This video was so helpful! My dad used to always take care of our pool and he passed away and left me in charge! come to find out when I opened the pool this year the stand pipe for the laterals was broken, watched this video a couple times, got my confidence up and did the whole repair myself! Thanks for sharing:)

[@VansWorld]

I’m glad it helped. Sorry about your dad passing away. Have a good one 😁👍

[@andycrew1489]

I have the same problem and this video helped me too

[@davidflowers2035]

my local pool store gave me an estimate of 'around $600' to change out the sand. That didn't include the price of the sand or a replacement O-ring. Your video was simple to follow so I'll do it myself this weekend. Thank you sir for a job well done!

[@SayMyNaamee]

Its soo easy. Just did mine.

[@VansWorld]

Awesome. Thank you for the feedback.

[@glockman9c]

@David Flowers. I would not give that pool store another dime for anything. That is ridiculous. My store quoted my $1000 to install a whole new one unit with sand.

[@sparkydiaz397]

How many sand bag you used

[@lucajack007]

We charge $1080 CAD 😂

[@thearbiter9448]

5 years ago and still very helpful. Used your vid today for my filter. Thanks brotha!!!

[@MedaGodzilla2010]

Doing mine this weekend. The laterals was the only thing I was worried about but after watching this, will be a piece of cake. Thanks

[@jimmackell211]

Very interesting and informative. Been having trouble with the filter and this explains why. I've been working with original sand from many, many years ago. Time for a change!

[@tedallan9336]

Can't even describe how much confidence this video gives me. Thanks for a great DIY video.

[@kevindawes2459]

This is one of the best how to videos I have seen! Sincerely sir, thank you.

[@raydreamer7566]

Thank you for ALL of your advice. Watching your video made it easy for us to do this for the first time... Your Video made it all the way to the Philippines ....

[@Johnnyyonnadam]

Thank you very much for this so informative video to the point that made me go and buy the filtering assembly and open the sand filter and do the job so professionally not like before !! Thanks a lot again

[@thomasbarb9332]

Thank you your video was very helpful. Ended up saving me close to $400. Much better in my pocket then the pool store service charge.

[@onerisbarett4020]

Man buddy, you are awesome! Thank you for posting this video up. Really helped me a whole lot with the same filter you have, just not with the variflo-multiport valve on top. Rather mine is side-mounted.

[@glennhunter1258]

Best, most direct and clear of any video on any process I have viewed on any project. Thanks...

[@VansWorld]

Thank You, It was a fun video to make with my daughter

[@BostonJim54]

Thanks for this very informative video. My pool guy said he'll charge me $350 so, thanks to you, looks like I'll save about $250! The use of a shop vac to remove enough sand before dumping out the rest is a great tip for me because I thought I was going to have to hire a young, STRONG handyman to tip the cannister over to remove the 300 pounds of sand. (I'm 67, BTW, so my heavy-hefting days are far behind in the rearview mirror!)

[@caseyleger8995]

Worked great for me, especially the water in before the sand. Thanks.

[@TheNightOwl258]

Wow I’ve never seen this done before. Thank you for the tips.

[@VansWorld]

I appreciate you stopping by and commenting.. Share this video with someone that owns a pool.. Have a great weekend

[@candicegoodman697]

Thank you so much for this video! I was quoted quite a large amount to change my laterals and labor. Cost me less then half the amount to do it myself and your video helped me do it! Minus the almost cutting off a finger 😂 thanks for the video!!!

[@davidfstanford]

I am about to have to move all of my pool lines and pump to a shed away from my patio. I was worried about moving the filter but this gave me the information I need to complete the job. Thanks for the video.

[@brianwhite1650]

Great job making this simple and quick

[@jaxacdc9554]

A lot of hard work. Good job. My father had one of these filters but he changed out to a salt water system.

