Pentair Dynamo 1hp pump
Pentair Sand Dollar SD-35 100lb Sand Filter
1 return
Pump and sand filter hooked up with hoses (fixing to hard plumb)
400 ft solar heater
I'm having a couple of issues with my sand filter. Instead of putting a $100 into my sand filter I thought it may be better to just go ahead and replace it with something bigger.
Would a bigger sand filter clean better? ( I have to keep a sock in my skimmer at all times now)
Is my pump big enough to run a bigger filter?
Does Hard plumbing make a difference on flow?
I appreciate any help or advice. I have researched pumps and filters but don't understand a lot about what would work best. I'm thinking a Hayward would be easier to find replacement parts instead of the Pentair.
