Pentair FNS® Plus 48 Sq. Ft. D.E. Pool Filter 180008 – High-Efficiency In-Ground Pool Filtration (Copy)
Dimensions: 29.5" H × 22" W × 22" D
The Pentair FNS® Plus 48 Sq. Ft. D.E. Pool Filter 180008 delivers exceptional water clarity and reliable filtration performance for residential in-ground swimming pools. Utilizing diatomaceous earth (D.E.) filtration technology, the FNS® Plus captures particles as small as 5 microns, helping maintain crystal-clear water while providing efficient water flow and extended cleaning cycles. Its fiberglass-reinforced polypropylene tank is engineered for superior strength, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting durability in demanding pool environments.
Designed with Pentair's exclusive Service-Ease™ grid pack, the FNS® Plus simplifies routine maintenance by allowing individual grid servicing without completely disassembling the filter. Curved vertical grids maximize filtration area and dirt-holding capacity, helping reduce cleaning frequency while maintaining excellent filtration efficiency. The filter also features a continuous High Flow™ internal air relief system and a manual air relief valve for safe, efficient operation.
Rated for 96 GPM with a 48-square-foot filtration area, the FNS® Plus 180008 is ideal for small to medium-sized residential in-ground pools. The tank is factory pressure-tested and built to withstand years of exposure to pool chemicals and outdoor conditions while delivering dependable performance season after season. Please note that the backwash valve is sold separately.
