Hayward versus Waterco?

[kaydee]

Hi

Can anyone tell me the pros and cons of Hayward versus Waterco? We ordered a 30' above-ground pool and the Hayward cartridge filter and pump we ordered is still not in. They are telling us they have the Waterco cartridge filter and pump on hand and that it is easier to get replacement parts, etc. for the Waterco versus the Hayward. Should we wait for the Hayward or go with the Waterco?

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Thanks in advance.

Personally, I'd tell them to go with a sand filter and forget the cartridge. Less hassle.
