Filtration is quite the most important part of your swimming pool.
Let me know more...A well adapted filtration system can help you save up to 70% or 80% on your swimming pool maintenance cost.
To be efficient, the filtration system must recycle all the pool water every six hours. For example, for a 80m3 pool you will need a 15m3/H filter (the filter's capacity is approximately equal to the volume of the pool divided by six).
Thanks to the pump, the water goes through the skimmers or to the spillway in case of a perimeter overflow pool.
The water then passes through the filter which cleans it, discarding small particles.
Clean water is propelled back in the pool via return inlets.
One of the other goals of the filtration is to avoid stagnation. That is why filtration time must be adjusted according to the temperature.
The filtration system is always made at least of a pump and a filter with its six-way valve (several pumps and filters for high-sized pools like public pools). Many different type of filters are avaiable, like the well-known sand filter, but other filters like diatoms filters provide some extra filtering power. Because of its thinness, diatom powder filtration lowers consumption of the water treatment products without leaving the water clarity aside. When designing the pool it is important to place skimmers, drains and outlets well to ensure a good circulation of water.
The vacuum port is used for pool cleaning : you can plug-in a robot which will clean out the pool automatically when connected to a supercharger (Be aware that flexible pipe installations are not suitable for this kind of devices).
To make your life easier, you can add various types of devices to your pool:
