It's hard replying to customers on YouTube... limit to how many characters you can type and you can't put web links in the messages. The Aqua Smarte connects between the pool filter and the pool. It puts the chemicals and natural minerals in the pool for you. All you do is replace the cartridges. You can find a video on our site. Google "Family Leisure" and search "Aqua Smarte Chlorinator" on our site.

Im so happy I found your channel! I would like to know how do you know when to change the sand in the filter? I have had my pool for 4 years and they told me at about 5 years to change it. Is this correct and how do you check to see if the sand needs to be refilled? Thanks!

@lookinatyouto Sorry for the slow response. You should change your sand every 2 years. You don't want the sand to calcify during the winter!

I have 2 questions. One is how do you know when its time to change sand and where do you get.

Also you say dont backwash until the water is trickeling back in. so do I hold my hand onderwater where the water comes back in and judge if diffirent form usual

Can you put chlorine tablets in the pump of the filter if you don't have a skimmer.

Nice videos my man....I just made an order with you guys...SPECIFICALLY because you guys do these helpful videos. I'd rather give my cash to someone who cares as much as you guys do....since you're looking to teach others and not just grab the money and run.....

Great job..

Really useful video, I understand the whole process a lot better. I'm thinking of changing the sand in my filter for Crushed Glass. Is is any better than sand? are they interchangable? or do you need a special filter for crushed glass?
