You can try the parallel setup, but first verify the maximum flow setup for this unit and multiply accordingly to your needs.

I have two of these units set up in parallel for my 20,000 gal inground. They work great, and so much cheaper than any other alternative.

I see no reason that a parallel system wouldn't work on a larger pool. And, right now Amazon has these for about $74.00 for the 15,000 gallon model. Intex 120V Krystal Clear Saltwater System CG-28669 with E.C.O. (Electrocatalytic Oxidation) for Above Ground Pools. No ozone, but you really don't need that. You can buy a gross of these for what pool stores want for one of their units. When the cell goes bad, throw the whole thing out and buy a new one. Remember, pool stores are trying to make a years wages in 4 months and need a very large markup.

what saltwater system to purchase for a 30 x 54 23,000 gallon above ground pool trying to convert from chlorine to saltwater.

No, you can use any type of filter, but you must use a water pump rated at 700gph or greater. And yes, you must use some type of filter whether it's the intex paper filters or a sand filter. This saltwater chlorinator only chlorinates the water for you - no need with messing with chemicals!

Not sure I bought this for my sister's above ground pool and I don't know what kind of filter system they have.

I would call a local pool store and ask them what their recommendations would be for your pool. I personally would go for the bigger filter but I feel its best to check with a pool place just to be 100% sure.

You would probably want a larger pump... 1.5hp. This one is great for my 18 round (7000 gal) pool. I was very happy with the quality and the filter size would probably suit your pool.

It would be fine,I have it on a 37 gallon salt water also and it has done an excellent job for the last year, just do your maintenance.

I have a 15 foot by 48 inch above ground pool, and this works great. I bought this pump because I plan on getting a bigger pool in the next couple of years, and I didn't want to end up with a filter and pump that would be too small. This pump and filter with a saltwater system kept my pool crystal clear all summer.

Read the filter manual. Assuming you have the saltwater system you need 175#s of salt to start up. Also 55#s of sand for the filter. And 1.7#s of Cyanuric acid.

You can use the pump and filter that comes with the salt water system. Or, if you wish, you can add the sand filter to the salt water system; however, that requires some familiarity with simple plumbing to do properly. As for how much sand is necessary for leveling the pool..that is a difficult question to answer since I don't know the grade of your yard. You have to use a transit level across the diameter of the pool to determine the grade first...then, you can estimate the amount of sand needed. If your area is already level, then no sand is necessary. Be aware that leveling the area using sand is not recommended. You can use the pump and filter that comes with the salt water system.

Yes it will work fine for pumping out a saltwater pool, simply rinse the unit off when your finished. The salt will only damage the unit if it is allowed to sit on the unit. It is a very durable unit I used it to drain a 1 acre pond for yearly maintenance and it was run 8hrs a day for 10 days straight. Keep and eye on the oil and change it as recommended!

I have an 18' above ground hard side pool and I only run the filtering system about 4-6 hrs a day, it has a 1hp pump and the system works fantastic

You need the separate pump for the saltwater system. It will attach to the pump that comes with the pool.

You would need to do some research as I am not sure. My pool is only 10,000 gallons. There is probably some formula for how big of a DE filter is needed for a 30,000 gallon pool.

Hi Brenda we purchased the 18 by 52 it came with the salt water system and the Sand pump the salt water system is awesome the water is so clear and great on the skin and hair and no burning eyes. So if the pump that came with is not a sand pump I would recommend you get one. We decided not to level under the pool with sand because after we take our pool down for the winter we did not want a big sand pile left for all the neiborhood animals to use as a litter box so we used cinder blocks. My husband dug a hole in the ground and put the block in and lined each pole up on each block he used a stick with a level on it and it worked out great! Enjoy your pool I'm sure you will love it

that should work really well. my pool (9x18) has a foot print of about 12x20 (that includes the pump/filter).

I used a full 40lb bag of sand to fill the filter to the line in the tank, make sure you use the correct sand also bought at a pool supply, same with the salt, I used over 200 lbs for my 24' X 52" pool, the pump will tell you if the salt is strong enough, my sand filter came with a chart showing the amount needed for all of intex's pools..
