Swimming pool pumps and filters are vital components for maintaining a clean, safe, and enjoyable swimming environment, as they will filter and circulate your water and keep the water clean and safe for swimming in (with the addition of water treatment chemicals). They work in tandem to circulate water, filter out impurities, and ensure consistent water quality when combined with appropriate water treatment chemicals.
The pool pump and filter work together, so it’s important that they are correctly sized. This is because the pump draws the water out from the pool through pipework and pumps it through the filter onto any other components such as heaters and then back to the pool. The filter's main function is to filter the water, but it also helps to control the flow and will help get rid of any waste water via a multiport valve.
It is always advisable to get the best quality pumps & filters that you can afford - as they will work better, last longer and give you less hassle and the last thing you want is a broken pump in the middle of the summer!

To select the appropriate pump and filter for your pools, start by considering your pool's size, the volume of water, and the specific needs like energy efficiency or quiet operation. Consider the type of filter that best suits your environment—sand filters are low-maintenance but may not filter as finely as cartridge filters, which require regular cleaning. If you’re unsure, our team of experts is available to provide you personalised recommendations.
Running your pool pump for 6–8 hours daily is typically recommended to ensure the entire pool’s water is circulated and filtered at least once every 24 hours. This is crucial for maintaining water clarity and safety, as the pump works to remove debris, contaminants, and microorganisms that can affect water quality. During peak swimming season or in warmer climates, you may need to run the pump longer.
We offer a curated selection of pumps and filters from industry-leading brands such as Pentair Sta-Rite, Hayward, Certikin, Aquaspeed, and Acis. These brands are renowned for their innovative designs, durability, and high performance.
While it is possible to install the system yourself, we recommend professional installation to ensure optimal performance and avoid any potential issues that might appear.
If your pump or filter stops working, the first step is to check the power supply to ensure the equipment is receiving electricity. Inspect the pump and filter for any visible blockages or clogs that could be obstructing water flow. If the pump is running but there’s no water flow, there might be an air leak in the suction line, which would need to be sealed.
If the equipment is still not functioning, contact our technical helpline at 0333 900 40 40.
