We have a Splash superpool that's 13x25 (~10K gallons), and the Hayward 1hp pump and cartridge filter need to be replaced. I have a Pentair Maxim Predator II filter/pump that I'm using temporarily until we get this figured out. I'm wondering if I can use the pump from the Pentair Maxim (3/4 hp) and just buy a new filter. The Pentair pump does not have a pump basket before the cartridge- can one be added? If so, how?

Also, any recommendations of a filter? Guy at pool store wanted to sell me a Doughboy sand filter. If it makes a difference, the pool will only be up for 4 months/yr, then taken down and stored.

Thanks for the help.
