XtremepowerUS 13" Sand Filter Pump System for Above-Ground Pools — 2400 GPH, 1.25/1.5" Adapters

XtremepowerUS 13" Sand Filter Pump System combines a 2400 GPH self-priming pool pump with a rugged 13-inch sand filter tank and multi-port valve to circulate and filter above-ground pools up to 10,000 gallons.

This integrated pump-and-filter unit pairs a high-flow 3/4 HP motor with a thick-walled sand tank and a 4-way valve to simplify setup and routine maintenance for above-ground pools. It ships with standard adapter fittings for 1.25" and 1.5" hoses, a clear sight window on the strainer lid, and a built-in pressure gauge so you can see system status at a glance. The design emphasizes compatibility, durable construction, and straightforward valve functions—Filter, Backwash, Rinse, and Waste—to keep pool water turning over efficiently throughout the season.

How quickly will this system circulate my pool water?

The pump delivers a system flow rate of 2400 gallons per hour (GPH), suitable for above-ground pools up to approximately 10,000 gallons. Flow rate and turnover depend on hose length, fittings, and sand media grade, but the 2400 GPH rating provides a strong baseline for regular circulation and filtration.

• Rated flow: 2400 GPH (system)
• Pool size guidance: up to 10,000 gallons
• Self-priming motor helps maintain steady suction
• Keep hoses and adapters as short and straight as possible for best flow

What maintenance does the sand filter require and how do I backwash?

Maintenance is centered on monitoring the pressure gauge and performing periodic backwash when pressure rises above normal operating range. The 4-way valve lets you switch to Backwash and Rinse positions to clean the sand bed and expel debris without removing the tank top, and the clear strainer lid lets you check the pump basket for leaves or large debris.

• Backwash using the valve when gauge indicates increased pressure
• Rinse briefly after backwashing to reseat the sand bed
• Inspect and empty the pump strainer basket through the clear lid
• Top up or replace sand as needed; tank holds up to 43 lbs (observe MIN/MAX center-pipe marks)

Will this fit my above-ground pool plumbing and how hard is installation?

The system includes conversion fittings for 1.25" and 1.5" hoses to match most above-ground pool connections and is designed for simple, tool-light installation. Typical setup involves connecting the pump to the filter tank, attaching the supplied adapters to your pool return and skimmer lines, and securing clamps—no custom plumbing usually required.

• Includes 1.25" and 1.5" hose adapter fittings for common hose sizes
• Self-priming pump reduces complexity at startup
• Standard clamp and hose connections eliminate special fittings in most installs
• Follow manufacturer instructions for safe electrical hookup and grounding

How durable is the tank and which sand amount should I use?

The sand tank is built from UV-resistant, corrosion-resistant materials with a thick wall construction to resist weathering and extend service life. For best performance fill the tank to between the MIN and MAX markings on the center pipe; the unit supports up to approximately 43 lbs of filter sand.

• UV-resistant and anti-corrosion tank materials
• Supports up to about 43 lbs of sand media
• Center-pipe MIN/MAX marks indicate correct sand level
• Periodic inspection reduces risk of premature wear

Who is this for: The XtremepowerUS 13" Sand Filter Pump System is aimed at above-ground pool owners who want a single, compact unit that handles circulation and filtration for pools up to roughly 10,000 gallons. It suits DIY installers and seasonal pool managers who prioritize straightforward valve controls, visible system monitoring, and compatibility with common hose sizes. If you need a durable, easy-to-service sand filtration setup with a strong 2400 GPH flow rating, this unit was designed to meet those needs without complex plumbing changes.
