Then, you can simply spray the cartridge with a garden hose, making sure that you remove all of the dirt and debris from the folds. Be careful not to bend or disrupt the folds. If you need more pressure or are looking for a more effective way to clean your filter, you can use the filter flosser. It is an attachment that directs jets of water directly into the folds for maximum cleaning power.
