New Pool owner, filter stolen, need replacement.

[Lando]

Hi- new pool owner here, unfortunately someone stole the pool filter off of the home I just recently bought

The pool has been neglected for sometime and needs some TLC. I was looking at a filter and was wondering if it would be suitable for the size pool I have (see photo, it's about 5.5 feet deep) any feedback or recommendations would be great. The pool looks a lot worse now then the photo, it's been up to a year since it was operational.

Hayward Pool Filter S210T

I'd probably go with the 244 but the 210 should be fine.

On the 244 filter is there a big difference from the 1.5 or 2in valve? I am not sure what I would need in my situation.

Not a big difference. What size pump do you have?

I believe it's a 1.5hp pump.

I'd go with the 2" valve but that's just because I'm a bigger is better when it comes to piping kinda guy!
