Sand Filter Media - 150 Pounds

I have a 4-year old sand filter for a 27K gal pool. My pool was balanced, but consistently cloudy, even milky. I tried everything from back-flowing weekly and vacuuming daily to using clarifier and floc. Lots of milky water poured out with every weekly back-flow. I finally suspected the sand in the filter. Perhaps it was not filtering well. Some say 3-5 years is the max for pool sand. I ordered 150 lbs of ZeoSand for my 300 lbs sand filter, swapped the filter agent (sand for ZeoSand), and my pool became crystal clear in a week. Perhaps something else did the trick, but I say it's the ZeoSand.

I have used this for about 6 years and figured time to replace. Was not having issues but it is only reasonable that the particles would wear down. I followed the directions and then some. I cleaned filter out and added 6 bags slowly. Then filled filter until it would overflow out the waste pipe. The "dust" is very dirty so I let it drain off naturally as the hose filled the unit. That got a lot of dirty water out. Then sealed it all up and started filter on backwash. When it finally ran clear which was rather quickly I set it to filter and away we went. I added a picture of the pool about 4 hours after the restart. I have no idea what other customer's issues are. This is the second time I have used this product in a 24,000 gallon pool and have had NO ISSUES. They obvioulys received a bad batch or are doing something wrong.

do not use if there are trees in the area

We foolishly didn’t take care of of our pool this winter (Florida’s panhandle) and we literally had a swamp of green Algae. We followed all the recommendations but our water just wouldn’t clear up and the muster algae wouldn’t go away. On a recommendation from a pool guy, we swapped out our old sand and within three days we had clean clear water

I was a little concerned after reading some reviews about this causing a green color to the pool but after following the instructions and backwashing until the water is clear in the sight glass it has worked soooo much better than regular pool filter sand. Can’t believe how clear it causes the water to be!

After fully cleaning my sand filter and checking all parts. I carefully refilled with this product. It seems to have enough smaller dust that it leaks through and settles on the pool bottom. Every 2 or 3 days I have to re-Vacuume on filter.Running on bypass it does not happen. 💁‍♂️💁‍♂️💁‍♂️

Wow! This sand kept my pool looking super clear, so long as you follow instructions and backwash before filtering into pool. It’s almost been a month and my pressure is still low. = longer time between backwashes.

If Sand is Cloudy at first, Simply rinse sand using 1/4 cup of epsom salt dissolved in 1-2 cups water. Pour directly into the filter and backwash sand. Then water is Crystal clean. Great for intex pools & intex sand filters.
