Jandy DEV 48 SqFt Diatomaceous Earth Filter
$1,499.77
The Jandy DEV48 is a diatomaceous earth (DE) filter built for residential pools that demand ultra-fine filtration. It uses a curved-grid internal design to evenly distribute flow throughout the tank, capturing particles down to around 5 microns for exceptionally clear water. The rugged composite tank is highly resistant to corrosion and UV exposure, and the filter supports a variety of valve options to suit your plumbing setup.
