Yes, the Del Rey Swimming Pool is compatible for use with sand filter systems, as well as cartridge and D.E. (diatomaceous earth) filter systems.
Sand Filters
Sand Filters use specially graded sand to trap particles and debris. They are effortless to operate and maintain. The filter sand can last 5-10 years between changes giving you a very economical filtration system.
Cartridge Filters
In a Cartridge Filter, pool water passes through a filter that captures the dirt and debris. Cartridge Filters are a great choice for Above Ground Pools. They are low maintenance and economical. They are very simple to clean using a standard garden hose. Backwashing is not necessary with Cartridge Filters, eliminating water and chemical loss.
D.E. Filters
D.E. Filters use a special powder called Diatomaceous Earth. This powder is used to coat the inside of the D.E. filter and trap very fine particles as small as 5 microns. D.E. Filters provide superior water clarity but require more maintenance than Sand or Cartridge Filters.
Please note: The Del Rey pool is not warrantied for saltwater use. Saltwater is very easy to maintain but can be corrosive to some pool components so you would need a pool that is specifically made for it.

The Saltwater 5000, Saltwater 8000, Saltwater LX, Saltwater Titan, Saltwater Aurora and Intrepid are all warrantied for saltwater use. You can find our Saltwater pool models here:
Another great option to use as your sanitizing system (instead of a saltwater system) is the Frog Pool Tender Fresh Mineral Water System. This mineral water system utilizes natural minerals and small amounts of chlorine to sanitize your pool. Like Saltwater, it's very easy maintenance but without the corrosion issues. Also, you can use Frog Pool Tender Fresh Mineral Water System with any pool model. https://www.thepoolfactory.com/frog-p...
