I have a 15’ round intex with a 12” intex sand filter. It says 2100GPH pump rate and 1600GPH system rate. I put in a larger outlet, so I’m guessing I’m maybe more around 1800-2000 flow rate, but I’m not really sure. I guess we’ll just call it 1600 to be safe.
I tried the discharge side intex vacuum and the thing just gets stuck and doesn’t move. I’ve heard about 50/50 people that it works great vs same experience as me.
I want to try a suction side auto vacuum, but I’m worried my pump is too small to effectively work it. Any suggestions on what type of vacuum works best with lower pressure, or advice on specific model? I’m leaning towards a barracuda style, but would rather not waste $300.
