While many homeowners delay this maintenance, you should typically replace the sand in your pool filter every 8 seasons. Over time, the rough edges of the sand wear down and become smooth, losing their ability to catch fine dirt and debris.

• Signs your sand needs replacing: You will know it is time for a change if your filter requires constant backwashing, the pressure gauge is consistently running high, you notice poor suction, or you start seeing sand blowing back into the pool through the return jets.
• The Glass Media Upgrade: If your sand is due for a replacement, we highly recommend upgrading to premium glass media—especially if you have a built-in backwash/waste line. It filters out much finer particles than standard sand, lasts significantly longer, and keeps your water crystal clear.
