Stuff Works!,August 1, 2009
By waterman25from Kalamazoo, Michigan
Pros: Excellent Filtering, more time between back-flushing
"I have always had problems with DE clumping in the filter especially around the fingers. So much so that I would have to disassemble and clean the filter 4 or 5 times a season. Here we are mid-season and I have had to do the deep filter cleaning ZERO times! And back-flushing? Once a month. Oh did I mention crystal clear water? I'm sold."

Agree with others,July 29, 2009
By poolboy19518from Douglassville, PA
Pros: Lightweight Cons: Short filtration period
"Can't wait till I use up my Aquaperl so I can go back to standard DE. I usually completely clean my DE filter twice a season, with Aquaperl I have needed to do it twice already and its only half way through the season"

Stick with DE,July 19, 2009
By FLPoolMgrfrom Gainesville, FL
Pros: It is light in weight Cons: Powder is very light weight and goes into the air, shortens filter runs
"I usually use DE, and thought I'd try Aqua Pearl. I was a bit disappointed. It decreased my filter run times, which means I had to use more, which negated any $ saved by using this product. Also, the powder is very light-weight and enters the air easily, so caution must be made to not breath in the powder. I didn't see any advantage of this product over good ole DE for my pool."

best product,August 25, 2007
By sunshine1
Pros: cleans better Cons: none
"I am so glad I switched from D.E. to Aqua Perl.
D.E. was very heavy, lumpy, and extremely hard to backwash out of the filter. With Aqua Perl there is none of that. I recommend this product to anyone."
