Spare parts for sand filters

Having clean running water in your swimming pool is an essential part of enjoying it, so repairing and maintaining the filter is important. Whether you’ve bought your pool from us at UK Pool Store or if your filter brand is listed on our spare parts page, you’ll be able to repair and replace the sand filter when you need it.

Some of the most common spare parts that can be replaced on sand filters are:

• Sand – The first and most obvious one is to replace the sand in a sand filter. This is the part that traps dirt and debris from the pool water. The sand should be replaced every 7-10 years.
• Gaskets – The gaskets in a sand filter seal the filter and prevent water leaks. The gaskets should be replaced if they become damaged or worn.
• Pressure gauge – Pressure gauges are the part you’ll need to check regularly as they help you read the pressure going through the filter and let you spot issues.
• Valves – The valves in a sand filter control the flow of water through the filter. The valves should be replaced if they become damaged or worn.
• Filter head – The filter head is the part of the sand filter that holds the sand and the valves. The filter head should be replaced if it becomes damaged or worn.

If you need to replace a spare part for your sand filter, it’s important to use a part that is compatible with your specific filter.
