XtremepowerUS 16" Sand Filter Swimming Pool 3/4 HP Pool Pump Timer 15,000GAL Above Ground Pool Set

This pump is very quite. There is no on/off switch on the unit so for safety you should plug into a GFI switch controlled circuit. It appears to be built very well. You will need to buy filter sand for it but everything else you need is included (expect GFI circuit)If you watch the video on their web site you will see it is easy to put together. Even without the video it's not hard to figure out. I've only been running it for a few hours now so I don't know how well it will clean. Other reviews say it does a good job. For the price I would say it is about the best pump you can get.

This pump has made my life so much easier. No more buying those small filters that these pools come with . The sand filters are the way to go. It fit the pool perfectly. We have a 15feet x 42 pool . Putting it together was easy and it durable. My husband said it was the best investment ever! We highly recommend.

Advertised as a 3/4 HP motor. When received motor name plate says .45 thp.Thp and true HP are not the same. Nameplate motor amps are 3.6. An industrial motor rated 1hp will draw about 12 amps. A 1/2 HP motor will draw at 110 volts will draw about 6 amps. You can see my my issue with misleading advertising. Being an electrical engineer working daily with motors and VFDs, I hate when they use thp ratings, because who wants .4 service factor when calculating HP. Industrial motors are standard with 1.15 service factor. Google it!

Pump made quick work of clearing my above ground pool. My only regret is not going with a stronger pump but was a huge improvement to the stock pump that was included with the above ground pool.

Been a great filter/pump. Had for a year now, Going strong. Wish it had a recirculate function, And a timer. Overall great for the money.

Ditch the pumps that come with your above ground pool. This saves so much hassle! Highly recommend.

Bought this last summer. Initially it worked great. crystal clear water, powerful return like a hot tub jet. But hoses seemed to get leaks often. It’s best to have back up hoses in storage. The hose from the filter to the motor developed a leak just a few months after getting it. The water dripped down the hose and onto the motor housing. Woke up one morning and noticed the pump had not run all day. Pressed the power button to turn it on and it shut off as soon as it turned on. We took the motor apart and everything appeared fine. Can’t figure out what happened. Very upsetting as it’s now almost summer again and we do t have a working pump and i don’t want to spend over $100 on a new motor! if these things are meant to be outside in rain and pool water being splashed, why did my motor short out? very upset!

Better than expected. Very quiet.
