Beware of parts issues June 21, 2010
Size Name:16-Inch|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this filter around June 1 to replace another old sand filter. Because I was out of town for awhile I could not install this filter right away and it was about 2 weeks after it arrived I opened the box. This filter does NOT contain a base for the filter to sit on. Because the filter has a round bottom it can't stand on it's own without a base which should have been included in the box. Ever try to stand up an egg on it's end?

The manual in the box for the filter and the manual online at Haywards internet site for the same model numbers are not the same. There seams to be a production change with this filter and the base so that the base can be used on other models as well. Either way I was in the pool business for 7 years in the past and have never seen a filter that did not contain a base that sets it upright. A base for the filter is NOT an extra item. They are either already attached by glue/tape or have someway to mount the base to the filter. Without a base this filter is usless as you can't simply bury it in the ground. At current I'm trying to get a base from Hayward but they don't seem to want to help and there reply to my email was this... "The larger base only comes with the S166T92S system". Well as I replied back I'm not talking about a "Bigger" base. I'm talking about "ANY" base. So beware that the unit I received did NOT contain a base stand (also called a skirt) for the filter to sit on and my local pool place wanted $49.99 for the base which should have been included.

Excellent April 26, 2010
Size Name:18-Inch|Amazon Verified Purchase
Purchased to replace like filter that was about 13 years old. The other had some damage to the laterals and pressure gauge so I decided to replace the whole thing. This unit is great with everything included. Easy to install.

.20 Silica Sand not the sand at home depot filled the filter with 200 LBS. of the sand. I pulged in the pump a lot of of sand blew into my pool. now its going all to the bottom of my pool. now im going to my pool store sand getting the .20 silica sand which is 11.49 unlike 5.97 at home depot ( and the sand at home depot is not .20 silica sand it is the sand for a sand box which is much to fine and will slip thought the pump fins ) The reson i gave this pump 5 stars because it was my user error. over all it work great after i got the right sand now the pool is cristal clear.

I don't know if the template on top and the handle are aligned properly. When I turn it to waste, it recirculates and nothing happens as you expect. Read more
