how much sand do i put into the sand filter for my above ground pool?

Answer 1

Every model of filter is different. The filter label should tell you. If that's not legible just fill it to the same level it was before you emptied the sand.

Answer 2

It depends on what size filter you have. I have a 22" filter, and it takes 150 pounds of sand (3 bags). A 18" filter typically takes 100 pounds of sand, and a small filter would take one bag - or 50 pounds - of sand. Good luck!
