The Pentair Sand Dollar SD40 is the gold standard for compact sand filtration, offering the perfect balance of efficiency and rugged durability. Designed for both small inground and above-ground pools, this filter features a one-piece thermoplastic tank that is blow-molded for maximum strength and a long, corrosion-free life.

Features
Six-Position Top Mount Valve: The multi-port valve provides easy control over all filter functions: Filter, Backwash, Rinse, Waste, Closed, and Recirculate, simplifying your pool maintenance routine.
One-Piece Thermoplastic Tank: Constructed from UV-stabilized, high-density materials, this tank is built to withstand years of direct sunlight and high-pressure operation without rusting or corroding.
Efficient Lateral Design: Features a high-flow internal lateral system that ensures even water flow through the sand, maximizing dirt-holding capacity and extending the time between backwash cycles.
Specialized Internal Air Relief: Automatically vents air to prevent pressure buildup, while the manual air relief valve and pressure gauge allow for safe, easy monitoring of system health.
Combination Sand & Water Drain: Includes a large-capacity drain plug for rapid winterizing and easy sand replacement, saving you time during seasonal transitions.
Compact High-Performance Filtration: Specifically sized for 1.8 sq. ft. of filtration area, making it an energy-efficient choice for smaller pool volumes that still demand professional-grade clarity.
