AstralPool Viron QL Cartridge Filter
Premium Cartridge Filtration, Finer Clarity, Less Work
The AstralPool Viron QL Cartridge Filter delivers exceptionally fine filtration with minimal effort. Featuring four high-capacity elements and a sleek, injection-moulded body, it provides cleaner, clearer water while drastically reducing maintenance and water waste. Ideal for Aussie pools of various sizes seeking performance with simplicity.
Save Water, Time & Energy
Unlike sand or glass filters, the Viron QL only needs a full rinse about once a year, saving 8,000–20,000 L of water annually. Its efficient design also reduces pump workload, cutting energy use and running costs.

Designed and moulded in Australia, the Viron QL tank resists UV and corrosion while providing easy basin plumbing with dual barrel-union ports. Backed by a 5-year tank warranty (12 months on components), it’s a smart, long-term investment in pool care.
