Have 18' x 4" round AG pool. Buried part in ground and limited space under deck for where I have a trap door for sand filter.
Anyway need a new sand filter. Had a Jacuzzi brand one for 30 years no problems. 4 Years ago replaced with a Hayward 18" sand filter model S180T.
Seemed like the best one I could find with my height restriction.
Just found a crack in the filter at a seam of the tank.
Do they just not last that long?
Only one I could find that would fit is the 18" Hayward or a 16 1/2" Pentair.
I only need to backwash once a month now. Would the smaller pentair be better. Or just keep buying new Haywards.
Thanks
