Water is pushed down through the sand bed, dirt lodges in the small spaces between the grains, and the cleaned water passes out through the laterals and back to the pool through the multiport valve. An inflow diffuser spreads the incoming water across the top of the bed so it does not cut a channel, and the laterals are hydraulically balanced to keep flow even across the tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuild and plumbing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tank is fiberglass wound and specified as UV and corrosion resistant. The valve uses quick connect barrel unions, so the filter can be isolated for service without cutting pipe. A pressure gauge and a manual drain are part of the filter, and the base is wide enough to stand on the pad without extra support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperating limits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWorking pressure is 36 psi and the maximum working temperature is 122 F, which is 50 C.
