D.E. Filter Powder is the most efficient type of swimming pool filter media on the market. This high-grade DE filter powder is typically added to the above ground and in ground DE filter systems by slowly pouring it down the skimmer. It filters down contaminants as small as 5 microns in size out of your pool. It also makes the pool water crystal clear without spending money on more chlorine and shock use. DE powder delivers an impressive level of filtration and ensures efficiency to make sure that your filter will always perform at its best.

Amici has several varieties for D.E. powder, Radiolite from China, and Celatom Diatomite from the USA. Radiolite comes in 20kg or 44lbs bags while Celatom Diatomite comes in 22.67 kg or 50 lbs bags. For best pool D.E. filtration performance, choose Celatom Diatomite which is designed specifically for swimming pool use.

Application Tips

• Apply approximately 1 pound of DE per 10 sq. ft.
• Measure the required DE amount, mix in a pail of water to create a slurry, then feed it into the filter via addition to the pool skimmer. Always review the filter manufacturer's instructions.
• Record pressure after DE has been applied to the filter. When the pressure increases 8-10 psi above this baseline, then it is time to clean the filter.
• DE filters should be cleaned at least once a year. To clean the filter, turn the pump off, drain the filter, remove the filter, hose off the grids, and then reassemble and apply fresh DE.
