    The cartridge filter is mainly a backup in case the pump on the sand filter goes out, which is what happened on my first filter last summer. It can also be lined up to a future waterfall.

    Here is the close up of the lights. The picture is a setup normally used for camping and hunting. For my install, all the pieces are separated. Once separated you can place all the pieces where you want them. The guy who designed the lights can give you more detail. They work great!

    Help with chemicals

    No rust stains around the house...I'm having to fill slowly as not to burn up my well pump. We had a good rain yesterday and I can tell the water is changing colors. Can I start adding the chemical now or do I need to wait until it's full? If have to wait, what can I do to slow the algae...

    INTEX 2650 SWG/Filter Combo VS 2650 Filter with detached SWG

    Re: INTEX 2650 SWG/Filter Combo VS 2650 Filter with detached @Taterfink - I haven't set it up yet. Building a deck and still killing grass. As soon as I get it set up I will post. I can tell you, "It's Huge!" I didn't think about having to replace one if it breaks. That's an excellent point...

    INTEX 2650 SWG/Filter Combo VS 2650 Filter with detached SWG

    Hi Everyone, I have the Intex 26x52, and was wanting to know if there is any difference with running the INTEX 2650 GPH Saltwater System & Sand Filter Combo VS running the 2650 Filter with a detached SWG. Also planning to hard pipe, so that's 1 pro. Thanks
