## Long description

Swim & Fun Filterballs Compact are lightweight polyester filter beads engineered as a modern alternative to traditional sand in pool filter systems. These compact filter media deliver mechanical filtration by capturing fine particles and suspended debris while reducing overall media weight and improving water flow through the filter. Reusable and easy to handle, Filterballs Compact are intended for residential pool filtration where lower-density, efficient replacement media is desired.
Advantages
Filterballs Compact offer fine mechanical filtration with a high dirt-holding capacity relative to their weight, enabling effective removal of particulate matter without the heavy load of sand. Their polyester construction resists degradation in pool water and simplifies cleaning and reuse. The reduced bulk and lower density contribute to easier installation, handling and transport, and may improve circulation and backwash efficiency in many filter housings. Because they are reusable, these filter balls can reduce waste compared with single-use granular media.
Suitable for
 Residential sand or cartridge-type pool filters where reduced media weight is preferred
 Pools requiring improved flow and finer mechanical filtration of suspended particles
 Owners seeking reusable and easy-to-handle replacement media for routine maintenance
Key specifications
 Material: Polyester filter beads designed for mechanical filtration
 Form: Compact lightweight spherical/clustered beads suitable for use as filter media
 Compatibility: Designed to replace granular sand in many pool filter housings and compatible with standard filter flow rates for residential pools
 Performance: Captures fine particles and suspended solids to improve water clarity
 Reusability: Can be cleaned and reused multiple times according to maintenance procedures
How to use
Install Swim & Fun Filterballs Compact by removing the existing sand or media from the filter housing, rinsing the filter tank and laterals, and placing the polyester filter beads evenly around the laterals or into the cartridge compartment according to the filter manufacturer’s instructions. After filling, run the filter on normal filtration mode and monitor pressure gauges and water clarity. Periodically inspect and clean the Filterballs Compact by backwashing (if applicable) or removing and rinsing them with fresh water until clear; allow to dry if long-term storage is required before returning them to service.
Usage recommendations
Follow the filter manufacturer's guidelines for media volume and distribution to ensure proper flow and avoid overfilling. Use routine pressure checks to identify when cleaning is needed, and avoid using harsh solvents or bleach on the polyester beads. For best results, combine mechanical filtration with appropriate chemical water treatment and regular maintenance of pump and filter components.
