5 years ago we bought a house that came with an above ground pool...18ft x 33ft x 52 inches.
A love/hate relationship ensued and ended more on the side of hate then love. Not to mention goofs by previous
owners. Which leads me to this. 2 kids later we are going to make a good effort to make the pool as easy as possible for us. We have a couple bad spots near the skimmer and return jet that we'll patch with new metal when
we get a new liner. The pump died on us last year and I think I want to start over with sand filter but I am
feeling a little overwhelmed by size and manufacturer etc. I know I want to take advantage of the dual speed
pump, but with the pool size, I'm not sure which heyward or pentair sand dollar or tagelus would work. I've been
told I'd need the SD70 but I can't see why I couldn't use the 60. I'd appreciate any sage advice that is
out there?
Thanks.......
