Product Overview
The Bio-Dex BIOCART32 is a professional-strength cleaner formulated specifically for pool and spa cartridge filters. This convenient 32 oz spray bottle allows you to apply a targeted cleaner directly to filter pleats, soak if needed, and then rinse to restore flow efficiency and extend filter life.
Key Features
- Spray-on formula designed to aid in cleaning cartridge filters without fully removing the element.
- Professional strength cleaning agents help remove oil, grease, body soils and scale from filter cartridges.
- Biodegradable formula for safer disposal and environmentally friendly service applications.
- Can be used as a spray or diluted into a soak solution for more thorough cleaning.
- Helps restore filtration performance, improve water clarity and extend cartridge lifespan.
Technical Specifications
- Part Number: BIOCART32
- Volume: 32 fluid ounces (1 quart)
- Form: Liquid cleaner in spray bottle with trigger nozzle
- Application: Cartridge filters used in residential pools and spas
Usage Instructions
- Shut off the pump and relieve system pressure prior to servicing the filter.
- Remove or partially expose the filter cartridge element according to manufacturer’s directions.
- Spray the cleaner generously onto the filter pleats, starting at the top and moving downward at a 45° angle. Focus between the pleats for best penetration.
- Allow the cleaner to dwell for 5–10 minutes to loosen embedded soils.
- Rinse thoroughly using a garden hose with moderate force, again targeting between the pleats until run-off is clear.
- Allow the cartridge to dry slightly and reinstall. Prime the system and check for normal pressure and flow.
Troubleshooting & Tips
-
High pressure or poor flow after cleaning: Ensure all debris and clotting between pleats has been removed; consider a full soak with cleaner if spray alone doesn’t restore flow.
-
Persistent film or oil residues: Use the spray cleaner in a diluted soak overnight before rinsing to fully remove oily deposits.
-
Unit not used regularly: Even if cartridge appears clean, periodic use of BIOCART32 prevents build-up of non-soluble organics and improves long-term performance.
Maintenance Tip
For best results, incorporate a cartridge spray clean using BIOCART32 at least once per pool season, or more frequently in high usage, heavy-oil load or salt-water systems. Along with regular rinsing, the spray cleaner helps maintain optimal filter efficiency, lower pressure rise, and longer cartridge life.
