Fiberglass Reinforced Pool Sand Filter With 6-Position Multi-Port Valve, 16-Inch Diameter, 1.5 HP
Product Spotlights
Elevate your pool’s clarity and reduce maintenance time with our Fiberglass Reinforced Pool Sand Filter — a robust, corrosion-resistant solution designed for both residential and commercial swimming pools. Manufactured by Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory (established 1998, with annual export value of US$5–10 million), this filter combines durable fiberglass construction with a precision 6-position multi-port valve, ensuring efficient backwashing and long service life. The 16-inch diameter tank and 1.5 HP pump rating deliver optimal flow for medium-sized pools, while the sand media captures particles as small as 20–40 microns.
Built with corrosion-resistant fiberglass reinforced polyester, this sand filter withstands harsh pool chemicals, UV rays, and extreme weather conditions — outperforming traditional steel or plastic filters. The integrated 6-position valve (filter, backwash, rinse, recirculate, waste, closed) gives you full control over water management, making routine cleaning simple and fast. Whether you need to replace an old filter or upgrade your pool system, our product offers reliable performance backed by decades of manufacturing experience.
