Product Overview
This 2,800 GPH sand filter pump runs on standard 110-120 volt household power and moves water through at a system flow rate of 2,150 GPH when filtering. The six-function control lets pool owners switch between filter, backwash, rinse, recirculate, drain, and close system modes. A built-in strainer basket makes cleaning straightforward and helps the sand last longer, while the included 24-hour automatic timer handles scheduling without manual restarts. GFCI safety shutoff provides electrical protection during operation, and Hydro Aeration Technology works to improve circulation, filtration, and water clarity while increasing negative ions at the water surface.
- Pumps 2,800 gallons per hour with a 2,150 GPH system flow rate during filtration
- Six-function control covers filtering, backwashing, rinsing, recirculating, draining, and system closure
- 24-hour automatic timer schedules operation, and the strainer basket simplifies cleaning
- GFCI safety shutoff protects against electrical faults
- Hydro Aeration Technology improves water clarity, circulation, and filtration while boosting negative ions at the surface

Care Notes
- cleaning: Clean the strainer basket regularly to maintain optimal flow rate and protect the sand filter media. Backwash the filter when pressure gauge indicates buildup.
- storage: Drain all water from the pump and filter before winter storage in freezing climates. Store indoors in a dry location.
- material warnings: Always ensure GFCI is functioning before each use. Never operate the pump without water in the system.
- replacement parts: Sand filter media should be replaced every 3 to 5 years depending on usage and water conditions.
Use Cases
- Maintaining water clarity in above-ground pools up to 15,000 gallons
- Automated filtration for pools requiring daily cleaning cycles
- Residential pool setups with standard 110-120V electrical outlets
- Seasonal pool maintenance from spring opening through fall closing
- Pools in areas with heavy debris requiring frequent backwashing
- Homeowners upgrading from cartridge to sand filtration systems
Why It Works
- primary benefit: The 2,800 GPH pump flow rate combined with sand filtration removes particles as small as 20 microns for consistently clear pool water.
- secondary benefit: Hydro Aeration Technology increases oxygen levels and negative ions at the water surface, creating a fresher swimming environment.
Why They'll Love It
- * 2,800 GPH pump keeps pool water crystal clear * GFCI safety shutoff protects families during use * 24-hour timer automates daily cleaning cycles * Six-function valve handles filter, backwash, drain
