The Filter Fiber Stuff combines high performance, outstanding value, and environmentally friendly features into one great product. When used as a safe alternative to D.E. in D.E. filters, The Filter Fiber Stuff requires less than half the amount of product than needed when using D.E. It can be used to enhance the filtering performance of sand and cartridge filters as well. The Filter Fiber Stuff is non-toxic, making it safe to handle and store. It can also be backwashed safely as it is biodegradable. The Filter Fiber Stuff extends filter runs, reduces filter clogging, and results in sparkling clear water of the highest quality.
- DE Filters - 1 DE scoop of fiber per 12 square feet of filter area
- Cartridge Filters - 3 ounces (by weight) per 25 square feet of filter area
- Sand Filters - add 3 ounces (by weight) at a time, with a maximum addition of 9 ounces (by weight)
For optimal performance The Filter Fiber Stuff should be applied as a slurry. A slurry is created by mixing the required amount of The Filter Fiber Stuff into a clean bucket of water to be added directly into the skimmer. When using The Filter Fiber Stuff it is also recommended to use Jack's Magic's The Natural Clean Stuff to aid in the digestion of oils which will enhance the filter's ability to perform properly and help prevent clogging of the filter elements.
Due to its highly concentrated properties, it is important not to overdose by more than a few ounces of The Filter Fiber Stuff in any pool filter. Unlike ordinary filter media, a little Fiber Fiber Stuff goes a long way.
Pressure D.E. Filters:
Charging: Start with a clean filter. Note the filter operating pressure before The Filter Fiber Stuff is added; this will be your clean filter operating pressure. Next, create a slurry. Slowly add the solution through the skimmer with the pool pump in operation.
Cleaning: The filter should be cleaned when the filter pressure rises 10 pounds above the clean filter operating pressure, or when the flow back into the pool is diminished. It is important to clean the filter as needed and recharge it each time with The Filter Fiber Stuff.
Cartridge Filters:
Charging: Start with a clean filter. Note the filter operating pressure before The Filter Fiber Stuff is added; this will be your clean filter operating pressure. Next, create a slurry. With the pool pump in operation, slowly add the solution into the skimmer. This may cause a 1-3 pound (PSI) rise in the filter pressure. Leave The Filter Fiber Stuff on the cartridge and operate the pool as normal.
Cleaning: The filter should be cleaned when the filter pressure rises 10 pounds above the clean filter operating pressure, or when the flow back into the pool is diminished. It is important to clean the filter as needed and recharge it each time with The Filter Fiber Stuff.
Sand Filters:
Charging: Start with a clean filter. Note the filter operating pressure before The Filter Fiber Stuff is added; this will be your clean filter operating pressure. Next, create a slurry. With the pool pump in operation, slowly add the 3 ounce (by weight) Filter Fiber Stuff slurry into the skimmer, until you see a 2-PSI increase on the pressure gauge, or until a maximum of 9 ounces (by weight) has been added.
Cleaning: Backwash The Filter Fiber Stuff from the filter when the pressure rises 10 pounds above the clean filter operating pressure, or when the flow back into the pool is diminished. The Filter Fiber Stuff must be backwashed from the filter after a maximum 24 hours of operation time. It is important to clean the filter as needed and recharge it when necessary with The Filter Fiber Stuff for optimal clarity.
