I think it's pretty clear that there are some serious weaknesses in specific models of filters within each filter group . . . and that information about these problems is hard for new pool buyers to acquire. It's something I'd like to work on, hopefully with your help.

Sorting out the whole problem with configuring and servicing electronic controls is out of my reach, at least for now. But I think we could do something useful with filters and pumps, that would help people make better decisions, and have better experiences with their pools.
