REGAL CHEMICALS 1 qt Filter Cleaner & Degreaser
Product Overview
Breaks down trapped oils, sunscreen, and mineral scale to restore filter flow without damaging media.
When filter pressure stays high even after a thorough backwash, embedded oils and body lotions are usually cementing the media. Regal FILTER CLEANER and DEGREASER comes in a 1 QUART bottle formulated to dissolve grease, scale, and organic buildup across cartridge, D.E., and sand systems. One bottle blends with water into a 5 gallon solution to completely strip residues that ordinary rinsing leaves behind.

Common Questions & Instructions
How do you mix Regal Filter Cleaner & Degreaser for cartridge soaking?
Mix the entire 1 QUART container into 5 gallons of clean water in a plastic bucket to create a 5 gallon soaking bath. Submerge cartridges or D.E. grids completely for 10 to 12 hours, then rinse thoroughly with fresh water before reinstalling.
Can I use this degreaser on a sand pool filter?
Yes. Backwash and drain your sand filter, then add the diluted mixture into the pump lint pot while the pump runs until the sand bed is fully saturated. Let it soak for 10 to 12 hours before performing a complete backwash until the waste water runs clear.
Why should you avoid using a metal container to mix the solution?
Regal Filter Cleaner contains concentrated compounds that can react corrosively with metal surfaces. Always prepare the solution in a clean plastic container, and always pour the chemical into water rather than adding water directly to the chemical.
