Here are the different models currently available the plumbing union size and sand capacity: 
88012526 MFV17  1.5”   90    lbs of sand
88012527 MFV20  1.5”  150   lbs of sand
88012528 MFV24         1.5”   275  lbs of sand
88012545 MFV24B 2.0”  275   lbs of sand
88012529 MFV27A 1.5”    400 lbs of sand
88012530 MFV27         2.0”    400 lbs of sand
88012531 MFV31A 1.5”   700  lbs of sand
88012532 MFV31         2.0”   700 lbs of sand
88012533 MFV35     2.0”   950  lbs of sand

I think the best feature is the easy access to the sand and the laterals inside. You don’t need any tools to remove the clamp holding the Multi-port on. It is a very simple and easy process to add the sand, change the sand or fix a broken lateral. It makes sense to make this easy access since sand changes or repairing broken laterals is something that is common with sand filters. 

The multi-port valve on top also moves very freely and again, there is no reason to make it stiff and hard to turn. It also features a very large handle making turning It even easier. Emzux designed the filter to be as user friendly as possible.

Can I Use Clorox Bleach in my Pool?

Image
Regular Unscented Bleach I started doing pool service when I was 16 years old back in 1988. I took a break from the industry and did some Real Estate Investing and ran a small business for awhile. But I always loved working outdoors and so I decided to do pool service again. So I have about 15 years of practical experience in the field. My specialty has always been water chemistry as I was formally trained by an experts in the field. So I am well versed in most of the chemicals that are on the market today and I have used and tested a lot of different products. So when you hear those in the industry discourage and even slander anyone who uses bleach in their pool, you may think that it is not a product that you should use. In fact as you read this article you will find that using bleach and only bleach is a safe and smart choice. There is a lot of ignorance surrounding household bleach and the use of bleach in a swimming pool. Here is a video I made that goes in more detail on usin

Mr. Pen Non-contact Voltage Meter - Don't Get Electrocuted!

Image
One of the biggest issues you will run into with anything connected to an AC power is if that device or equipment is receiving power. In the pool service industry, this often is the case when you find that a pool pump won’t turn on. Or if a pool timer doesn't on, is it receiving power? Also for repairs with so many breakers being unmarked, how do you know you turned off the right breaker. Bottom line, a non-contact detector like the Mr. Pen is an easy way to see if power is going to the equipment/device and the line is active. A non-contact voltage detector is just that. You don’t need to make contact with the line like with a Multimeter. Plus you don’t need to adjust any settings or knobs to get a voltage reading. Simply hold the Mr. Pen over a cord or wire whip and if there is AC power a red light will turn on and an audible beep will come out of the device. A very easy way to tell if power or a current is present.  To order: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092LFYTG5?&_encoding=UT
