When pools demand higher capacity, faster clarity, and uncompromising hydraulic efficiency, standard filtration systems often become the bottleneck. The AquaStar Pipeline Filter PLF35000 is a high-capacity, high-flow cartridge filtration system engineered for larger residential pools that need professional-level performance without the size, complexity, or water waste of traditional filters.

Built on AquaStar’s advanced 360° pipeline filtration technology, the PLF35000 delivers exceptional turbidity reduction—up to five times faster than conventional cartridge filters—while maintaining a compact, inline footprint. It’s designed for modern pool systems where performance, efficiency, and clean plumbing layouts matter.

High-Capacity Filtration for Larger Residential Pools

The PLF35000 is purpose-built for large residential pools up to approximately 96,000 gallons, making it ideal for expansive pool designs, high-bather-load environments, and systems that prioritize strong circulation.

Despite its capacity, the filter maintains:

• High flow rates with minimal pressure loss

• Consistent debris capture across the entire cartridge

• Stable hydraulic performance with variable-speed pumps

This balance allows pool systems to move water efficiently while maintaining outstanding clarity.

Advanced 360° Pipeline Filtration Technology

Unlike traditional tank-style filters that rely on directional flow and large housings, the AquaStar Pipeline Filter uses 360-degree filtration around the cartridge. Water enters and is filtered evenly from all directions, improving contact time and reducing channeling.

This design results in:

• Faster turbidity and particulate reduction

• More uniform cartridge loading

• Cleaner water in less time

• Performance approaching DE-level clarity—without DE

It’s a smarter approach to filtration for modern pool hydraulics.

Compact Inline Design with Professional Performance

Even with its increased capacity, the PLF35000 maintains a compact inline form factor that installs directly into the return line. This allows for:

• Cleaner equipment pad layouts

• Reduced footprint compared to traditional filters

• Easier integration in new builds or remodels

Pool builders and designers often choose pipeline filtration when space efficiency and visual cleanliness are priorities.

Cartridge Filtration with No Backwashing Required

As a cartridge-based system, the PLF35000 requires no backwashing, conserving water and simplifying ongoing maintenance. Routine service involves removing and cleaning the cartridge as needed—no multiport valves, no backwash lines, and no wasted water.

This makes it especially attractive in areas with water restrictions or for pool owners focused on efficiency and sustainability.

Designed for Modern Pool Systems and Automation

The AquaStar PLF35000 integrates seamlessly with:

• Variable-speed and high-efficiency pumps

• Saltwater chlorination systems

• Standard chlorine sanitation

• Automated pool control systems

Its low-pressure, high-flow design supports optimized pump runtimes and energy efficiency across the entire circulation system.
