What better way to ring in the new year than with new products? Check out the latest in the industry, including a band-less filter cartridge from Pleatco, MSE Audio's OS-400, a pre-fab concrete pool and more.
Pleatco
Pleatco continues to push the boundaries of filtration technology with the release of Pleatco Advanced Ultra, band-less filter cartridges driven by the revolutionary patent-pending technology of Pleatco Pure Pleat. Pure Pleat is a new feature that keeps the pleats of the cartridge rigid and evenly spaced to enhance flow dynamics and optimize performance. The flow is systematically distributed by evenly spaced ridged pleats with no bunching up, using the maximum available filtration fabric. Additionally, Pleatco Advanced Ultra delivers ultra-long cycle times, requiring less maintenance than completive cartridges.
