Editor’s Note: After cleaning my 150 sq. ft filter the old fashioned way (garden hose) and getting soaking wet and still not getting all the dirt and dog hair out of the pleats, I knew there had to be a better way. I found and purchased a Blaster 3000 from www.poolsupplyworld.com and it is wonderful. I use the Blaster to pre-rinseand then I soak the cartridge in some Filter Cleaner (not included) overnight. The cartridge goes back in the Blaster 3000 to rinse completely in about 30 minutes. No more dog hair and a really clean filter. The Blaster will more than pay for itself by extending the life of my cartridge filters. I highly recommend it!
