Intex C330 Krystal Clear Cartridge Filter Pump for Above Ground Pools: 330 GPH Pump Flow Rate – Improved Circulation and Filtration – Easy Installation – Improved Water Clarity – Easy-to-Clean

ive had this pump for about 4 years now and its still going strong, ive even kept it going in the winter months for my DIY cold plunge pool . its very easy to clean and pumps out a steady flow of water. would definitely recommend this pump for any DIY or bought pools or small ponds.

I built a 100 gal (filled to approx 80 gal) DYI Cold Plunge and after doing my research to find the most effective & efficient way to keep the water clear & most importantly- clean, I settled on the Intex 350 GPH filter. I found this one on Amazon Warehouse for only $18!! It comes with everything needed including a filter (which can be washed and reused if not too dirty) but on warehouse you can find replacements all the time for only a few $. Once set up and you all the connections are properly sealed and the air is out of the lines, it runs beautifully. I run it for only two hours overnight using the “timer”. Keep in kind you may need to run it a bit longer upon initial set up and depending on how often you use your Plunge. To be transparent - my DYI turned out so well my son wants to replicate my set up (everything including the tub cost me no more than $160). Amazon a warehouse had a 350 gph Intext filter for $23 but they also had several Intex 1,000 gph for $26, so I am upgrading but only because I found a deal, my current filter works beautifully - which I’m keeping as a back up. I highly recommend the Intex products for your DYI cold plunge / spa - best of luck!

6 years ago we bought our daughter a pool it’s the intex 12 foot around 30 inches deep. The pool is still in great shape however the filter pump has died so I order this the description seemed as though the filter pump would the exact same that we had but instead when I arrived that was not the case the pump itself was shorter and smaller than the original also the filter cartridge inside was about quarter the size as the filter cartridge from our original pump. Also this filter pump set up costs the same amount as the entire pool cost me when I bought it 6 years ago. This pump leaked VERY BAD after my husband installed it mind you my husband is a pool man yes he works for a pool company so he knows EXACTLY what to do. Or course my husband had to find the root of the problem while I was saying F this it’s crap I’m returning it after literally 1 minute he sees the washer that is supposed be on the inner ring of the pump was not on and because it was never in the box to begin with. Bottom line I don’t know if this item would have worked properly considering the size I don’t think it would but now I will never know all thanks to a missing washer that was never put on in the first place.

Pretty good so far

I love this filter. I have a pool that does not have holes for the hoses to fit in. Instead I used some plastic weights that you can make from plastic bottles filled with sand and I glued the lids on and then I tied the bottles onto the bottles with strong string. BE PATIENT WHEN FIRST STARTING THE FILTER. YOU NEED TO PRIME THE PUMP. I USED MY GARDEN HOSE AND FILLED IT THAT WAY. THEN I PUT THE FILTER HOSE IN THE POOL AND MADE SURE THERE WAS WATER GOING IN THE FILTER HOSE. I TOOK THE GARDEN HOSE OUT OF THE FILTER HOSE AND MADE SURE THAT THE POOL WATER WAS GOING INTO THE FILTER HOSE. THIS IS A GOOD FILTER. IT WILL TAKE SOME TIME TO MAKE THE POOL HOSES TO FILL FULLY RIGHT AWAY. IT NEEDS TO WORK THE AIR OUT COMPLETELY. THIS WILL TAKE TIME AND JUST BE PATIENT. JUST MAKE SURE THERE IS WATER GOING THROUGH THE FILTER. I only wrote the instructions that helped me out in capital letters to help read the directions that had helped me get my filter going. I know how frustrating things maybe if it doesn't happen right away. Just make sure there is water going through the filter at all times. My pool is 160 gallons and is perfect for it and I would definitely buy the filter again. I have it plugged into a large extension cord that is made for outside use only. I have the cord plugged into an outside outlet. I noticed that when I plugged in the cord the filter did not go on. I had to reset the plug because the night before it rained and since it has a water saftey mode on the plug I just pressed the reset button on the cord.

I wanted to install a solar pool heater on a rise above the pool and use this pump to not only filter the water, but also to lift the water up to the heater. I was hoping to achieve a 9-foot lift, so I needed to know how high this pump could lift water. I attached a long hose to the pump and secured the end 9' up a ladder; unfortunately, when the pump was turned on, the water did not flow that high. I moved the hose end down the ladder until water just started flowing out the end; that was at about 5' off the ground. But even though water was lifted up to 5', the flow rate at that height was near zero. The pump is strong enough for it's designed purpose of circulating pool water and filtering it, but to lift water to any height requires another solution.

Works perfect with my intex pool!

We bought this last year for our little pool. Made sure we stored everything for our pool properly in our garage for the fall and winter months. We went to set up our pool this summer and it worked for about 20 min and then it stopped. Checked to make sure there wasn’t any debris clogging the impeller or motor vents. There wasn’t anything clogging it, but the pump wouldn’t continue running. I give it two stars bc when it did work for us last year, it did a great job. We just need something that lasts longer than one summer season.

Perfect fit for my hot tub. Reasonable price

Bien

Total rubbish, waste of money

Muy recomendable. Solo toma en cuenta la capacidad de agua de tu alberca. Es una bomba chica. Silenciosa pero trabaja de maravilla.

Quit working 3 months in and of course its past the return window. We have a 10ftx30inch pool and it cannot keep up. Also a huge pain in the but to change the filter, you have to disconnect the hose and spray water everywhere trying to plug it instead of them putting a simple valve in it. I'd recommend spending a bit more to get a bigger pump than this one!
