5.0 out of 5 stars THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS SAND FILTER AND OUR PREVIOUS CARTRIDGE FILTER IS LIKE NIGHT AND DAY
Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2015
We have a 16x40 inground fiberglass pool with a deep end. We bought this sand filter to replace a cartridge filter that wasn't even 4 years old yet, but making a LOT of work for me. I was constantly having to lug out the big cartridge, haul it to the grass and hose it down. If I didn't stay on this task religiously (once a week), the pool would first turn cloudy, then go green with almost no warning. I can not believe how crystal clear my pool is and how much EASIER maintenance has become with our new sand filter.

PROS: Backwashing is a very simple task. Additionally, we had our installer add a hose/pipe that goes under ground and then back up and out to spray the backwash to eliminate one step of attaching a hose. Between cutting down the time I spend attending to the filter and also the results I see in the pool, the difference between this sand filter and our cartrdge filter is remarkable. We have a sparkling clean pool with much less work involved in maintaining it.

CONS: It was not fun investing in a brand new filter when our "old" one was less than 4 years old, but it was totally worth it...and has nothing to do with my new product or its performance....just the only bummer I could think of!

WOULD I BUY AGAIN? Without a doubt! I stalled for a few years just because I couldn't see reinvesting in something after such a short time. However, I think this new filter will actually pay for itself after it's first summer or two of use due to the savings we will be getting from a much more efficient filtering system and putting less work on my pump. I could not be more pleased with this purchase. I've included pictures that show my setup.

SEPTEMBER 7th (Labor Day) AMMENDMENT: Now that we have reached the end of our first full summer with this filter, I can confidently say this purchase was an excellent decision as far as our pool is concerned. In the 4 years of owning our pool, it has never been so clean AND required significantly less maintenance and attention than years past. There was only one super hot week where I was overdue for a shock and the pool teased me with a bit of cloudiness that, in years past, led to an angry, green pool (like I said, that was only due to my own laziness since I've been so spoiled with this new filter). I super shocked it that night to find a perfectly clear pool again in the morning. Final thoughts: I would not hesitate for a second to buy this filter all over again.
