Product Overview
This 110-120V sand filter pump moves water through a 16-inch sand filter at a system flow rate of 2,450 GPH, designed for above-ground pools. The six-function control lets pool owners filter, backwash, rinse, recirculate, drain, or close the system. A built-in 24-hour timer automates the cleaning cycle, and the strainer basket pulls out for quick debris removal between filter cleanings. Hydro Aeration Technology improves circulation and water clarity while increasing negative ions at the water surface.
- GFCI safety shutoff protects against electrical faults during operation
- Strainer basket design makes cleaning simple and extends the life of the sand inside the filter
- Six-function valve handles all the standard maintenance tasks, from daily filtering to seasonal draining
- Programmable 24-hour timer runs the pump on a set schedule without manual intervention

Care Notes
- cleaning: Clean the strainer basket regularly to maintain optimal flow rate and protect the filter sand. Backwash the sand filter when pressure gauge indicates buildup.
- storage: Drain all water from the pump and filter before storing for winter. Store in a dry, protected location to prevent freeze damage.
- material warnings: Ensure GFCI outlet is functioning properly before each use. Do not operate the pump dry without water flow.
- replacement parts: Replace filter sand every 3 to 5 years depending on pool usage and water quality. Check and replace strainer basket if cracked or damaged.
Use Cases
- Maintaining water clarity in above-ground pools up to 15,000 gallons
- Replacing an older or broken pool filtration system
- Automating pool cleaning with the 24-hour timer for hands-free operation
- Backwashing and rinsing pool filters without manual intervention
- Draining pool water for winterization or maintenance
- Improving water circulation in pools with poor filtration performance
Why It Works
- primary benefit: The six-function valve system provides complete control over all pool maintenance tasks from a single unit, eliminating the need for multiple tools or manual processes.
- secondary benefit: Hydro Aeration Technology actively increases negative ions and improves water clarity beyond standard sand filtration alone.
