INTEX C2500 Krystal Clear Cartridge Filter Pump for Above Ground Pools: 2500 GPH Pump Flow Rate – Improved Circulation and Filtration – Easy Installation – Improved Water Clarity – Easy-to-Clean

Learn from my mistakes, don't waste all your time & money this summer. Here is how I cleared my brown iron infested pool up in just 3 days! We decided to attempt to set up a pool again this year & I forgot how tedious the whole process is, but this filter ended up being a savior! I decided to start small and ordered the 8ft intex pool from Target (99$) & although it claimed it came with a filter pump it didn't. I figured it was a small pool so I could get away with a small pump so I ordered an off brand 330 pump ($79). We have a septic water system so our water is full of iron thusly when we filled the pool it was super cloudy and murky. I hooked up the small filter and ran it for 10 days straight, cleaning out the cartridge daily and adding chemicals constantly...the water was slightly better but still very cloudy and brown (see 1st picture) and the iron particles that would settle on the bottom were too fine to vaccum up. After doing some research & reading a ton of reviews I decided to buy this filter. I knew from the reviews I needed to buy the adapters since I have a smaller pool, I got them for $16 here on Amazon. I read the gasket is not necessary & since it was a $60+ part I decided to hold off on that. While it works great without it it enables you to turn the water flow off for pump maintenance so it is helpful, I think eventually I will be getting one. The adapters are 100% necessary as the fittings are larger than the pool. So the filter & adapters came in just 2 days. It was super easy to install, took me like 30 minutes to do myself. If you're like me and super new to pools intex has some videos on YouTube that help a lot! I will admit the dual suction threw me off since the smaller filter only had 1 intake 1 output. Initially I installed it backwards & had 2 output hoses and 1 intake hose. The next day I realized my mistake and switched the hoses to 2 intake and 1 output. But, it still worked well that first night, that's how amazing this filter is. Being that my pool is so small this filter is super powerful!! The suction power is amazing & the output comes out like a hot tub. That old small pump didn't even move the water around, this one actually circulates it. If you're like me and have hard water or iron issues Google "pool sock method". I filled socks with pillow stuffing and zip tied them to the output hose than rinsed them clean a few times a day. The helped to collect those tiny stubborn iron particles. After the 1st night of running this filter the water was 80% clear (see 2nd picture). I was pleasantly surprised!! I continued using the pool socks and shocked the water the next day & it was 90% clear (see 3rd picture). After a few days of maintenance, chemicals and the occasional vaccum (I have one of those cheap pool vacs that hook up to a garden hose), I went outside to find the water 100% crystal clear!!!!! Literally all the iron particles GONE!!! Since it was super hot here last week the water feels amazing!! I feel like I finally conquered my greatest challenge yet...the brown pool water, and I owe it all to this filter!!! Yes it was a little more than I initially wanted to spend for a little pool, but it was SO worth it! I wish someone would have told me that before I wasted money on a subpar filter & weeks of having a brown pool no one could swim in!! Now that I have this amazing filter and know it works so well I plan on upgrading to the 12ft poolnext year... I just have to level out the ground better... (if you haven't put your pool up yet, LEVEL THE GROUND 1ST it really matters). But for now we are LOVING our little pool paradise. So if you have a small pump the upgrade is 1000% WORTH IT!

The 1000 gpm pump that came with my pool couldn't do it's job well at all in its second summer of use. I was shocking it every four days, the water was cloudy. I couldn't see the bottom....now...wow! Lol! Yup! I can see my feets clearly! I can see all the little blue squares and when I play empty can fetch with the dog and it falls to the bottom, it no longer gets lost. It's been a week and a half since we installed it and it hasn't needed shock. Only thing to beware of is if you let the dog cool off in the pool all day while you are at work, you'll find your water pressure go down after a week only to discover that if you unscrew the hose directly in front of the pump motor area, you'll find fur clogging the mesh screen area. The pump runs full speed again once you get that out. So maybe put a dollar store nylon stocking on your skimmer basket to cut down on that. I put it around the bottom and up around the sides since the basket is raised in the center. We bought the twin pack of 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 intex type B adapters. We bought nothing else, because like you might be doing, I researched and I thought that might be all I needed. Turns out I needed at least one "fernco ptc-150 1 1/2 to 1 1/4 inch pipe connecter (coupler). Home depot had some in stock nearby but I saved the hour trip to and from and just ordered it off amazon. The intex adapters were the exact same size as the fittings on our summer waves so they would not slip right over the summer waves pipes. It cost an extra $1.30 but fine with me. In the mean time we used the shiny new intex water return jet that came in the box with our new pump and hoses. Cutting tiny slivers at a time. Not too much or we'd be buying another pool if we made the hole too large and ruined the liner. While we waited for our fernco coupler (pink package with short gray pipe silver tightening bands on either side) we used the 1 1/4 summer waves hose that came with and ran from the filter canister to the old return jet to hook up our new pump temporarily. We used one of the intex type B adapters, screwed it onto the new intex hose and to the new pump. We fastened the old summer waves hose to the filter canister on the side of the pool and found a silver hose tightening band in the garage and used it to fasten the summer waves hose down around the small end of the type B adapter (the second type B adapter is just a spare since we retro fitted the new intex return to our pool. It was a jerry rigged fit and worked perfectly fine for the few days we waited for our hose coupler to come. The plastic pipe was cinched on pretty good and I'm sure it wouldn't have lasted for ever but we got it tightened enough not to leak. Our coupler came and the summer waves hose came off and into the spare parts box. We installed the coupler onto the filter canister, put the small end of the type B through the coupler, tightened it and screwed the new 1 1/2 intex hose onto the big end of my intex adapter. I did my best to help you plan your moves if you got the same pool I have. Sorry if my writings get confusing. I did my best. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! Lol! I'm very glad I got this pump! You'll love how clean your fuzzy pool gets

I bought that $45 Costco blow up pool (333ish gallons) and this pump is PERFECT for keeping the water clean so we dont have to empty and refill. Please also be sure you are treating with chlorine and the chemicals needed to maintain healthy water! You can buy the easy test strips to be sure you are all balanced. But this little pump pulled out all of the debri and our water is totally clear! Best purchase this summer haha. Shout out to the guy won here hose hot tub review inspired me to get this one. It was super easy to put together since we didnt have to attached anything into the pool. We did like him and just put the hoses in the water and held them down with hand weights. And we stuck the little filter looking attachment on the intake hose like him to prevent clogging from any large items. Since it runs 1000GPH it essentially will clean the water in the pool 3X through in an hour. We initially ran overnight for 10 hrs to give it a good thorough cleaning and now plan to run it a few hours every few days for maintenance. You can also use it like a vacuum and drag the intake hose around the edges and corners to grab all the little build up that is difficult to pull in. My sister and I did this together since someone has to carry around the actual pump while I walked around vacuuming. Purchase of the summer! woohoo!

Buen producto, hasta ahora funciona muy bien es muy fácil de usar y bastante práctico con la programación de cuatro tiempos de funcionamiento

Excelente compra

This pump recycles the water in our 14 ft swimming pool very efficiently, especially with the skimmer attached. The suction allows the skimmer accessory effectively clean the surface water, while the pump filters the rest of the water. Regular, weekly washing of the filter will ensure water stays very clear.

Worked perfectly for my intex pool. When I changed the filter for the first time I was shocked at how dirty the filter was. It was easily to install, easy to use and was able to clean my pool in 4-6 hours.
