is this pool to big for a 16ft pool with 5100 gallons? thanks in advance

this pump will work fine for a pool that size. That is about the size of our pool and we love this pump and sand filtration system. You can also use it to vacuum to waste which is a big plus!

I have a 21ft round pool. The pump and filter work great to filter the water, but not good at all when you need to clean the pool. The suction is not strong at all, so it takes a long time to vacuum. I recommend you create a whirlpool and get all the dirt in the middle first.

Yes, it is truly round and does fit a 16 foot pool. There is about 10 to 12 inches larger, so you can trim to fit your pool

Yeah man as long as your pool dies not have more than 15000 gal you should be good.

My pool is 15 X 30 and 6 foot deep. We had a smaller one before but it was suggested we upgrade so it isn't working so hard. Plus it cleans the pool more times. Very pleased with it.

No... your pool is too too small. I use my float for my 20' X 40' pool. (32,000 gallons) Use a small amount of chlorine from a package of dry chlorine for pools you can get at KMart or Walmart [ only a small amount!

I would think for safety reasons it would not be best to under fill. When the pool measurement says 15ft circumference, 48" high, the water is filled 6" lower to accomodate the air ring. Hope that helps.

I have a slightly bigger 4 ft deep pool, and used a Hayward 16 inch for years. Just spent the afternoon putting together a new one.

My pool is a 16' x 32' irregular oval with 10' in the deep end and it works great!

I just went outside and looked at my pool. It still has the cover on it. I dont recommend it. The 16 foot pool might have less poles to anchor the cover to. It's not going to get as tight when you tighten it with the trap

Hi Kathryn, our pool is a 16 X 24 foot oval and holds 10000 gallons (6ft in deep end) and we have 2 panels. Hope this helps.

Im wondering if this worked for you? I have the same pool which is about 10,000 gallons- higher than the 7,000 it states. I read that you just need to look at how much the pump cycles per hour- was this one big enough for you? How's it working?

It's just a bit over 4 feet when we fill it as much as we can. I'm only 5' 1" so it's a great depth for me. I wear an exercise belt and do water aerobics etc...I find it great. The solar blanket for this pool fits perfect too. I strongly advise to get it. My pool today is 90 degrees now.

I think it's supposed to run at least 8 hrs to get the whole pool. I have an in ground 14x28. Try moving the inlet jets a little, to change the flow if the water a bit....that might help

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....

I have same size pool. Based on reasurch before I purchased last time, I decided to stay with the T15.

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.

yes it is. mine was the same size as yours and it worked great. Just make sure you keep up with your pool's cleaning schedule. My pool was almost under a tree, tree is gone and it was plenty of cleaning. The pump circulated everything very well and it was crystal clear water all summer long.
