Engineered for reliability and effortless maintenance, the Pentair Sand Dollar SD60 Top-Mount Sand Filter delivers clean, clear water for above-ground and smaller inground pools. With a 22" diameter tank and about 2.3 square feet of filtration area, it combines a compact footprint with powerful filtration to keep your pool in peak condition.

Key benefits include corrosion-proof one-piece thermoplastic tank, a six-position top-mount multiport valve for easy operation, and a smart internal design that maintains the sand bed level for consistent filtration and longer cycle times. The result is high performance with minimal maintenance and long service life, even in demanding environments.

  • 2.3 sq ft filtration area supporting flow rates up to ~60 GPM for quality water turnover.
  • 22" diameter tank with a compact footprint that fits most equipment pads.
  • One-piece thermoplastic tank provides excellent corrosion resistance and long service life.
  • Top-mount six-position multiport valve for Filter, Backwash, Rinse, Recirculate, Drain, Closed.
  • Combination water & sand drain simplifies winterizing and servicing.
  • Sand bed level design maintains uniform filtration media for consistent performance and extended cycles.

Durability, Ease of Use, and Saltwater Ready

Built to withstand harsh pool environments, the SD60’s thermoplastic tank resists corrosion and is suitable for saltwater pools when maintained properly. The six-position valve and straightforward backwashing pattern keep routine maintenance quick and predictable, while the compact design helps you optimize your equipment pad layout.

  • Requires approximately 250 lbs of #20 silica sand (sold separately).
  • Fits plumbing compatible with a 22" top-mount sand filter and 1½" multiport valve connections.
  • Minimal tank maintenance: routine backwashing, monitor pressure, and replace sand every 3–5 years; check valves and O-rings periodically.
