Keep your pool clean, the easy way! Part 2



​Having a pool filtration system is essential to keeping your pool clean.  And I’m not talking about the wimpy ones that come with the above ground pools with a paper filter!


I had the paper filter ones for many years, and it is tedious to keep the pool clean (they usually don’t do a great output or cleaning exchange), as well as to clean the paper filters.  To save expenses, I would spray the filters with a hose to get them clean, and reuse them until they just didn’t filter well - a couple weeks use.  Although, I do know someone who would never clean the filters, they would just throw them away - and I wasn’t going to have that big expense!  Then, when COVID hit in 2020, you couldn’t find the paper filters, as everyone was buying a pool.  You couldn’t find pools, either.


We needed a new pool in 2022, I insisted that we get a sand filtration system  They are so very easy to operate!!!  It has a gauge to tell you when you need to backwash your sand.





The only operating expense is the power to run the filter (I run ours 6 hours a day), and the sand to fill up the filter.



It has a built in timer, and you tell it how many hours you want the filter to run, and it will  run, even if you forget, or are gone - as long as it’s plugged in.


If you want to upgrade your pool filter, would you consider using my Amazon affiliate link?  It won’t cost you anything, but will give me a small amount.


This is the filter I have
