When the pressure gauge climbs, the element comes out, gets rinsed or replaced, and goes back in. That also means no water dumped to waste every time the filter needs attention, which matters on an above ground pool where the volume is smaller to begin with.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe 150 square foot size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCartridge area is what determines how long the filter runs between cleanings. At 150 square feet this is on the large side for above ground use, so it loads up slowly and the pump spends more of its life working against low pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is in the box\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlong with the filter and the pump you get the cartridge filter element, a 1.5 inch FPT hose pack made up of two 6 foot lengths, and the platform base the system sits on. It is a complete package rather than a filter you then have to source parts around.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48626214502612,"sku":"HAY-05-833","price":1079.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_5a162278-34bd-4bec-8c35-4df236b2443c.jpg?v=1788706332","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/above-ground-filter-system-150sqft-xstream-with-1-5hp-power-flo-matrix","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