[@VansWorld]

My neighbor has a salt water system. 👍😀 thanks for watching and for commenting

[@shelleykennedy2857]

Thank you for the step by step instructions! Now all I need is my husband to be as pleasant as you were when he changes our filter later today 😁

[@VansWorld]

Thank you. I hope he is in good spirits too.. 😀 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment

[@bobbysclassickaraoke9436]

thats funny

[@ashkumar8012]

You made it easy. i am changing 1st time Thanks a Lot God Bless You

[@kysassafras]

You do a great job explaining and demonstrating this intimidating job.

[@VansWorld]

😁👍 thanks.

[@6644charlie]

Replacing my sand and ur video came up. Very simple to follow. From this 72 year old man,,,, Thanks.🙂

[@94q45t]

Terrific videos that will save me about $300. Two things I might do differently is to replace the O-ring under the valve and to use a union joint on the lines to/from the filter. They are made for this kind of occasional disconnect/reconnect.

[@VansWorld]

👍😁

[@spthurston]

Perfect post! Exactly what I needed and got me ready for the summer! Thank you!

[@sidneyjones8618]

Doing mine next week. Thanks for the heads up!

[@VansWorld]

👍😁

[@ronaldaospeedweed148]

Old pool company I used to work for overcharged more than the damn moving companies did! I would go back to their houses after hours and help them with much cheaper (and just as effective) options. From plugging up skimmer pinhole leaks to doing sand changes myself for about $80-100 instead of $600+ on the job. I don't like ripping folks off, especially when I know times are tough. I've come back to this video multiple times for a refresher since I still help some folks with their pools. Glad it's still up.

[@trudymccuistion1502]

Thanks! Great video. I’m getting ready to do mine.

[@paulconti4064]

Thanks so much for sharing. Im changing my sand today!! thanks again

[@lisagr2888]

Thanks! I’m ready to change the sand, good video.

[@aarongomez4564]

[@danfolk5996]

Thanks! Good video which answers some of the problems I have been having!

[@AlexisMartinez-zd7xf]

Explained more clear than a crystal clear pool, you da man thanks!!!!!!

[@VansWorld]

😁👍 I appreciate that

[@pshirmey]

Love your style!

[@glencabbage52]

Much appreciated, sir. This helps us decide whether or not to do this ourselves or have the pool store come out.

[@brianonthego]

Yours looks much better than my old filter. I try to rinse it and add sand. I need to do this.

[@VansWorld]

Yeah. It had been 4 years since it had the sand replaced. I could tell last year it was getting close to needing changed. It’s not a hard job. It’s intimidating if you’ve never did it before.

[@nicholejohnson1173]

I’ve been terrified to do this, this is so so helpful! Thank you!!

[@boardgamecloset]

Thanks foe the video! Just swapped it out easily.

[@MellyBenelli]

Great video. Thanks for posting.

[@Rudys7]

Thanks mate, you were big help!

[@thomasnmuziani6421]

Outstanding video. Very informative and helpful in avoiding pitfalls

[@DanburyConnecticut]

followed this yesterday and changed the sand no problem. amazing how the wet/dry vac sucks up that sand! unfortunately the PSI is still close to 30 on my pool so i'm gonna get another gauge, mine might be shot. Pool clears up quicker now though!

[@VansWorld]

Awesome. Glad everything worked out for ya. And those gauges don’t last long at all.

[@beckywaldron9556]

Thank you!!

[@rfc-793]

Regarding saving time: unions just make sense. I've had unions on mine for 10 years and they have yet to leak. Original o-rings. I use a little dab of Magic Lube.

[@HedelTorres]

Thanks!

[@ricaielli]

Great help. Thanks

[@VansWorld]

Glad it helped

[@mikebrewer2454]

My filter has the 2 lines goin in the side of it. I’m sure replacin the sand in mine will be done the same way as yours. I just thought that I would throw in the differences in the lines FYI for anyone w/the same line arrangement as mine . Thank You Much For The Tutorial !!!😜!!!
