How does Dolphin EON save you up to 20 hours per year on maintenance?

The answer

What to know.

Dolphin EON™ reduces the time spent cleaning filters thanks to its patented backwash filtration technology (DebrisLock™).

Instead of cleaning the filter frequently, maintenance can be reduced to about 5 minutes once per week, helping save up to 20 hours of maintenance time per year.

DebrisLock™ technology works by:

  • Compressing and trapping fine particles for more efficient filtration
  • Providing 1-liter backwash capacity to flush debris out easily
  • Featuring a bottom double-opening design for quick and convenient cleaning

The DebrisLock™ backwash filter comes with EON 120d and is available as an add-on for EON 100.
