Pentair 30" Triton® C High Capacity Fiberglass Side Mount Sand Filter TR100C Almond

Pentair Triton® C High Capacity Side Mount Sand Filter TR100C (Almond)

The Pentair Triton® C TR100C is a heavy-duty, commercial-grade 30-inch side-mount sand filtration system meticulously engineered to deliver exceptional water clarity for large residential pools, heavy-use commercial pools, and demanding spa applications. Featuring a classic almond finish, this high-capacity filter is constructed using Pentair's signature Glaslok™ process, which creates a seamless, one-piece fiberglass-reinforced tank with an advanced UV-resistant coating designed to prevent weathering, cracking, and chemical degradation over decades of service. The side-mount configuration is engineered without an attached valve body to allow maximum integration flexibility with customized multi-port or slide valve plumbing arrays. Internally, the TR100C is outfitted with a specialized multiple-diverter layout and an industrial lateral grid system that establishes a perfectly level sand bed, maximizing uniform water distribution to capture fine debris while maintaining a superior commercial flow rate of up to 98 gallons per minute (GPM). This efficient design drastically reduces backwashing frequency, saving thousands of gallons of water and chemical treatments each season. The unit features an expansive 4.91 square feet of effective filtration area, an extra-large 8-inch top opening for simple sand-bed inspection, a heavy-duty closure with a built-in pressure relief valve, and a full 2-inch bottom drain for rapid winterization and media changes. The dry shipping weight of the Pentair Triton C TR100C filter tank body is approximately 70 pounds (noting that full operational deployment requires an additional 450 pounds of specialized filter sand and 150 pounds of pea gravel), offering facility operators and pool owners an incredibly robust, high-performance filtration core.
