## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great filter
*by E***0 on June 2, 2025*

Highly recommend. Came well packaged. Our pool guy easily installed it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Save big bucks - get it here and replace the filter yourself - Great deal.
*by J***W on June 25, 2018*

Great price. Save some big bucks like others. We had a 19 year old fnsp60 with a crack in the base. Whoever said that if you fix a crack in a pool filter just buys you time, they were correct. I fixed a 1/4" crack in our old one with marine epoxy.2 weeks later it split to about an inch and started leaking badly - then I installed more epoxy and put some of that wonder tape over it. Each time, I repaired it from the inside.The 2nd patch lasted about a week and I had a 6 inch crack on the base and flooded 1/3 of my backyard.This one is really nice. My old one had fiberglass flakes so you had to have gloves on any time you handled it. The new one doesn't have the annoying fiberglass flakes that can get into your skin.All I did to replace this was to unscrew the 2 joints going into the old filter. I luckily had one of those "Jaw" type of oil filter wrenches and it fit perfectly over the union mount to unscrew it to get the old one out, and screw it back into the new filter.The new one lined up exactly at the same height as my old one so all I had to do was to slide it into place and screw the unions back on.I used plumbers tape at all joints, including the pressure relief valve and pressure valve.I screwed the pressure gauge into the pressure relief valve, then screwed the pressure relief valve on to the upper cover. To adjust the angle of the face of the gauge, I held onto the valve and unscrewed the gauge a little until I could easily see the gauge (instead of the gauge facing the house).I did make a mistake, though, and didn't replace to big O-rings in the unions so my lower union is now leaking a bit - but that's my fault for being lazy. Just mentioning that so you don't make the same mistake as I.I was a little intimated before I did this, but I'd removed the top from my old one (DE Leaks, Replaced the entire grid assembly, fixing the cracks) so I knew there wasn't very much to this filter in terms of complexity or number of pieces and parts. It's 80 pounds and bulky, so I did have to get help from my wife and daughter to lift it over the pipes into the final location of the filter.By the way, I ordered this on a Wednesday. Amazon said it'd be there Monday, but it actually arrived early on Friday, so it took less than 2 days to arrive after I ordered it.
