Review: Impressed - powerful inlet jet, compatible with Polygroup SummerWaves (after fiddling) - I had purchased a BestWay filter pump last year, knowing there was a risk of it failing the following season based on reviews and it proved true. I was eager not to waste money this time and, although it cost nearly double the price, this Intex filter pump came with a 2 year warranty and I opted to pay for an additional year to avoid the same frustration! So far very impressed - the inlet has an aeration adapter giving a slightly bubbly "jakuzi" feel to it and at around 3,000 litres per hour it's superbly powerful. I've used it with a Polygroup SummerWaves pool from B&M. The ends of the hoses have the same 32mm diameter. The hoses in-between the adapters are thicker, but that doesn't really affect compatibility. I've found that the default inlet and outlet adpaters that come with the pump are not compatible with the pool. I ended up using the pool to pump adapter that I already had, and thankfully Intex bundle a smaller adapter with for the pump to pool end and using an extra clamp it helped hold it in place and worked, and therefore allowed to have the aeration valve benefit. I take the output from the filter pump and pass it through a heat pump - this works well. Be sure to follow instructions, eg. to ensure you use the valve to get air bubbles out before switching on. Some of the instructions are not clear. I initially got the two connections on the pump the wrong way round and was wondering why it was struggling, and it turned out it was trying to pull the water backwards through the heat pump! Noise wise it is fine and typical for a filter pump, based on three that I've used over time. Very pleased with the setup and feel hopeful for this lasting longer :-) Review: Pool filter - Great filter, does the job amazingly for the large pool. The only thing i want to warn people its veey expensive on electricity. But other than that its great. Day before waternin a pool looked moogy and had sour taste. The next day water is clear and the taste is back to normal so highly recommended ## Features - Pump flow rate: 3,785L/hr; system flow rate: 2,839L/hr - Filter media cleaning time: every 2 weeks - Hose fittings characteristics: 32mm diameter - One hydro aeration technology inlet fitting included - Suitable for AGPS up to 21.1M^3 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01M1RCD17 | | Best Sellers Rank | 39,349 in Garden ( See Top 100 in Garden ) 17 in Pool & Hot Tub Pumps | | Brand | Intex | | Colour | Grey | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 649 Reviews | | Flow Rate | 2839 Litres Per Hour | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 18.8L x 19.4W x 35.4H centimetres | | Item Type Name | 1000 GPH CARTRIDGE FILTER PUMP (220-240 VOLT) | | Item Weight | 2.92 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Intex Industries( Xiamen) Co., Ltd. | | Material | 24%PVC + 11%ABS + 22%CU + 30%PP + 13%STEEL | | Maximum Lifting Height | 21.1 Metres | | Model Number | 28638BS | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | 28638BS | | Power source | Corded Electric | | Product Style | Single | | Product dimensions | 18.8L x 19.4W x 35.4H centimetres | | Style | Single | | Voltage | 240 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Intex - **Colour:** Grey - **Item weight:** 2.92 Kilograms - **Material:** 24%PVC + 11%ABS + 22%CU + 30%PP + 13%STEEL - **Maximum flow rate:** 2839 Litres Per Hour - **Maximum lifting height:** 21.1 Metres - **Power source:** Corded Electric - **Product dimensions:** 18.8L x 19.4W x 35.4H centimetres - **Style:** Single - **Voltage:** 240 Volts ## Images ![Intex 28638BS 1000 GPH 220-240 V Cartridge Filter Pump - Grey - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Nycj31yoL.jpg) ![Intex 28638BS 1000 GPH 220-240 V Cartridge Filter Pump - Grey - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71McyyRjsOL.jpg) ![Intex 28638BS 1000 GPH 220-240 V Cartridge Filter Pump - Grey - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/516uc0pON-L.jpg) ![Intex 28638BS 1000 GPH 220-240 V Cartridge Filter Pump - Grey - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ttEW0U8pL.jpg) ![Intex 28638BS 1000 GPH 220-240 V Cartridge Filter Pump - Grey - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61UUeFQvYjL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this come with the intake and outlet bits for inside the pool** A: Yes comes complete **Q: How long in a day do u have this on please** A: 4hrs at the moment and in the summer time 6-8 hrs/ day **Q: Does it come with one filter?** A: Yes **Q: has anyone tried it with a paddling pool, ie with no connector in and out of the pool, but instead leaving the in and out pipes "loose" in the pool?** A: I have tried this and it does work. Ensure the outlet pipe (to the pump) has a gauze/net over the end (zip-tied or taped) and this will reduce large debris getting to the filter. Also ensue the outlet pipe doesn’t come out of the water - else you’ll need to re-prime. You will need to prime the pump using the daisy screw on the top to bleed the air out, or if that doesn’t work then pour water down the outlet tube until the tube is full (using the daisy screw), then quickly put the tube in the pool water. The pump (like many) doesn’t like pumping uphill - even if there is a downhill. This pump is powerful. I use it to pump pool Water through 4 x solar mats - and although there is a reduced flow there are no problems. Hope that helps ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impressed - powerful inlet jet, compatible with Polygroup SummerWaves (after fiddling) *by M***. on 6 June 2026* I had purchased a BestWay filter pump last year, knowing there was a risk of it failing the following season based on reviews and it proved true.
