Tagelus

Fiberglass Sand Filter

By Pentair Pool Products

Making a time-proven technology better

●

Sand filters have been installed on tens of thousands of pools for decades—a testament to their performance, value and ease of use. But not all sand filters are equal, because not all include design features that continuously flatten and level the sand inside the tank. This is the key to consistent performance and quicker cleaning cycles that keep pump operating costs low. It is also a key advantage when you select a Tagelus® filter.

Features:

●

The Tagelus tank is constructed in one piece from

fiberglass reinforced material to deliver unmatched strength and durability for years of service.

Easy does it. The six-position Hi-Flow™ valve has a

manual air relief valve and a sight glass to make inspection, routine maintenance and operation fast, easy and always safe. Pressure gauge also included.

●

Tagelus filters provide years of service with only

periodic backwashing to remove trapped debris from the sand.

●

A special “diffuser” creates a uniform sand bed that

consistently traps more dirt without impeding the water flow or letting it race through too fast—the result is more effective filtration and longer times between backwashing.
