Glad to have found this site again!! Got a new pool this year a 20'x48" Intex Ultra. In the middle of a SLAM right now, crazy hours at work and getting sick slipped on my maintenance. The pool has been great, only thing I haven't cared for is the filter it came with a 2100 sand filter. I would like to upgrade to a better filter as the 2100 seems anemic for a pool of this size. I came across and article on in the swim about filter upgrades. They recomend the Hayward X-Stream 150 sq. ft. and the Hayward Perflex 25 sq. ft. filters. I was considering the X-Stream but in the maunal it says to not use with storable pools, any particular reason why?
 
Your filter is simply a storage location for particulate matter removed from the water column. It has nothing to do with water clarity or sanitation. As long as you understand that, all is good. Use whatever filter fits but I would not waste my money if nothing is wrong with the current filter.
