Sta-Rite
On the list of pool supplies and equipment manufacturers, Sta-rite Industries is also responsible for innovative technologies that make pool maintenance and sanitation the easy task that it is today. Sta-rite was the first to use rugged, high-grade thermoplastics for materials in their pool products way back in the 1960s. Leap 40 years on and now they are a leading manufacturer of pool and spa products ranging from pumps to filters to maintenance kits.
Sta-rite pool filters are feature-rich, durable, and have a longer service life. Their models include System 2 Modular Media Filters, System 3 Modular D.E., System 3 Sand, and Posi-Flo II among others. Sta-rite Posi-Flo II filters’ main advantage over the competition is that they require less cleaning than other filters. This is because the filter element holds more dirt and debris per square foot. Its thermoplastic tank construction makes the filter lightweight and free from corrosion. Another feature of the Posi-Flo II that is worth mentioning is the easy access to the filter media. A simple twist is all that’s needed to prepare the filter element for cleaning or replacement.
Maintenance of pool filters is easy with Sta-rite. Sta-rite pool filter parts are stocked in stores. Some online stores carry them as well. Maintenance kits are also available for purchase.Sta-rite pool cleaners such as the Pool Shark, Li’l Shark, and Great White can help preserve cleanliness of pool water. The Great White pool cleaner performs scrubbing and vacuuming action, loosening dirt and collecting debris.
In the pumps department, Sta-rite pumps were a technological breakthrough over 30 years ago. Sta-rite was the first to use glass-reinforced composite resin as the main component material for the pumps, quickly resulting in the standardization of the material. Sta-rite pool pump models include Max-E-Glas and Max-E-Glass II, ABG, Dura-Glas, Dyna-Max, and Max-E-Pro. Different models are offered to fill virtually any pool requirement, whether residential or commercial use. There’s an available model for every price range, from the economical to the high-performance bracket. An economy Sta-rite pump boasts of extreme energy efficiency, a large trap that doesn’t clog easily, and a see-through trap for painless ocular inspection.
Sta-rite motors and pumps are durable, but if it becomes the case, experts from Sta-rite can give details on how to rebuild a Sta-rite pump. Sta-rite replacement motors can be purchased from specialized pool stores both on- and offline. Sta-rite pump motor replacement may need to be done by a pool professional.
