Where is the model number on my pool filter?
Read the filter’s information tag. All pool filters are labeled with an information tag on their tank. This tag includes the name of the manufacturer, model name, the various sizes of the filter in that line of models. The size of your specific unit should be marked or highlighted on this tag.
How do I know what filter I need for my pool pump?
The filter flow rate must be rated at least the same GPM as your pump, or higher. With pool filters, it’s best to err on the larger size so it can handle the power of your pump. A helpful rule of thumb is to choose a filter with at least 1 square foot per 10,000 gallons pool capacity.
How do I know what size pool filter I have?
Filter Size to Pool Size Another rule of thumb I have for pool filter size is to look at the swimming pool size in gallons. If you’ve never calculated this before, take some measurements. The formula is Length x Width x Average Depth x 7.5, for rectangular pools. For oval pools, change the multiplier from 7.5 to 5.9.
What size filter do I need for a 15000 gallon pool?
300 sq ft filter
So for a 15,000-gallon pool, I suggest a 300 sq ft filter, for a 20,000-gallon pool a 400 sq ft filter and for a 30,000-gallon pool a 500 sq ft filter. You can use a smaller filter if you choose, just note that you will be cleaning it often and the water flow may not be as efficient as going with a larger filter.
