Don't drain your swimming pool. DIY Pool Pump and Filter Upgrade cleans this Pool!

#DIY #diypoolfilter #summer
This video details and upgrade to a diy pool pump and filter system I built last year for my Bestway above ground swimming pool. The original design worked good but the small diy pool filter became clogged quickly and I was constantly cleaning the filter or replacing it. Another problem was the amount of time I had to run the pump to be able to clean the pool. I wanted to make this diy pool filtration system better. To fix these problems I added not one but two 4.5 inch by 20 inch filters. This video details how I did this and the changes I had to make to he able to accomplish this. Links for the products used are listed below. If you have any questions please feel free to put them in the comments section and I will answer them the best I can.

Super helpful! Studying for next summer! Making a DIY cocktail pool.

[@JustaDude123]

DIY Cocktail Pool? You have sparked my interest. Please explain this concept

[@sherryfowler8129]

Good jo thanks for the info will definitely consider when our pump dies

[@JustaDude123]

Thank you! Seems like any pump you use these days doesn’t last too long. That set up did get my pool the cleanest out of any pump/filter Ive had so far.

[@nathanholsinger1414]

Could the filters be submergd, since they are water tight? Thinking of a diy pool vacuum project.

[@JustaDude123]

Im pretty sure they can be but haven’t experimented with it. Let me know how it works out please.

[@HowIDoThingsDIY]

Great fix, Dude!

[@JustaDude123]

Thank you!

[@AXELDIAZ-xg7hu]

Hey would you have the video of the build for the cabinet ??

[@snydergd91]

How long did it take to clear up the water with this in the end?

[@JustaDude123]

It took a couple days for sure. A lot of filter cleaning. I think I ran the pump all night for two days. Hope this helps. Thank you for watching!

[@snydergd91]

@@JustaDude123 Thanks for the reply. That helps! I really like the solution you came up with and appreciate the video!

[@JustaDude123]

It’s so horrible that so many people waste a LOT of water simple because they’re so lazy…
