  • Awesome and powerful pump for a decent price.I recommend you buy it!
Size: 3,000 Gallons Per Hour Style: Sand Filter Pump
This is a great pump for a great price. I am so happy with this pump. It's one of the best purchases I have ever made from Amazon. This thing is an extremely powerful little awesome pump and filter. No more cleaning paper filters for me. Thank you Intex for making a great product. Now only question is how long will it last. It does come with a 2 year manufacturer's warranty so that's wonderful! If you are wondering if it is a worthy buy, YES,JUST BUY IT. It will definitely save you time and money as it is already saving me money because I have not had to add as many chemicals as I did with the poor little pump that came with my pool as well as not needing to clean my filters daily just to keep my water somewhat decent and moving. I bought this pump to go with my 18' x 48" coleman vista steel above ground pool. It works wonders for my pool and my wallet. So far I have noticed, the pump creates a vortex tornado motion which makes all of the leaves and debris circle to the middle of the pool where I just scoop it up.This pump definitely keeps the water moving which is great for many reasons. One that algae doesnt really get a chance to sit if you are treating your water as needed. Two, distributes and keeps chemicals moving and less likely to settle to the bottom. Three will save money on many extra unnecessary chemicals because it will help keep water balanced and no need to keep cleaning and replacing filter cartridges. I ordered this pump ,which was supposed to take 3 weeks to arrive, it arrived in less than a week of my purchase date. Nice, I know, I am happy with that. Set up was very easy. Much of the parts are already put together. Be cautious as the seal rings are in tact and you dont want to lose them. All you need to do is connect the filter debris basket, pump and sand bucket to the base. Connect the hoses to the pump as directed. I did NOT need to purchase any extra parts or fittings because I connected the hoses to the hoses that came with my pool. You'll also need to connect the adapters to your pool. Make sure that you grease all of your rivets with vaseline or petroleum jelly as recommended by intex. You will need to buy 20 grade silica sand ( it does not come with sand) . Approximately 2.5 ,50 lb bags filled my sand pump to the recommended level, which I picked up for $11 usd at my local pool supply store. And the best part is you dont need to change filters frequently because this sand will filter your pool for 2-5 years. I wouldn't recommend that you use any sand except what is called for. I almost purchased the clorox brand pool filter sand but was steered to follow suit with what intex recommended plus many reviews on the clorox pool filter sand changed my mind. When adding sand make sure that you use the piece to cover the pump hole as you DONT WANT to get sand in your pump. It will help to distribute sand evenly around your sand bucket. First setting up is it is recommended that you rinse and backwash your sand filter pump to get best performance out of your sand filter pump. I've added a skimmer with a filter sock to my pool which also increases my pools ability to stay clean and save me from extra work. The pump comes with 6 settings. RECIRCULATE closes off filter basket and sends same unfiltered water back into pool which I use when adding chemicals to circulate and distribute chemicals evenly around the pool without settling to the bottom I use it for 30 mins to about an hour. This setting is also great for long trips away from home. Then FILTRATION which I use after circulating chemicals around pool to start filtering algae, debris etc. This setting cleans your water. WASTE- exactly what is. It sends out dirty water that you dont want back in your pool or filter. RINSE,almost exact same as waste ,rinses your sand.BACKWASH, also pretty much the same as waste. Sends junk and dirty water out of your pool. CLOSED, closes off all water flow to pool and pump. I would recommend this pump . It does its job and soo far I am very pleased. I havent had leaks , as I believe if you follow directions as instructed you will not have any issues. The price is well worth the purchase. Saves money, time, work, chemicals and it works as well as those high priced filter pumps. If this pump lasts only a couple years it still is worth the money it will save you ,and has saved me in only a few weeks. It does what it says it does and that includes all the time I was spending trying to balance and clean my pool l. I am happy , and i hope that this review helps you and gives you the answers you are looking for. ... show more

  • It’s a good product
Size: 1,500 Gallons Per Hour Style: Sand Filter Pump
Sadly, we did not keep it. We returned it, and it was our biggest regret. We are first time pull owners, so we didn’t know if we needed this strong of a pump or not or if it would fit or not. When we originally purchased it, we realized we were missing a piece that clearly we didn’t know we needed it until opening it. It’s a separate piece you have to buy It’s an adapter Which is why we ultimately returned it because we didn’t know you had to purchase that piece separately. From what I can tell the pressure on this is amazing help cycle the water through nicely the water flow on. It was really nice as well from doing my own research and it looked fairly easy to use when we were looking at it again we really regret returning it, but hopefully in the future I can purchase and keep it, and make sure I have the extra I need in order for it to connect to my pool ... show more

  • Great pump for taking care of bad water
Size: 2,100 Gallons Per Hour Style: Sand Filter Pump
Bought this pump as a replacement for the horrible little paper filter pump that came with our 14 X 20 above ground pool. Our water has a great deal of iron in it and it precipitates out to the bottom of the pool shortly after filling. While the paper filter would just clog up once the sediment was stirred up, this sand filter removes the iron in the water extremely well. I back flush it at least once a week and in every case the waste water is extremely contaminated with iron that has been removed from the pool while the pool water remains crystal clear. After two years of use I have had absolutely no problems with this pump and would highly recommend it. ... show more

  • Perfect to upgrade the tiny, crappy cartridge filter most above ground pools come with.
Size: 2,800 Gallon Per Hour Style: Sand Filter Pump
We have a 16x10, 42” deep Coleman pool we bought this summer, and all it took was one weekend out of town after forgetting to refill the chlorine tablets for it to turn green. I spent about a month and a half trying to clear the water without upgrading the filter, but those little cartridge suckers just don’t have enough power to get the dead algae out of the water once you’ve killed it. I ultimately opted to drain the whole pool, scrub it down with algicide, and refill it once I purchased this pump. I do believe I got one that is one size larger than I actually need it for my approximately 2900 gallon pool, but I could not be happier with it. The old cartridge filter needed to run the maximum 12 hours a day to even come close to what this one can do in a two hour cycle, and I opted for a mixture of sand and reusable filter balls mostly because I underestimated how much sand this one needed (75lbs) and couldn’t find more locally. It looked intimidating to set up, frankly, but once I got it all out there it was a breeze physically. The programming isn’t quite as easy to setup in my experience, but once I got it to what I needed it became set-it-and-forget-it. Because of the type of pool I have, I did have to buy some extra pieces to convert the hose situation to be compatible with this filter, and at some point I will buy one more piece of hose to act as the drain hose for backwashing it (I drained it into the ground the first time, but since it’s right up against the foundation I recently had leveled, I won’t be doing that again to avoid any issues). The water has stayed crystal clear with a winter cover over it since late September (still warm enough to swim here until December sometimes, but the cover keeps the mesquite tree crap out of it), and we had already added a skimmer basket that works MUCH better with this pump than it ever did with the cartridge one. There are certainly fancier and more powerful models out there, but if you’re just converting a simple above ground pool purchased at any big box store or Amazon, this pump in whatever size is appropriate for your water volume is a great value. I see why it was the top recommendation when I researched several places before purchasing. Granted this pump cost more than we paid for the pool, but it will make that pool last much longer with less maintenance as a result. ... show more
