Description

The Waterway 16" Carefree Sand System (520-5307-6S) delivers dependable water clarity in a ready-to-install package. Its rugged filter tank and 1.0 SPL HP pump are mounted on a one-piece base for stability. With a pre-wired 3-ft NEMA cord, setup is fast and convenient. The top-mount multiport valve makes operation simple, with settings for filter, backwash, rinse, and waste. Built for long-term use, this system is a smart choice for above-ground and compact in-ground pools.

Pro Tip

Backwash only when the pressure rises 8–10 PSI over clean start-up level. Using high-quality #20 silica or glass media improves filtration and reduces cleaning frequency.

Installation Tips

Set the system on a solid, level base. Confirm sand fill level before use. Use unions for plumbing connections, and always prime the pump before startup.
