Waterway Plastics 520-5347-3s Sand Filter Pump System 1 Hp

Product Description

The WATERWAY PLASTICS 520-5347-3s is a complete sand filter and pump system engineered for above ground pool installations. The package pairs a single-speed, 1 HP pump with a 22-inch diameter sand filter capable of flowing up to 55 GPM, delivering consistent water clarity without requiring separate component sourcing. The pump connects via a 3-foot cord with a twist-lock plug, and the filter is equipped with a 7-function top-mount backwash valve for straightforward operation. Pool service professionals and knowledgeable installers will find this an all-in-one solution ready for seasonal setup.

This system is intended for residential above ground pool applications. It ships as a complete pump and filter pack, providing the hardware needed to get filtration running quickly. The 22-inch filter tank accepts up to 250 pounds of sand media, which is sold separately and must be sourced and loaded prior to startup. The system suits typical above ground pool plumbing configurations using standard 1-1/2-inch and 2-inch fittings.
