Replacing my cartridge filter for 18 ft above ground 10,000 gallon pool. Will this filter be good? Whats the difference between a "top mount"; and no

Works okay for the price,not a whole lot of pressure.Did keep my 18' above ground pool clear all last summer.as long as you keep up on the chemicals.If you get behind and water get cloudy or green it takes longer to filter And clear up.

I have a 16 X 48 above ground pool..... I love this Sand filter.... it keeps my pool so clean....and it will work just as well on an 18 ft pool..... You will be Very Happy with it....

This is good sand filter to use and it easy to maintain. Cleaning this filter by doing back wash is faster with no extra cost. The size of your pool might take some time to clean but other than that just keep up with chlorine and ph testing daily.

It have the filter on a six foot tall tank and it does rather well but is a little under sized for what I'm using it for. If I were you I would consider using an pond pump (magnetic drive) with a foam prefilter. That being said, I have mine on a six foot tall 110 display fish tank and am only somewhat satisfied with it. I will be upgrading to an xpl in the near future for that reason. Also my filter has cracked on the corner after two years and had to be replaced. This will not have enough power running that application

I use the filter for a 25 gallon tank. Seems to work well. The filter completely stops when the cartridges need to be changed. Hope that helps.

For a 25,000 gallon pool, I recommend the FNS plus 60.... The 48 would work, why stretch a smaller filter.

It should work with no problems. We ordered ours back in the spring and used it all summer long with absolutely no problems. This setup has saved countless dollars in filter replacement costs. We are disconnecting from our pool for the winter and storing until next spring to prevent freezing of the internal parts. You will not be disappointed with this one. Best wishes.

The S244T Hayward filter is a great match for your pool . When you replace your pump make sure you move up to 1hp Or preferably a 1.5 HP pump for this application

I have a 12'x30" above ground Intex pool. It works great, HOWEVER, you must order the adapter from the Circulator website if you have this type of pool. I STRONGLY recommend contacting Wes through the Circulator website BEFORE purchasing any adapters as there are a couple of different ones. Explain to him what your filter parts look like (white/beige, white/blue, etc) and he will get you the exact part you need. Otherwise, works great!

I believe this top manifold is the same for all capacities (heights) of this Hayward series of DE filters. I replaced mine ( about 12 years old) with no problem. It accepts the 6+1 filter blades (I hope you are patient!).It should be compatible with all Hayward Vertical Grid filters: DE2400/3600/4800/6000 which vary only by height. Mine is the DE-6000. My manifold is DEX-2400-C and another site (http://www.poolzoom.com/top-manifold-v60-105-dex2400c.html) shows it as a spare for the 2420 filter. It might fit others.

dont know i have only used mine on a intex above ground pool, using clorine in the water. no fish waste for the filter to deal with either.

I've got a 18ftx4ft pool and it worked fine for me. I think these are all pretty standard sizes. I actually don't close off the water flow when I clean my filter though. I unscrew the top, take the filter out and let the water flow out the top until it's clear. The water in the housing will be largely unfiltered water anyway and tends to collect a lot of crud on the dirty side of the filter. When the water flowing out the top is clear, I put the top of the housing back in place and take the filter and clean it. Then I re-open the filter housing and put the filter back in. The water you loose this way isn't enough to really affect the pool level if you are reasonably careful. I've got a 18ftx4ft pool and it worked fine for me.

I just looked up Bestway Pool filters and I see that they are same. You just need to make sure the size of the filter matches the size of the pool that you are using

Hi Ruth. The pool is big, but not big enough for a filter. You may want to call customer service for that question. Good luck. The Maj

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.

Yes it will work just great, I am using it on a 19ft x 9ft x 54in pool with a salt water filter, they are compatible. I checked with the manufacturer.

I am using it on a 11.5K gallon in ground with a 3/4hp pump. no problems whatsoever. the hayward site offers tips on determining size. this one was a bit bigger, i could have gone with a C900, but this filters more water in a shorter timeframe. You want to be sure it will circulate your entire pool in 10 hours. One note, you can go somewhat bigger on a cartridge filter, but dont do it on a sand filter.

Hey Tim my pool is 26x18 33,000 GL. The C1200 is overkill for my pool but that's not a bad thing. I went from an old Hayward S200 sand filter to the C1200. Right off the bat I could tell the motor wasn't straining to push the water through the cartridge verses the sand. I think bigger is better in this aspect. I would recommend this filter to anyone.
