This video was so helpful! My dad used to always take care of our pool and he passed away and left me in charge! come to find out when I opened the pool this year the stand pipe for the laterals was broken, watched this video a couple times, got my confidence up and did the whole repair myself! Thanks for sharing:)

I’m glad it helped. Sorry about your dad passing away. Have a good one 😁👍

Outstanding video. Very informative and helpful in avoiding pitfalls

my local pool store gave me an estimate of 'around $600' to change out the sand. That didn't include the price of the sand or a replacement O-ring. Your video was simple to follow so I'll do it myself this weekend. Thank you sir for a job well done!

@David Flowers. I would not give that pool store another dime for anything. That is ridiculous. My store quoted my $1000 to install a whole new one unit with sand.

Doing mine this weekend. The laterals was the only thing I was worried about but after watching this, will be a piece of cake. Thanks

Very interesting and informative. Been having trouble with the filter and this explains why. I've been working with original sand from many, many years ago. Time for a change!

Replacing my sand and ur video came up. Very simple to follow. From this 72 year old man,,,, Thanks.🙂

This is one of the best how to videos I have seen! Sincerely sir, thank you.

5 years ago and still very helpful. Used your vid today for my filter. Thanks brotha!!!

Thank you for ALL of your advice. Watching your video made it easy for us to do this for the first time... Your Video made it all the way to the Philippines ....

Can't even describe how much confidence this video gives me. Thanks for a great DIY video.

Thank you so much for this video! I was quoted quite a large amount to change my laterals and labor. Cost me less then half the amount to do it myself and your video helped me do it! Minus the almost cutting off a finger 😂 thanks for the video!!!

Man buddy, you are awesome! Thank you for posting this video up. Really helped me a whole lot with the same filter you have, just not with the variflo-multiport valve on top. Rather mine is side-mounted.

Best, most direct and clear of any video on any process I have viewed on any project. Thanks...

Thank you your video was very helpful. Ended up saving me close to $400. Much better in my pocket then the pool store service charge.

Thank you for the step by step instructions! Now all I need is my husband to be as pleasant as you were when he changes our filter later today 😁

You made it easy. i am changing 1st time Thanks a Lot God Bless You

Worked great for me, especially the water in before the sand. Thanks.

I am about to have to move all of my pool lines and pump to a shed away from my patio. I was worried about moving the filter but this gave me the information I need to complete the job. Thanks for the video.

Thanks for this very informative video. My pool guy said he'll charge me $350 so, thanks to you, looks like I'll save about $250! The use of a shop vac to remove enough sand before dumping out the rest is a great tip for me because I thought I was going to have to hire a young, STRONG handyman to tip the cannister over to remove the 300 pounds of sand. (I'm 67, BTW, so my heavy-hefting days are far behind in the rearview mirror!)

A lot of hard work. Good job. My father had one of these filters but he changed out to a salt water system.

Well done Brother! Short, simple, and Spot on!👊Im a do it yourself-er and was a little shocked at the price of the pool sand. Thank you!

Thank you so much for this video!! This was so helpful!!! God bless you guys!!!

Terrific videos that will save me about $300. Two things I might do differently is to replace the O-ring under the valve and to use a union joint on the lines to/from the filter. They are made for this kind of occasional disconnect/reconnect.

Thanks so much for sharing. Im changing my sand today!! thanks again

Old pool company I used to work for overcharged more than the damn moving companies did! I would go back to their houses after hours and help them with much cheaper (and just as effective) options. From plugging up skimmer pinhole leaks to doing sand changes myself for about $80-100 instead of $600+ on the job. I don't like ripping folks off, especially when I know times are tough. I've come back to this video multiple times for a refresher since I still help some folks with their pools. Glad it's still up.

Thanks! Good video which answers some of the problems I have been having!

Doing this in the next few days. Great video. Thank you

Thanks! Your video helped so much! Going to watch more of them.

Thanks! I’m ready to change the sand, good video.

Wow my husband is a pool tec and now I understand him more! He does everything we own a pool co for 17 yrs

Thanks! Great video. I’m getting ready to do mine.

Doing mine next week. Thanks for the heads up!

Yeah. It had been 4 years since it had the sand replaced. I could tell last year it was getting close to needing changed. It’s not a hard job. It’s intimidating if you’ve never did it before.

My filter has the 2 lines goin in the side of it. I’m sure replacin the sand in mine will be done the same way as yours. I just thought that I would throw in the differences in the lines FYI for anyone w/the same line arrangement as mine . Thank You Much For The Tutorial !!!😜!!!

Thanks for video very helpful!

Thank you

followed this yesterday and changed the sand no problem. amazing how the wet/dry vac sucks up that sand! unfortunately the PSI is still close to 30 on my pool so i'm gonna get another gauge, mine might be shot. Pool clears up quicker now though!
