ok being a new pool guy i have had those junk intex cart filters and are just that junk. next year im stepping up in pool size and want the best i can afford to keep the pool clean with less up keep.
i was leaning towards a sand filter but after reading more into it i see the cart look like a better option. no back washing just clean filter maybe twice a season. i have seen some say once a year if they have a larger filter....
i will be stepping up to a 24ftx52 has close to 13,000 gallons. what's the least size cart system should i look into and what would be a good overkill to where it will last me a great deal of time without having to clean? Also whats pump size?
with the sand filter i see allot of people saying the size of the pump will lesson the performance of the filter due to there being to much water going threw it at once. so that being said that means less water being filtred. so lets say i get a 175 sq.ft filter and it calls for a 3/4 pump i could step it up to lets say a hp and a 1/2 to clean way more water in the same time correct?
any advice on this would be great, oh also will a swg have any effects on a cart filter system?
