Brenda, I would recommend the 24" Sand Filter Top Mount. It would offer you better filtration flow and less backwashing over time. This filter does also come with a 1-1/2" port multiport valve.

Hi, You will need a 1 1/2" x 3' Filter Connection Hose and a Combo Hose Adapter (spx1091z7) to connect your pump to the 16" Pool Sand Filter Top Mount  (BC3040).

Hi Tony, The 16" Pool Sand Filter Top Mount would be to small for your pool and pump would recommend the 24" Sand Filter Top Mount, it will provide better water flow and fewer backwashings.

What size sand filter would i need for a 24 foot by 48 inch pool above ground?

HI Chris, The 16" Pool Sand Filter Top Mount (BC3040) will be a good size filter if you have a 3/4 Hp Pump. If you have a larger size pump then you will need a bigger size filter also.

Hi I would like to double check my reasoning. I need to replace a Hayward S160T filter which split and this filter seems a good replacement. I have a 14,000 gallon pool with a 1 hp Hayward SP2607X10 pump. I estimate 60 feet of head which gives me a flow rate of 27 gpm per Hayward's table, which is well within the flow rate of the filter. Thank you

If you have a 3/4 HP pump then this 16" sand filter would be fine for you, if you have a larger HP pump then I would suggest the 18" Hayward S180T Sand Filter.

I purchased a pool pump PL1502 from inyopools. 1.5hp for a above ground pool. Can I use the 16inch sand filter with it?
 Reply

A  Answered on 5/14/2018 by InyoPools Product Specialist Lennox H.

Hi, Sue. A 1.5 HP pump is a bit oversized for a 16" sand filter. I would recommend an 18" or higher.
