Description

The Waterway 22" Carefree Sand System (520-5347-3S) is engineered for mid- to large-size pools needing dependable water clarity. The 1.5 SPL HP pump delivers strong circulation, while the 22" composite tank handles heavier filtration loads. A one-piece molded base makes installation easy, and the top-mount multiport valve allows quick changes between filter, backwash, rinse, and waste modes. Built for performance and long-term reliability, this system is ideal for residential pool owners looking for simple, effective filtration.

Pro Tip

Fill with #20 silica sand or glass filter media. Backwash when pressure rises 8–10 PSI over clean starting pressure to maintain efficiency.

Installation Tips

Install on a stable, level pad. Confirm correct sand fill level before startup. Always prime the pump before operating and use unions on plumbing for easier servicing.
