New Member: Pool Filter: Sand vs DE

[Brysz]

If you get an OVERSIZED sand filter, and run your pool on low speed 24/7, you'll get water clarity as good as with a DE filter, but with far less maintenance.

Tell us your pool gallons before you buy the filter, and we can size it for you.

Question...you mentioned low speed. My return jet has so much pressure I cant hold my hand in front of it. Could this be a reason for my poor filtration? Thank you...

Very possibly. Complete the Pool Chart, and we'll be able to make a better guess:
