The Intex Sand Filter Pump offers many advantages over cartridge filter and Diatomaceous Earth (DE) above ground pool pumps. A sand filter pump is the most efficient and lowest maintenance filter pump option for your above ground swimming pool.
The sand filtration media lasts 5 years on average and this saves you money since you will not need to buy replacement filter cartridges every summer.
Plus, sand filter pumps tend to last 2-3 times longer than traditional filter cartridge pumps for above ground pools.

- This Intex sand filter pump is best suited for above ground pools with a 16’ or larger diameter and a water capacity of 5,000 gallons (18,926 L) or more, however it will work with smaller Intex above ground pools with the addition of hose adapters that will couple the pump's 1.5" diameter hose fittings to a smaller pool's 1.25" diameter valves.

|
- The included hoses have an inside diameter of 1.5”. Pools not manufactured by Intex and non-standard pools may require plumbing adapters which may be purchased at your local hardware or pool store.

- This low maintenance sand filter is very easy to operate and maintain. Simply set the daily timer for automatic hassle-free management. The timer has daily cycle settings of 2, 4, 6, 8 or 12 hours. The size of your pool will determine the sand filter pump's daily cleaning period. Refer to the sand filter pump's operating manual for your pool's daily cleaning cycle requirements.

- The Intex above ground pool sand filter pump includes a surface skimmer basket that automatically collects most of your pool's floating surface debris. This will prolong the life of the pump’s sand media and the sand filter pump itself.
