I have a 24' round above ground pool, that is approximately 13,000 gallons.
The pool has been in place for a number of years, but the DE filter that had been installed started to get old and leaky so I decided I want to get a new one this year. I also have a feeling the actual pump was too big for the pool (a 2HP pump).
So I'm basically starting over, and need to buy a new pump and DE Filter. So far I've figured out that I only need a 1HP pump for my pool, but I still can't figure out what is the best filter to get.
I'd prefer to buy a 'pump and filter' package, because I'm not very handy with plumbing, and rather not start cutting up PVC piping.
I'm fairly confident I need a 1-HP pump, but can anyone suggest what size filter I would need?
Thanks!
