The Pentair FreeFlo 18 m³/h filter combines power and purity. Its 15-micron filtration ensures crystal-clear water while eliminating the waste associated with filter backwashing. Enjoy consistent filtration, ultra-easy maintenance, and more responsible water management.

 

Why choose this 18 m³/h model?

  • Peak performance: With a record flow rate of 18 m³/h, it ensures complete and ultra-fast water renewal for your pool.
  • Absolute peace of mind: Its XXL filtration surface of 18.6 m² is the largest in the series, allowing you to space out cleanings as much as possible.
  • Guaranteed crystal-clear water: Captures impurities invisible to the naked eye down to 15 microns, where a sand filter stops well before.
  • Profitable investment: By eliminating backwashing, you save thousands of liters of treated and heated water each season.

 

Advanced filtration for large volumes

The major advantage of the Freeflo 18 m³/h model is its ability to treat large volumes while retaining almost microscopic impurities. While a grain of sand measures approximately 1000 microns, this filter captures particles from 15 microns, ensuring exceptional clarity and drastically reducing your chemical consumption.

Maximum power, minimum footprint

The FFCF 200 model exploits its full power vertically with a height of 1142 mm. This design allows for an immense filtration surface without monopolizing floor space in your plant room.

 

Key advantages of the Freeflo filter

  • Simple maintenance: thanks to the ergonomic handles on the lid (381 mm width), opening is effortless. A simple rinsing of the cartridge with a water jet is sufficient.
  • Ultra-resistant structure: designed using finite element modeling (FEM), its plastic tank resists UV and high pressures.
  • Intuitive installation: delivered ready to install, it easily integrates into cramped plant rooms thanks to its tank diameter of 225 mm.
  • Silence and durability: operates continuously and silently for a peaceful swim.
