Intex Krystal Clear Sand Filter Pump for Above Ground Pools, 12-inch, 110-120V with GFCI

This filter pump transformed my above-ground pool. Easy to install with clear instructions, and it started clearing up my cloudy pool within hours. The 6-way valve makes backwashing and rinsing effortless. I also appreciate how quiet it runs compared to cartridge filters. After a full week of use, the water clarity was excellent. Maintenance is straightforward and long-term operating costs will be lower thanks to not needing constant cartridge changes.

Excelente!!

I don’t usually write reviews but felt this warranted one. If you have an above ground pool you need this. This is our third summer with our pool and our first summer with this filter. It was so hard to maintain the pool in the past with the A/C filters that you remove and rinse. It would take a week(s) to make a green pool clean and clear. This sand filter works so well and not only does the water flow faster it is also a more powerful stream. The filter doesn’t take up much space and is very easy to use. We hadn’t swam in the pool all week and I forgot to add a new chlorine tab so it was starting to turn green. I put in chlorine, algaecide and clarifier and the filter had it clear in less than two days. Very impressed with the quality and price. It didn’t cost much more than it would have cost to replace the old tiny filter that came with the pool. I have faith it will last for many years!

Purchased this at the beginning of summer. Pump has been running well, with lots of pressure. Easy to use with a good variety of features. I believe the sand filter works much better than a traditional pleated filter, but you need to backwash more frequently. Timer function is a plus. Nice long power cord with a reset button built into the plug.

Filtra mucho mejor que los de cartucho y el agua se mantiene más limpia. El mantenimiento es menor, pero sí necesitas hacer retrolavados seguido. La instalación no es tan sencilla al inicio, pero una vez funcionando cumple bien.
