    Morning Pappy,

    The sand filter is a 19" with 100lbs of sand. It was sold as a package and I felt confident with what they were selling.
    Does this with a 1.5hp pump sound right for a 24' X 52" = 13600 gallons?

    I think I've read that a 1/2 hp Hayward pump, with a 200 lb filter will work on almost any AG pool, no mater how big. I KNOW Ive read that a pump that is too strong for the filter will blow stuff THROUGH the filter sand, and 1-1/2 horses sounds to me like an awful lot for a 100 lb filter. Again I'm no expert.

    Read the "Mismatched pumps and filters" section.
