Filter Flosser

I don't write positive reviews often enough, but this device warrants my review! I was very skeptical that this device would make a difference cleaning my pool filters, but it has! I was prepared to send this back as a gimmick but it actually helps! I have used the hose with my thumb to widen spray or create more pressure, I have used a pistol-type hose attachment with many different settings to create fan shape water and high power spray, and I have even used a pressure washer on two lowest pressure nozzles to clean my filters. I don't recommend the pressure washing method as it tore the filter. This gadget is far superior to your thumb in hose method and to my surprise, also works better than pistol-type hose attachments. You don't need to constantly change settings for whatever needs sprayed on the filter, you get 3 or 4 different sprays in one gadget with only one spray pattern! You control how spray pattern hits filter two ways, first is distance. At close range you are spraying several streams across a semi-circle and it cleans about a four-inch space on the filter. Need a more focused spray? Pull the flosser back about 5 inches and all the streams meet in the center causing some kind of water collision that works very well to clean smaller spaces more thoroughly. The other one to two spray patterns are accomplished by simply twisting your wrist or the filter by 90*. This wrist-twist turns the spray pattern vertical so all the sprays are aimed into one pleat of the filter aiming in and cleaning about a 4-5 inch length inside a single pleat. When it loosens debris pull the flosser back about 5-inches and hit it with the water where the streams collide, for a more focused spray! That's it! Very simple, very effective! And finally, being made of metal (aluminum is my guess) it is made to last longer than a plastic piece. You can drop it, I have, and it doesn't break. This makes filter cleaning quicker and easier. I will be keeping mine!

This product works great. It is fantastic. We use to use pressure washer & took my husband & i 2 hrs to clean the filters. When we used This product for the first time it took us 30 minutes to clean filters. Unbelievable & what a difference. It was worth the $$$$$.

It worked pretty great. I still had to go behind with the hose and get in between the pleats better so that's why I gave it 4 stars.

Amazing Product I normally do not write reviews, but I wanted to share that this filter cleaning tool is a game changer. I absolutely dread cleaning the pool cartridge filters and I thought the price of this item was a little high. I have to say that this is a solid tool. My filters were very dirty, don't judge, but I had neglected them months longer than I should have and was not looking forward to cleaning them. This tool made cleaning my large pool filters a breeze! Cut the time on each filter in half even with all of the build up. Like I said in the beginning a game changer. If your on the fence about getting one of these for the price it is well worth it. Saves time and money in water costs.

We recently bought our house with a pool. Not sure the last time the filters were cleaned but they were filthy and slimy. I started the journey of cleaning them with a sprayer nozzle on the garden hose. I knocked off the 1st layer of filth and soaked the filters in filter cleaner overnight. I Figured there had to be a better way so I found this. It arrived the next day and did OK but didn't remove the filth deep inside the pleats. It was using way more water than the spay nozzle too. After 1 filter I gave up on it and went back to the nozzle. The design and construction was good but it just did not get the deep stuff in the filters. I think it's great for the initial clean maybe and possibly on less dirty filters. I am keeping it but may explore the other options out there with comb like nozzles

Lifesaver, timesaver, pool saver! Living in Florida and dealing with constant rain and sun, I have found that I have to clean my filter often due to algae and it was always a chore! Using my regular hose, I feel like it just moved the gunk and debris around but the filter never really got clean. Enter the filter flosser! After reading other reviews I bought this in a whim and I am happy I did!!! It made this chore so much faster and easier! Only downside, is be prepared for some splash back. Maybe it was just the way I was holding it, or maybe it was the powerful spray but I did get splashed quite a bit. But I wasn’t mad since I was doing this in the Florida heat! Oversell I’m happy with this purchase and would recommend this product!

Bought on Feb 6th, Today is July 26th, and the on/off dial no longer moves the internal shutoff to allow water to flow. $30 for 5 months? Not at all happy. ChatGPT says it's just broken. Until now, it did its job quite well. the water gets streamed very efficiently in between the pleats of my Sundance spa filter.

If you're torn between this and the blue and yellow comb, go this route. It is made of higher quality parts, with a wider spraying angle that makes cleaning a filter much quicker. Good product, overall.

This works great to get into the folds of the filter cartridges which save time cleaning them

Produit adapté pour le lavage des cartouches. La fabrication semble robuste

Crome finish pealed off

Cela fonctionne mais ce n'est finalement pas le plus pratique, il faut quand écarter les lames du filtre sinon cela ne nettoie pas

It’s just okay and marginally better than a regular hose nozzle. We have a lot of trees and a lot of seeds, pine needles, and debris gets through through the skimmer and pump basket and lodged in cartridge filter.
