Deep Filter Cleaning for Cartridge, D.E. and Sand Filters

Lo-Chlor Filter Cleaner & Degreaser is a high-strength filter cleaning solution formulated for the deep cleaning and degreasing of pool and spa filtration systems.

This proprietary blend of strong organic and inorganic compounds is designed to remove grime, oil, dead algae, organic build-up, calcium scale, and unwanted metals from filter media. It is suitable for cartridge filters, diatomaceous earth (D.E.) filter elements, and sand filters.

Used as part of regular maintenance, Filter Cleaner & Degreaser helps keep filtration systems cleaner, supports chemical performance, and assists in prolonging the life of filter media.

• Effective on calcium scale and unwanted metals for deeper filter cleaning.
• Suitable for cartridge, D.E. and sand filters across a wide range of filtration systems.

How It Works

Filter Cleaner & Degreaser works by using a proprietary blend of strong organic and inorganic compounds to break down grime, dead algae, oil, organic deposits, calcium scale, and unwanted metals lodged in filter media.

By removing this build-up from cartridge elements, D.E. filter grids, and sand filters, the product helps restore cleaner filter surfaces and supports more effective filtration performance.

This deep-cleaning action makes it suitable for routine maintenance programs as well as more intensive seasonal cleaning.
