I'm in the UK the coldest it probably gets at worst is -10°c

I have an intex agp with a large intex pump/ sand filter. I have put the pump in the shed for the winter I'm wondering if the sand filter will be ok left out all winter??? All equipment has been drained of water. Many thanks.

yea man I'm definitely not an expert and there are people on here who are. just saying my experiences. I have 4 kids every time they go in it's mental and I loose about a ft of water and like I said mine has overflowed many time and I have had absolutely no issues. however this doesn't make it...

I have the same pool it overflows with rain water all the time no problems so far. sometimes it overflows when I forget about the hose when I'm filling it [emoji87]

I'm reluctant to run it till I sort it.

I am really struggling to try and get rid of this air bubble is it normal or do I have a air leak somewhere?????. and help much appreciated thanks Nathan.

I have put my intex sand filter together no problems there my question is i cant seem to see a bleed for the air my old cartridge filter had one on the top?? there is one on the strainer on the front of the pump but not one on the filter part that holds the sand does it not need one??? do I just...

ok thanks

I feel crazy even asking. I have just received delivery of a intex 2800gph sand filter and pump. I live in the uk and as im sure you know it rains alot my question is the pump waterproof. obviously not the plug that is all sorted but the actual pump and filter it's self. many thanks Nathan

I have bought a intex sand filter for my 12ft pool and I'm led to belive it needs a adaptor. is there any benifit of the two different adaptors is one better than the other???. many thanks Nathan

hahahaha thanks for your imput but I have no idea what mernards is as I am in the uk

my local sand and gravel pit sell this sand is it the right stuff??? I thought it was worth a look as it's a lot cheaper than online. thanks Nathan

thanks ikorodu that helps alot. I know it's a lot of filters more than usual this year. I have cleaned them before but they never seem to come up that great. where my outside tap once was there is now a consevatory so at the moment i have to run the hose out my kitchen which make cleaning them...

would I still need those same adapters or would they be bigger for the larger pump?? yes the hoses push straight onto the pipes coming out of the pool and they have a plastic type hose clip on the pool and the pump end

ok seems like the big one is a winner. I'm sure this a very subjective question but how often on avarage should I run the pump?? I was leaving my little one on more or less 24hrs I have been through 6 filters this season so far. I have 4 kids and they always have mates round. thanks again

I know i keep posting I'm sorry I'm just so desperate to get this sorted and I want to get the right thing. these two apper to be my options one is twice the size of the other but there appears to only be 10 pounds difference.

also I was kind of figuring that I would only ever upgrade if I got quite new one it would definitely be bigger not smaller. once again thanks for all your help

I also don't have a skimmer I don't know if that makes a difference

ok i can full appreciate the big pump is overkill however the small one that I pictured from eBay is from a private seller and has no guarantee. I can find the smaller one online for 130 but when I google the shop there is some shocking reviews with regards to a complete lack of customer...

sorry for the delay this is what I have at the moment.

I'm at work at the mo as soon as I get home I will post a pic thanks for all your help

I think that one would work out a little two expensive I have found this one. would I still need adaptors as I am unsure of hose size

is this pump ok for my pool I have a 12ft meatal frame intex. also what sand should I buy?? I'm in the uk many thanks.

I have just spoke to my mum and she has offer to buy me a sand filter pump up to around 150 pounds. recommendations please. thanks again for all your help guys

I'm thinking the same to be honest I think it's a lost cause. shame as it was free. it's going to be a bummer buying another cartridge one as I was saving for a sand filter. my pool it 12ft intex meatal frame. any recommendations or is the one above good enough. I have 4 kids and they always...

the box looks perfect however we use this style plug. I thought the one in your link was a usa plug my mistake it must be a European

thanks for your help but that's to a usa plug I'm assuming they offer the same product with a UK plug. I will check the uk website.

someone has given me this filter pump while I save for a sand filter as my filter has broken. however as you can see I am not going to be able to plug that end into a 240v uk outlet. does anyone know the converter I need??? my kids are going mad it's super hot and they can't go in.? many thanks...

so would asda bleach work out cheaper than chlorine granules given how strong it is????

thanks guys. I normally just buy chlorine granules from amazon. I have looked for scent free bleach but like you say it pretty tricky to find. someone said makro might have it but I'm not sure. however like I said being in the uk the kids aren't in the pool all year so the cost isn't too bad...
