Brand new to this forum, so please forgive if I am in wrong topic, etc...
I have a Jacuzzi Tri-Clops filter with 450 sq. ft. (3x150) elements. This is the triangular shaped elements. As I am currently fighting stubborn algae, and considering alternatives; I've learned that I can no longer purchase these cartridge elements, but the dealers will gladly sell me an "upgrade kit" for $400+ to the "new" circular elements with manifolds, etc....
Honestly, if I"m going to shell out these kind of bucks, I would really like to know what my true best approach should be.
With two dogs, who I cannot keep out of the water (sometimes even in mid winter, they just can't resist), is a cartridge filter my best bet? I was told that with dogs that a DE or sand filter might not be a good fit by the pool builder.
So.... if anyone knows where I can get the triangular elements, please speak up, or if you wish to express your opinion on what direction I should pursue, again, please do...
Thanks for your help!
