2 Bag Premium Black Pool Sand Filter Uni (5 year Warranty)

Product Description

The 2 Bag Premium Black Pool Sand Filter Uni (5 year Warranty) is engineered for pool owners who want strong filtration performance, durability in harsh outdoor conditions, and easy, reliable operation. The tank features a reinforced seam and a reinforced section where the multiport connects, improving long-term strength in a high-pressure, high-flow environment.

With a 545mm corrosion-resistant, UV-stabilised polymer tank, this filter is well-suited to small-to-medium residential pools where consistent turnover is essential for clarity and chemical distribution. The matte black finish offers improved UV resistance and matches most modern pump finishes, giving a clean, integrated look at the equipment pad.

Operational Note: This unit uses a sight glass for backwash clarity checks (no pressure gauge).

Frequently Asked Questions

What pool size is this filter suited for?
It’s generally suitable for pools up to 15,000–40,000 litres, depending on pump strength, plumbing layout, and media choice.

When should I backwash this sand filter (no pressure gauge)?
A practical baseline is every 2–3 weeks, depending on debris load, bather load, and water clarity. Backwash sooner if flow drops or clarity worsens.

How long should I backwash for?
Backwash until the sight glass runs clear (often about 1–3 minutes, depending on how dirty the filter is).

How long should I rinse after backwashing?
Switch to RINSE for 15–30 seconds, then return to FILTER.

Do I need to rinse after backwashing?
Yes. RINSE helps settle the media bed and prevents dirty water returning to the pool when switching back to FILTER.

What does each 6-way multiport setting do?

FILTER: normal filtration
BACKWASH: cleans the media bed
RINSE: settles media after backwash
WASTE: bypasses filter to drain
RECIRCULATE: bypasses filter and returns water to pool
CLOSED: stops flow (only change positions with the pump OFF)

Can I use ECO Glass?
Yes. It supports up to 60kg ECO Glass, which can improve filtration and extend cleaning cycles.

What pumps are compatible?
It pairs best with 0.37kW–0.55kW–0.6kW and 0.75kW pumps from AQUA MAX, STORM, EARTHeCO, QUALITY, SPECK, and AQUAGEM.

Is the valve included?
Yes, it includes a 6-way multiport valve for full system control.

Is professional installation available?
Yes. PoolDudez.co.za can install and optimise the filter setup for your pump size and pool volume.
