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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My pool had never been so perfect. This is so effective and easy to use and to give maintenance. The durability so far is great, I’ve been using it for many months. The installation was easy and it was compatible to my pool. Highly recommended!

I like the saltwater chrorine system until electrode failed 13months after purchase. Warranty is 12 months…. New electrode costs more than new pump. Total dissapointment.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Never knew I would love a system more than I do now! This system has saved my pool more than I could count. The water is always fresh and crisp and lovely every time I take a dip! Intex knows what they're doing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very effective at keeping our advice ground pool clean and clear. The chlorine produced by the system is consistently at the right level. There is no strong chlorine smell either. The fact that it's programmable makes it so easy to use. I highly recommend this system.
Just add salt!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great saltwater system! Chlorine will destroy your hair, ruin your bathing suits, gets in your eyes, etc. None of that with a saltwater system! No stinky smell either! It's fairly simple to maintain and it just works. Who doesn't love a clean pool! Intex is a great well known brand.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this Intex Krystal Clear Saltwater System in exchange for my honest review. The instructions and information made it very easy to read and understand. Installing was easy and not to much work. The water stays clearer for a longer time which is great because I don’t have to be cleaning it as often! I love the adjustable timer it has because it will turn on automatically as to when I set it. It is worth every penny & I would definitely be recommending to others with pools!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to set up and clear instructions. I’ve had this setup for a month now and the water is still as clear as the first day I added the water. Hopefully this gets several years of use.
