Upgrade your pool filtration system with the new Jandy SFSM140 37-Inch Side-Mount Pool Sand Filter for better water clarity. Are you looking for a sand filter that is easy to install, more efficient, and that also replaces or works with most existing sand filters? Then the SFSM140 37" Sand Filter has you covered and provides improvements from previous Jandy models.
What does the Jandy SFSM140 37" Side-Mount Pool Sand Filter Do?
The SFSM140 side-mount sand filter is designed to install and fit with older residential sand filter plumbing set ups used to sit. Additionally, this filter comes with industry-standard internal plumbing and connections, making swaps or upgrades even easier.
The newly designed lid is easy to handle and open, and it also distributes pressure more evenly than previous model lids. Furthermore, the internal laterals and diffuser are designed to provide more water flow without the pressure dropping to much.
*The unions are sold separately. *

Four sizes, including one for 36-inch doors

The line is built for backyard pools, big or small.

A combination water and sand drain handles maintenance. The pressure gauge carries a clean/dirty indicator, so you know when the filter needs cleaning, and cleaning only when needed saves water.

FAQ
Our expert staff answers customer's most asked questions.
Will the Jandy SFSM140 fit through a 36-inch doorway?
Jandy names the 35½-inch SFSM as the size that fits through a standard 36-inch doorway. The SFSM140 is the 37.5-inch tank, so measure the door first if the pad is indoors.
What connections does the Jandy SFSM140 use?
The union version takes two 2 x 2½-inch Jandy unions, which aren't included. The inlet and outlet ports sit 7.5 inches apart, center to center.
How much water can the Jandy SFSM140 turn over?
Jandy rates it at 50,832 gallons in six hours and 67,776 gallons in eight hours. Maximum flow is 141.2 gpm.
Does the Jandy SFSM140 need a separate backwash valve?
Yes. Jandy's manual says SFSM filters require a compatible backwash valve, and the brochure lists three kit options: the 2-in-1, slide and multi-port valves.
What is the difference between the Jandy SFSM140 and the SFSM140F?
The SFSM140 in this listing connects with unions. The SFSM140F is the flange version, which uses 3-inch ANSI-150 flange connections that aren't included.
