Pool store personnel say the solar panel systems won’t work because the Intex pool filters won’t push enough water thru the system.

The pool store guy is right. Those intex pumps are junk. Look for a used 1Hp pump or buy one from Harbor Freight.

You can unplug the Intex pump and use the new pump to push the water through the Intex filter. That is how I did mine. I have to clean the filter more often because the increased water flow.

Someday I will just buy a sand filter and have a really clean pool.
