Just like the smaller version, installation is easy. You just attach the hoses to the pump and into the inlet and outlet on your pool. You can also connect the outflow from the pump to a pool heater as well. It has plenty of power to do this no problem, you could even connect it to a pool skimmer too. The pump is also double-insulated to keep it safe and stable. Filter: This function is used to filter pool water and should be positioned here 99% of the time. Water is pumped through the sand filter, where it is cleaned and returned to the pool. This is my second unit. The first one lasted quite a few years, sitting out in the sun and weather. And with me using it. LOL. Selector valve became a little leaky and hard to turn recently. But I did not always turn it off before switching gears. (I will with this one.) Plastic is just beginning to look sun-baked on the old one, connectors were loosing their 'smooth'. Needed o-rings, a new pressure gauge, a new safety plug, a few connectors, some new hoses. Just got it all, in a new unit.

We would not advise that the pool is left in direct sunlight. We would suggest setting the pool up in a shaded spot or using a gazebo or canopy to help protect the pool.

In my review, this Bestway Flowclear Sand Filter System is different from the other pool filter pumps in that its filtration system uses quartz sand, or you can use fibre filter balls instead. The advantage of this is that you have to replace the sand every few (three) years and not every few weeks like you do the paper filters in the smaller standard filter pumps. This pump was delivered on time. Once I opened the box and started looking at the instructions. I thought it would have come with everything. The most important thing is the Sand for the Sand filter. Nowhere in the description did it say it didn't come with Sand or whatever the net type of balls they show in the instruction.

As good as the standard filter pumps are for smaller garden pools with their paper filters, nothing beats adding a sand filter to your setup. This Bestway Flowclear Sand Filter System with ChemConnect is undoubtedly one of the best above group swimming pool filters I’ve seen. Now they sell several sizes of this pump, including this 5678 l/h version which is great for pools bwteen 1,100L to large ones at 42,300L, so most people can’t go wrong with this model. The larger 7571 l/h and 9848 l/h models are perfect for very large pools. A rough rule is to cycle all the water in your pool through the filter once a day. This could take four to eight hours but you don’t have to do that all at once. You can break the filtering up into different sessions through the day. You may want to avoid doing this at nighttime if your pump is somewhat loud.

This Bestway Flowclea 1500gal Filter Pump is the filter pump to choose if you have one of the large Bestway or similar type above group pools. I’m talking up to 31,700L of water so pools over 18ft but I’d recommend it for smaller pools too. To clean the pool, we would recommend using diluted washing up liquid as this is a non-abrasive cleaner IMPORTANT: when performing this operation, please be sure that the O-ring is in the correct position and completely clean from the sand. Most manufacturers give the range of pool volume capacity of water that the filter pump can handle. It’s shown in litres (L) of water. Ensure that your pool is within this volume range. You may also find a number that indicates the filter capacity. That’s given in litres per hour (L/hr). This is the volume of water (flow) that the filter can manage through it perhour. It’s less that the pump (L/hr) can put through, which is another number that you may come across. Now a feature I do like is the auto timer lets you set an automatic schedule for the length of time the filter pump comes on from between two hours and 12 hours. This saves you from remembering to switch the pump on and off yourself. Pros

One of the most common questions asked about using a filter pump is how long you should run it. Should you run it all the time, 24/7, just for sunlight hours, or only for the time you’re in the pool? In my research I found a variety of answers ranging from “at least a few hours a day” through to “10 to 12 hours a day in summer”.

Fifth step: open the metal ring in the middle of the tank body and open the upper part of the tank. Sixth step: take out all old sand from the tank and rinse the bottom part with a garden hose to be sure it is clean. Over exposure to sunlight can cause the top ring to expand and become deformed. The fast set pools should not be placed in direct sunlight, unfortunately, this is not covered under the warranty. Fast Set Pool General Maintenance General Maintenance IMPORTANT: cover the hole on the top of the hub to avoid the sand going inside, and add the sand gently to avoid damaging the debris screen at the bottom of the tank. Secondly, choose a filter pump that is large enough for your pool and pool skimmer if you have one which I highly recommend. The difference is night and day when you switch from a filter pump with a flow rate of 1500-2000 L/H that makes the specifications for your size pool to a larger model with a better flow rate says over 3000 L/H and a larger filter. Size and flow rate make a big difference. This durable and corrosion resistant sand filter is compatible with most above ground pools and is a highly efficient and environmentally friendly way to keep the water in your above ground pool clean and healthy.The point of having a filter pump is to keep the water sparkling and clean. And as well as the usual dirt and debris, this includes green algae. Algae grow more in warm temperatures and sunshine, so it makes sense to run it more in the summertime.

For most people with pools between 6ft and 12ft, this Intex Krystal Clear Swimming Pool Filter Pump is a good choice and, as shown above, in the pictures, is powerful enough to use with a pool heater too. Although this is the Intex brand filter pump, I know that most of these pools, including Bestway, use a standard-size fitting, so it should also be compatible with most other pools.
