    Anyone dealt with poolfilters.biz?

    I think the guy who wanted the update is no longer here but... After a bout 2.5 years, running great and cleaning up nicely. Not looking to replace them any time soon. How long should a set of filters last?

    Pentair 11017 vs 11018

    That pump IS on Gulf Powers list which make that pump VERY inexpensive to buy. It would be nice to see some reviews though. Sometimes, you get what you pay for...
