Does this pump use a filter? If so, what size and a good source?

No it does not use a filter as far as I know. We have never used it with a filter but we are using it for a small indoor fountain.

HI Ruth,the pump does not have a filter. If you need to pump the water more than 12" high I would suggest a little bigger pump.

I'm not sure about the filter however, I operate the pump in a shallow bird bath with maybe 3 inches of water and it works fine.

Thank you for your question! A filter is not required for this system to operate properly.

These filters are 8" long, you must have the little pump by intex which takes that short filter. I don't remember the type but I think it's a B or D filter. Just to be sure research and find your pump and it'll state which is the correct filter.

Yes , this is the filter . I find it works great... does not cleaning as often as another type I used with an old pump. AS Karen said, it is easily removed and replaced. I also rinse the housing while I am cleaning the filter,along with any hose. Purchased an extra filter, so can use one, while I clean the other.

Yes. They do come with a filter and pump. The built-in pump needs to be plugged in. I replace the filter every 6 weeks or so. It's a small blue rectangular sponge-like object (sold in 4 packs for about 9 bucks). Please note. These tanks don't have a heater included, so you might want to get one for wintertime if you live in the North.

No, but the housing does a good job as a prefilter. It collects things >1/4". Everything else passes through the pump. I spray off the housing about once a month.

Does someone have a reasoned answer on what size filter I need for a 1.5hp Pump? I find advices ranging from 75 to 200 sq.ft... 1 1/2 connection and about 20-25 ft pipe to the above ground pool.

i don't know it it has a filter but i am using it in my front yard water feature that has a small waterfall with a catch basin and it works fine, i haven't had to clean it and the water feature does have algae in it, it works great , i would not hesitate to recommend it and the price is excellent.

It has a small filter that comes with it. I replace it every so often. I use it just because it has it. I guess you wouldn't have to.

This prefilter is just a foam cylinder that has a hole through it. It is not specific to any particular brand of pump. I use them on a PondMaster pump. The important dimension is the diameter of the plastic inlet tube. If it is approximately 1-1/4" diameter, these filters should work. They are about 6" long but can be cut to fit if necessary.

It doesn't use filters, Nancy. It's for dispensing chlorine. Up to 3" tablets.

Yes, the filters are used to filter out debris, particles, food, pet hair, etc from getting into the pump. It doesn't not change the "water" other than filtering it.

this pool comes with a sand filter pump,but you do need to order the "Intex Krystal clear Saltwater system" we set ours up last week and it works great, 3 40lbs bags to begin with but buy them at at a Ace hardware or Walmart so bags dont rip open

There is not a filter required on this particular model. It works fine, I've had for several months at work but it's a half gallon so it's goes through the water a bit faster than the ones I have at home but I've been quite happy with this one. Good luck!

My pond is about 800 gallons and is in the shade during the afternoon. The filter does a great job in keeping it crystal clear. Yes the pump comes with the filter.

I an not an expert, but I would say that any size centrifugal pump would work, but only so much flow will pass through the filter . A positive displacement pump may build up too much pressure to be effective
