I bought this pump and filter system to go with my 12x24x54 above ground pool. Is this the right one to have or do I need to return it and order another one?

Filter that came with our 16x32 wasn't cutting it using either chlorine or non-chlorine products. Don't know anything about saltwater systems, but this pump and filter system works great and I'm back to using chlorine, water is picture perfect clear now.

J - I don't have time to calculate the number of gallons in a pool that size... Mine is a 24 ft diamater round pool with 52-inch walls and holds 10 - 12,000 gallons of water. My Hayward 1 1/2 hp powerflow pump does an excellent job of circulating the water and the filter keeps the water clean. I am very content with the setup. My best advice is to buy more than the minimum you will need. My pool will operate on a 1 hp pump, but the extra 1/2 hp really helps. The pump won't have to work as hard, it will be quieter, you will have power when you need it (for vacuuming, etc.), and you will be happier.

This filter and pump combo has done very with my 16x32x48 above ground pool for more than 2 years. I put Zeolite "sand" in it when it was new and have not changed it ... water is clear even if I allow some algae to form on pool walls.

My pool holds over 12,000 gallons of water and this equipment handles it wonderfully. If this does not help you, I would suggest you call your local pool store and ask what size equipment you would need for your pool measurements. That is what I did before I purchased my equipment. I hope this helps.

I have an in ground pool size 18 x 36, 3 feet deep at the shallow end and 8 feet deep at the deep end. I have been using this type of filter since the pool was built in 1986. I have always and only used a 1 HP pump and my pool is sparkling clean. Finally, a DE filter is considered to be the best for filtration, even better than a sand filter.

not sure. We ended up getting a larger one. This is a large pool and is much easier with sand filter and pump system.

When we purchased the pool it came with its stock filter pump. As an extra we purchased the stand alone saltwater system and connected the two in series. I would assume a combo pump/saltwater system is all you'd need to do the job, assuming the pump has some form of filtering system built into it. You should make sure the pump in the combo system is at least as powerful as the standard pump that comes with the 18' x 48" pool, as water flow strength is critically important for the saltwater system to operate (a water flow that's too weak will shut down the saltwater system and post an alarm). An Intex representative should be able to answer that question for you. When we purchased the pool it came with its stock filter pump.

Remove old or defective skimmer from the hose that comes from the filter through the pool side. Attach the new skimmer to the hose that is coming from your filter pump. The skimmer I rec'd is bigger but the hose attachment is the same. Works great. Dan

My pool is similar in size. It's a custom kidney shaped pool that is about 18X36. This filter cleans it wonderfully. My pump runs 9:00 am to 9:00 pm and it works great. Look around and find a pump sizing chart and make sure your pump is matched to the filter. Love this unit. Like another poster says, about 5 years and change the sand if you backwash regularly and maintain the right water chemistry.

We do not recommend this size filter for a pool of your size. Get a larger filter. 1hp pump is fine though.

I'm not sure. This filter belongs to one of the larger pumps for the larger pools. Our previous pool was smaller and so was the pump and the filters were different.

It says A but that is what I got and they didn't fit right, so we trimmed some of the plastic around the whole to make it bigger so it would fit. I would make sure when you buy the filter that your pump is the picture on the filter package.

Hi Keith, I thought the same thing. I do not know why that is included on the instructions. The filter that comes with the pump is all that you need.

I don't think so. Mine is 19 x 48 and it's working so very much better than the pump that came with the pool. The pool company even replaced the one I had twice and all three ended up not working. The company has replaced the pump part of this one and it's working fine. I've got to go back and update my last review to reflect this.

It will work, however if you use you pool allot or it gets dirty easily I would go with a bigger pump.

My pool is 18,000 gallons and this filter is at least one size larger than I needed...however I feel strongly that a filter system should have excess capacity- and the price difference was minimal so I deliberately purchased an oversize unit. I have been extremely happy with it. It keeps the water crystal-clear and requires almost no maintenance. (Just lubricate the o-rings periodically with a high quality lubricant) Keep a spare filter so you can just swap the extra one in while you clean the filter. My previous Hayward system was smaller - and lasted over 14 years. Hope that helps....

This adapter should work well if your original pump was the 800 gallon per minute or 1,000 gallon per minute pump. I had a slightly larger Summer Escapes pool (18' x 5') that came with a 2,000 gallon per minute pump which requires a larger adapter (that does not appear to be produced by anyone at this point) se we ended up leaving the old pump attached but not using it. Once we had it set up, the sand filter worked much better than the original cartridge filter.

Not sure I bought this for my sister's above ground pool and I don't know what kind of filter system they have.

The pump has some adapters incase they dont fit. As i was told when i bought mine that i had to look for one that had two connections plus ground.

At first glance, it appears that this is correct. I would suggest using a search engine to check. I found the following links and it should be fairly easy to match up the part numbers. If that is not the case, then it would be best to go to a pool store. Sure, it might cost extra but it's worth it if you take the inconvenience of having to return the wrong part. http://www.poolzoom.com/hayward-pro-series-sand-filter-s180t-s210t-s220t-s244t-parts.html https://www.hayward-pool.com/pdf/manuals/VariFloXLValve-SP0714T.pdf http://www.c-m-p.com/cmp/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/27515-154-Instructions-03.04.13.pdf
