Don’t forget to leave room for other structures and activities in your yard, such as a swing set, shed, garden, or outdoor grill.

There are three types of pool filters—cartridge, sand, and D.E. (diatomaceous earth). Cartridge and sand filters are the most popular types and are affordable and easy to maintain. D.E. filters are more expensive and require more maintenance, but they are also very good at filtering out small particles.
