All of the positive reviews on here are WELL-DESERVED. We bought a 26' round Intex above ground pool in May. The pool was excellent. It was well-made, easy to put up, rugged, etc. No complaints about it at all. Silly me assumed that such a well-made pool would come with an appropriate pump. It turns out that Intex includes the same sad little 1/4-horse pump and paper filter with most or all of their above ground pools, and it just wasn't big enough for a pool this size. We struggled and struggled with algae, to the point that the busybody neighbors called the police and said that we were breeding mosquitoes. Of course, it wasn't. This is Houston and we have mosquitoes here. The pump was running and the water wasn't stagnant, so it wasn't a mosquito nest, but no amount of chemical treatments and around-the-clock filtering could knock back the algae and keep it gone. We could kill the algae, but then the pool was cloudy with dead algae and the included pump/filter couldn't get it out, even with a coagulant clarifier in it. We could floc it to the bottom and make it crystal clear for a while, but then there was no way to clean the bottom of the pool! To make things worse, the paper filter was clogging up every few hours, corona/covid had made replacement filters completely unavailable, and cleaning the couple of filters we had with a toothbrush EVERY DAY got old very fast. By July, we'd had enough and ordered the Hayward 16" sand filter and 1HP pump. As soon as I installed this AMAZING Hayward system, it was in need of a backwash within 3 hours because it had removed so much crud from the water that the old system wasn't getting. For the first day, I had to backwash every 3 to 4 hours because the old filter had missed so much crud in the water. Then I had to backwash every 8-12 hours. Then it finally went down to a few times a week and the water looked great. The Hayward filter/valve also made it very easy to connect a vacuum and either pump it out the backwash hose or run it through the filter (depending on if the particles I was vacuuming would be caught by the filter). There were no such options with the included Intex pump. When ordering, BE SURE to order a nice, long, flattening backwash hose! Just backwashing with a short hose will make a swamp near the pool. This WILL breed mosquitoes and it made the ground so soft that one side of my pool sank into the ground! I'll have to drain and re-level it next spring, but the Hayward pump/valve makes draining a snap! I also ran into a power problem, but this will vary by yard, depending on how your pool is set up. We had the Intex pump running on 16/3 extension cords that ran around the perimeter of the yard to the pump and it worked fine. When I connected the new Haward pump to this, it only ran for a few minutes before overheating and shutting down. A quick consult of my Ugly book confirmed that the power demand of a 1HP type-H motor was NOT going to be able to run on 90' of 16/3 wire. I tried cutting it back to 40' of 16/3 and ran it directly across the yard, but Ugly said that wouldn't work either, and the pump confirmed it for me by shutting down. I buried 40' of 12/3 armored wire between the patio and the pump, plugged it in with a GFCI plug on one end, and installed a weatherproof electrical box on a post by the pump. I also added a 500uF start cap by the motor to reduce inrush current. Never another problem with power! To simplify life and backwashing, I used a TP-Link KP400 between the electrical box and the pump, allowing me to set a schedule for the pump run times and turn it on/off manually by yelling to Alexa or pushing the button on the KP400. Even better, the KP400 has two individually controllable outputs, so we used the other one to power pool lights that we can tell Alexa to turn those on and off as we please. Besides the power problems that I had to struggled through (which are not really Hayward's fault), this system has been a dream come true and we should have NEVER tried to rely on the tiny Intex pump/filter. I'll sell those to someone who has a 10'-15' pool, where they will probably work fine.

Use S180T92S to replace old (20 years old) filter system for an under-ground liner fresh water pool (13,000 US gal). Although system is designed for above-ground, it works in my case. I installed system myself plus my strong son to wheel barrow old sand filter away (very heavy). Great product, great Amazon price delivered to my doorsteps. Pros: (1) Pump primes easily provided you top up water in skimmer & ensure pool water level is fairly high; once pump runs, it runs very quietly; if vacuum is undisturbed in system ie no opening of valves, skimmer cover, etc, pump primes the next time without hesistation; Note: I stopped using pump internal switch to ON/OFF pump because it caused thermal trips several times. Just ON/OFF pump directly from breaker box; (2) System comes pre-installed (almost); need to buy some missing installation accessories to complete hooking up the various hoses; maybe this is due to my usage for an under-ground pool; (3) Pump housing & skimmer body is integrated in one piece, actually looks very cool; (4) Need to buy silica sand for the filter; (5) Be careful with the collar clamp for the multi-port valve - manual says clamp it around the COLLAR, stupid me - tried to clamp around the NECK!!! some common sense is needed here, but if you do it physically yourself, you'll understand why I say it can be misleading; (6) Read manual - don't over tighten the various plastic hose adapters, otherwise they will leak;

Product arrived in two days as promised. Price was much less than some of the pool catalogs I looked at. We do not have a pool supply in our town so the only option was the internet or drive 300 miles to the nearest pool store. Installation was straight forward; instructions provided however if you connect via PVC pipe which I did you need very basic plumbing skills and tools to cut and glue the PVC pipe or you can use the clamps and hoses provided in the box. You do need a 120 volt electrical outlet within a few feet of pump. The hardest part was lifting the sand bags to fill up the filter. You can buy the sand at most lumber yards for a few bucks a bag. You need four 50 pound bags of pool filter sand. I removed the old system and installed this system in about 3 hours by myself. Hit the switch and it worked like a charm. Good power and very quiet. I installed it on a 28 foot round above ground pool, around 15000 gallons and it is all the pump and filter I need. Works great. I

This pump/filter fit the bill with the free shipping . I did have to wait a few days longer than i wanted and during the summer days with kids out of school. UGHH. It installed easily and came with everything you need... such as new hoses,clamps and most common adapters. You will need to buy shut-off valves if not replacing an old unit. My issues that reduced rating to a 4 star. 1.) The base is cheap in quality and flexes too much. 2.) causing the pump filter/ cap very differcult to remove and install correctly.... It will leak if not perfect. 3.) The cord for the pump comes in the standard 3 prong (household style).... which doesn't meet Massachusetts code. I had to rewire mine to the single "locking" type that twist on. 4.) It's still too new, with little working time to acquire a 5 star. 5.) Pump now has only 1 speed..... High! Although, it has proven to clean the pool exceptionally well.
