Polyester and Nylon Mesh for Pool Filters & Skimmers
What Are Pool Filters and Pool Skimmers?
Pool filters and skimmers are essential to keeping commercial and private pools clean and safe for swimmers. They are designed to capture and collect debris and other solid contaminants floating in the pool water, whether through manual or automated processes.
Mesh fabric is one of the main components of pool filters and skimmers. Due to its unique open-hole structure, it provides a screening effect within the devices. Water can flow freely through the holes while larger particulates are blocked.
Polyester vs. Nylon Mesh — Choosing the Best Pool Skimmer/Filter Material
Given the important function of pool skimmers and filters, it is vital to ensure they work properly. Choosing the right material is key to achieving this goal, as the mesh filter material or mesh skimmer material can affect how well the filter or skimmer removes solid contaminants from the water.
The two most commonly used materials in pool filters and skimmers are polyester mesh and nylon mesh. Each offers unique characteristics that make it suitable for particular pool applications. Understanding the differences between the two can help you determine which one is right for your filtration/skimming needs.
