About this item

Highlights

  • Easy operation 6-way filter valve allows you to efficiently backwash, rinse, recirculate, drain, filter, and close the system
  • Built-in 24-hour timer enables you to set automatic filtration times for the pool to save on daily maintenance

  • Hydro Aeration Technology enhances water clarity by improving circulation and filtration

Description

Keep your above-ground pool water clean, fresh, and sparkling with the Intex 26679EG 16-inch Krystal Clear Saltwater System and Sand Filter Pump. The all-natural sand provides excellent water filtration as the 6-function control valve allows the pool owner to filter, backwash and rinse, recirculate, drain, and close the system. The built-in 24-hour timer adds to the hassle-free experience with maintaining a cleaner pool. The Krystal Clear Sand Filter Pump generates a pump flow rate of 2,650 gallons per hour, ideal for above-ground pools. Equipped with the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter, which is an added safety feature that shuts off the pump if electrical current is exposed to water. This effective pump requires virtually no maintenance except the replacement of sand every 5 years. With the Saltwater System’s electrocatalytic oxidation process, water molecules are split into oxidants that help keep the water clean. The amount of Sodium Hypochlorite generated by the saltwater system is reduced by approximately 60%, much less than other saltwater systems generate. Enjoy the same process used at many resorts in your own pool with the 16-inch Intex Krystal Clear Sand Filter Pump and Saltwater System.

Q: Is the saltwater chlorinator built in/on the sand filter pump with 1 power cord or is it a separate piece?

submitted by M - 5 years ago
  • A: Thanks for reaching out. The chlorinator is on the side of the unit, so no additional pieces are necessary.

    Garbage

    It died after 3 years just before the winter. To replace the motor it's almost as expensive as buying a new combo. As usual with Intex quality is very poor.

    Disfunctional and unable to return!

    Disfunctional and unable to return! I was a couple days past the 30 day return policy (I thought it was 90 days) and they would not let me have any exception to return. The product is completely disfunctional so I am extremely disappointed that I cannot have my money back or exchange. I call support and they said I should rebuy and return the disfunctional one in the new box as a "workaround". Seems odd that Target support suggested that.

    2 years and it's failing?

    Got 2 years use and now the pump shuts off and resets every 10 seconds. Of course this happens a couple months after my warranty is up. What a rip off. I kept it stored in my climate controlled garage during winter. Never really over used it with free pump mode or boost mode. And still just get 2 years. Some terrible manufacturing just to rip off customers and get more money.

    Bait and switch

    The item is not matched with the detail description and highlights total different item numbers. Picture shows one thing detail description show another. Bait and switch game. Shame on you target. Now I got to take time to take it back.

    Terrible product, do not buy! Run the other way!!!

    Bought the sand filter and saltwater system 14 months ago and used for 4 months when the electrode failed. Conveniently, this single part only has a 1 year warranty, and is 2/3 the cost of the whole system. Certainly will be the last piece of Intex equipment I buy. If you’re thinking about an Intex saltwater system, don’t. Run the other way!
    1 reply from Intex Consumer Service team - 1 year ago
    We're sorry to hear about your experience. The titanium electrode is covered under a 1-year warranty. We understand your frustration and appreciate your feedback.

    Only lasts one year

    Quality is terrible. I've had to replace the control module/motor twice after one year each. the motor works fine, but the module that controls the salt processing fails far too quickly. My pump is in a pump house and out of the weather, but that doesn't seem to matter. When it works -its great, but doesn't last

    Horse power is wrong. Very strong!

    It is actually75hp very strong,using it on a summer wave 22x52 and does great. A little pricey for intex but will see how long it last. It as a 2 yr warranty I haven't had the best luck on intex products.

    Great until it dies

    Great product that we used for few months last year. We started it up this year and everything seemed to be fine until the first storm (the filter was off at that time). Even though the filter is under the roofed area, the water has made its way to the pump and after drying it for three days in a row it started but the display is gone. Intex crew is not responding to my inquires. Moral of the story - keep your filter covered and out elements, because it is not sealed.
