Should I clean or replace pool filter?
Clean cartridge filter elements every 4-6 weeks. Replace cartridge elements every 2-3 years (fibers wear out, pressure stays elevated even after cleaning). Replace DE grids every 5-7 years. Replace sand media every 5-7 years. Replace housing only if cracked or excessively corroded.
