I upgraded the cartridge filter that came with my pool to this one and it's made a HUGE improvement. I added an over the wall basket skimmer to the outlet that goes to the filter and my pool has been clear and bug free every since. Even with the different time functions, I chose to run this filter pump 24/7 as the pool gets absolutely no shade. The impact on my electirc bill has been minimal and its also super quiet so I often walk across the yard to check on it because I cant hear it lol. Please note that if you purchase this filter pump, you WILL need additional clamps to connect at least one hose to the top of it.
For reference:
Pool: 12x24x52 above ground rectangle pool
Gallons: 7900
