The Pentair FNS Plus Fiberglass D.E. Pool Filter provides the highest level of filtration. The FNS Plus is capable of filtering out particulate as small as 5 microns. That's the same size as a human red blood cell.
The FNS plus uses a set or grids coated in pool grade diatomaceous earth. The set of grids consists of 7 full grids 30" in length and 1 partial grid 30" in length. The FNS Plus tank is made with fiberglass-reinforced polypropylene that enhances durability and product life. It uses a hi-flow manual air relief valve that eliminates air buildup in the tank rather than having it force back thru the system.
A 1-1/2" drain is used for quick drainage, and a steel tension control clamp rests securely around the tank, a brass barrel nut securely fastens each half tightly together. To remove the FNS Plus requires a minimum of 86" vertical clearance. Before removing the dome lid, it is suggested to backwash the filter to discharge the contaminated DE powder.Common Questions:
