The Pool Boys are offering a full set of DE Filter Grids at a 10% savings. That’s right, when you purchase a full set of 7 Full and 1 Partial DE Filter Grids, we’ll take 10% off the price at the register.
DE Filter Grids are universal for almost all models of filters. There are a few exceptions on really old models, but these are few and far between. From Hayward ProGrid to Jandy DEV and Pentair FNS Plus, they all pretty much interchange. What makes the biggest difference is the size of the filter, measured in Square Feet (sq. ft.).
A Complete Set of Grids is 7 Full Grids and 1 Partial Grid
A full set of DE Filter Grids consist of 7 full size grids and 1 partial grid, also known as a half grid. You can replace a single grid, however if 1 grid is starting to show signs of wear, it might be a good idea to go ahead and change the full set of grids. That’s why we decided to run a promotion to help save you a little money while improving your water quality.
