#yesafilter: Waterco’s

MultiCyclone 12 Centrifugal Filter

An Australian innovation, the MultiCyclone is a pre-filtration device, which is designed to capture up to 80% of the incoming dirt load prior to the main filter, which then significantly reduces filter maintenance and saves backwash water – not to mention improves water circulation. Waterco’s award winning MultiCyclone is a brilliant pre-filtration device that works on the basis of centrifugal water filtration and is designed with no moving parts and no filter media to clean or replace.

Why we love it:

  • Eases filter workload:

    MultiCyclone pre-filters up to 80% of the filter’s incoming dirt load easing the workload of the swimming pool filter. As the MultiCyclone intercepts more and more dirt, the flow rate remains unchanged.

  • Minimizes backwash frequency

    The installation of a MultiCyclone as a pre-filter to a sand filter can reduce its backwash frequency to once per year, resulting in a saving of up to 7,000 litres of water per year for an average domestic sized swimming pool.

  • Minimizes cartridge cleaning and replacement

    The installation of a MultiCyclone as a pre-filter to a cartridge filter can reduce filter cartridge cleaning and replacement to once per swimming season and even up to once per year, depending on the size of the cartridge filter.

  • Simple maintenance

    The MultiCyclone is easily cleaned by opening its purge valve. Only 15 litres of water is discharged to cleanse the MultiCyclone.


    *Waterco stocks a range MultiCyclones, all of which come with a two year warranty.
