6. Is this filter media compatible with all types of pool filters?

Routine maintenance involves:

• Regular cleaning (rinse with water or use a mild pool cleaner).

Yes, the ProTeam Foam Filter Media is suitable for both indoor and outdoor pools, provided you use it with the correct ProTeam Dome Filter model.

12. Does the foam filter media improve the effectiveness of the pool pump?

By capturing fine debris and particles, it ensures that your primary filter and pump are not overworked, which can help maintain consistent water flow.
