    Excellent job you guys. If anyone wants to try this I'd just like to add a piece of advice. Before adding sand to the filter always fill the bottom with water, at least to the top of the laterals (the little legs the vertical pipe in the center is attached to). It prevents the laterals from breaking when pouring in the sand and ensures the sand is distributed evenly across the bottom of the filter. You guys did a great job and you can get away with doing it this way most the time, but its a pain in the ass if something goes wrong. Filling the bottom with water ensures nothing can go wrong.

    The unit heats up fast and is super quiet. It looks fancy ruclips.net/user/postUgkxl8Od2BvnGbn1ffwqsuFXW0QnmcZgMiVY and can be kept in the living room. It gets hot within a split second of turning on the unit. The build quality is exceptionally good and is safe to be around kids and pets. This one is super quiet and can be kept on while in office meetings, my wife loved it. It shows the temperature right on the unit which is very useful and adding a rotating feature helps to heat up the surrounding, so other people will not fight with you for heat. It is right as described in the description..!! Definitely recommend!!

    We bought a used metal above ground pool that came with a very huge sand filter about three times bigger than that one, and a one horse Hayward pump. With the right chemicals it keeps our pool super clean and clear all through the summer. And the sand filter is easy to maintain I would highly recommend this to anyone with an above ground pool. I would love to have a waterfall like that on ours!

    The primer creates a better weld on the PVC, but it also creates a weak spot for eventual failure as well, especially for PVC exposed to the sun. Sanding the area you are gluing and the fitting and then wiping the dust off is just as effective as Primer, but you won't have the weak spot later on that primer creates. I paint or insulate to extend the life of my PVC.

    @gavincline209 2 года назад

    You can probably buy the same style jets or “returns” as the inlets, and just have to cut the same size hole out of that spot.
    Then everything is same 1.5” diameter threaded hook ups for suction and return port in the liner.
    From what I see, the returns y’all bought are the same piece as the jets in any pool, you just screw the actual “jet” piece into the other side that’s threaded. They come with the same gaskets and mounting rings as everything else.
    Make doing this even easier since everything is the same size and known to fit together perfectly I.e basic pvc plumbing fittings used everywhere together

    Nice!! I live here in Tucson and I just bought this same exact pool and intex sand pump and I want to do this but I really don't want to drain alot of that water in order to cut bigger holes. Any way around that? Lol!

    What size is the o-rings and where did you get them? I cant find anything with a 55mm OD that's 3/16" inch thick.
