowl of the reservoir.

Next it is necessary to fill it with clean and fine sand, for these purposes it is better to use quartz.

After this, as close as possible, close the container with a lid and bring the pump to it with a special hose.

For these purposes, you should use a pump with an average power that can pump the entire volume of the plastic barrel. The second outlet of the pump will need to be connected to the sewer drain.

It is through it that all the dirt from the filter will go. Next, you need to turn on the pump and set the washing mode for five minutes, then sand should be pumped into the tank.

After this, the homemade water purification device will be ready for operation. For more information on how to collect a filter for your pool, see the video below.

Assembling an independently effective device for water purification in an artificial reservoir, with the right approach to the case everyone can.

For this it is necessary to have only a desire and all the material and tools necessary for work.

It should be noted that the device, assembled with their own hands, is often more productive than that sold in specialized stores.

In addition, the filter, collected independently, will save a certain amount of money.
