Cartridge filters
Pentair Clean & Clear, Hayward SwimClear, Sta-Rite, Jandy, and the rest. Single, two, three, and four-element systems. We recommend a full re-pleat at 3 to 5 years and tell you the truth when yours has another season in it.
Clean Filter. Clearer Water. Healthier Pool.
Cartridge, DE, and sand filters cleaned, inspected, and pressure-tested. Serving Temecula through every city in San Diego County. Most jobs done in under an hour.
Full-service pool companies price a filter clean as part of a bigger contract. Recurring routes, weekly chemical service, parts inventory, two-person trucks. That overhead has to land somewhere, and it lands on a $150 to $200 filter clean.
We run one service. No contracts, no add-ons, no while-we-are-here pitches. That is the entire math behind $75.
One service done a thousand times beats five services done a few. We have seen every filter housing made since 2005.
We are not trying to win you on a $400 monthly contract. The visit ends when the filter is back together and the system holds pressure.
One truck, one technician, one job. We do not stock parts inventory or carry a chemical retail markup. That savings goes to you.
Five steps, every visit. Hose-and-rinse competitors stop after step two. We do the entire list whether you ask us to or not.
Every cartridge or grid set goes into a commercial filter degreaser. Sunscreen, lotions, body oils, and biofilm release at the fiber level. A hose alone does not do this.
High-pressure rinse, pleat by pleat, by hand. DE grids get the same attention. Sand laterals get inspected and rinsed before the bed is rebuilt.
We look at every element for tears, broken bands, collapsed cores, and pleat damage. You get photographs of anything that needs your attention.
System back on, lid sealed, air bled. We log the new clean baseline PSI so you have a number to watch over the next 90 days.
DE manifolds, top heads, and bottom hubs inspected for hairline cracks. We tell you what needs replacing and offer to order parts at our cost.
Not sure what you have? Tell us the brand on the housing, or send a photo when you book. We will identify it before we roll out.
Pentair Clean & Clear, Hayward SwimClear, Sta-Rite, Jandy, and the rest. Single, two, three, and four-element systems. We recommend a full re-pleat at 3 to 5 years and tell you the truth when yours has another season in it.
Diatomaceous earth grids pulled by hand, soaked, rinsed, and inspected. Torn grids and cracked manifolds are caught before they cost you DE in the pool. Fresh charge of DE included on completion.
Standard backwash and rinse, plus a chemical sand cleanse on schedule. If the bed has channeled or the laterals are damaged, we will rebed the filter with fresh #20 silica sand at our cost.
We cover south Riverside County and every corner of San Diego County. Tap your city to see local availability and book.

One technician, one truck. We pull, soak, clean, inspect, reinstall, and pressure-test.
Before and after photos, an inspection report, and your new clean PSI baseline. Paid on completion.
If you already have a weekly pool service you love, keep them. Add us for the filter clean and put $75 back in your pocket every quarter.

“Showed up on time, pulled my Pentair cartridges out, soaked them, brought them back so clean they looked new. Two pool companies before this just hosed them off. Worth every dollar.”
“I had a DE filter that nobody wanted to touch because grids are a pain. These guys took it apart on the driveway, cleaned every grid, recharged the DE, and were done in under an hour.”
“Honest, fast, no upsell pitch. They told me my manifold has another season in it and not to bother replacing yet. First pool tech in five years who didn't try to sell me something extra.”
“Booked online Sunday night, got a text Monday morning, cleaned Tuesday. Sand backwash on one pool and a cartridge clean on the other. $150 for both. The last guy charged me $400.”
“Best seventy-five bucks I've spent on the pool this year. Came out for a single cartridge clean and the photos came through to my phone before they had even left the property.”
“Asked about a contract and they said they don't do those. Refreshing. Will be using them again in the spring.”
Pick a time online, or pick up the phone. Same-week availability most of the year, with next-day slots open more often than you would expect.
