We were at a friend’s pool the other day. It was everything you want in a perfect relaxing summer day. Sunny & hot. Beautiful crystal clear pool. Floating around on a tube without a care in the world until my big chocolate lab decided to join me. Calvin! He just swam away with a tennis ball in his mouth. It still was pretty nice. The best part – the pool of course. And the DE filter system that made that pool so clean and pretty. So when I came across this blog post on DE swim pool filters, I had to repost it!

It’s easy to do and you can still continue to use the best filter aid for swim pools – DE.
