Swimtime® designs complete aquatic filtration and circulation systems for municipal pools, waterparks, zoos, aquariums, and large commercial facilities.
Engineered for performance. Built for longevity.
With over 45 years of experience in design and fabrication of sand filter systems, SWIMTIME filters can be found on literally thousands of municipal pools, college natatoriums, YMCA and YWCA pools, military pools, and commercial water parks all over the world.
Custom steel sand filters are a versatile and efficient solution for water filtration needs. Constructed with high-quality steel, these filters are designed to withstand the rigors of continuous use while providing reliable performance. We use a proprietary cured PVC coating. With a range of customizable options, such as flow rate and pressure capabilities, these filters can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of virtually any water filtration system. Custom filters are backed by the same Swimtime commitment to quality as our standard filters.
The Vertical High-Rate Sand Filter is a versatile and efficient water filtration solution designed to remove a wide range of contaminants from water sources. Utilizing a carefully engineered sand-based filtration system, this filter effectively traps sediment, debris, and other impurities, ensuring the delivery of clean, clear water.
The Horizontal High-Rate Sand Filter is a robust and efficient water filtration system designed to remove a wide range of contaminants from water sources with enhanced performance. The filter's horizontal design may allow for a better fit in existing mechanical rooms. The filter's construction utilizes high-quality materials, ensuring durability and long-lasting performance. The sand bed, strategically layered with various grades of media, effectively traps suspended solids, organic matter, and other impurities, delivering clean, clear water.
These filters are available in 20”, 24”, or 30” diameters with flow rates of 44, 65, and 100 gpm, respectively. Units come pre-plumbed, pre-wired, and skid-mounted on a high-density black polyethylene base. Tanks are constructed of pressure-molded high-density thermoplastic with ABS plastic internals. Pump is bronze and includes a bronze hair and lint trap. State phase and voltage required. Filter media is included. Manual systems include a manual multiport valve. Automatic systems are equipped for unattended operation, pre-set to backwash when dirty, with no gauges to watch or valves to turn.

Unlike traditional commercial pools, zoological water systems must balance filtration efficiency with the unique biological needs of the animals that call these exhibits home. Even a brief interruption in water quality can affect animal health, exhibit operations, and the guest experience.
Every municipal swimming pool has the same goal: provide clean, safe water while keeping operations efficient and meeting local health code requirements. But aging infrastructure, increasing maintenance costs, heavy seasonal use, and changing regulations can make that increasingly difficult.
Every component is specified to work together as a cohesive system designed for continuous commercial operation.
