The water flows through the pump to the filter, which removes dirt, debris, and (if the filter is good) bacteria. After the water is filtered, it flows through the plumbing to the heater (if you have one) and then the salt chlorine generator (if you have a saltwater pool).
The water is drawn into the pump from the main drain and skimmers. The pool pump generates pressure, circulating water through the pool filter, heater or heat pump, chlorinators or other pieces of equipment, and then filtered water is returned back to the pool.

It`s advisable to plug a pool pump into a receptacle with a dedicated outlet. Such a setup allows you to run an above-ground pool pump without compromising the electricity supply to other sections of your home. Since the extension cord will run outside, you need to hook it up to a ground fault-protected receptacle.

Only while the pool pump is active and circulating water can the filter effectively remove dirt. Therefore, you should ideally run your pool pump for as long as possible to ensure your swimming pool stays clean throughout periods of use.

I have a krystal clear 635T filter pump that we got last year with an easy-set above ground pool. We just set the pool up for this year and are having trouble with keeping the filter under the water. When submerged it works for a few minutes then the basket comes out of the skimmer and the skimmer rises out of the water. How can I fix this?
ANSWER : Hi,There is still air in the hose…..get all of the air out by holding it under the water completely or by filling the hose with a garden hose…heatman101

Hello,
I am renting a home in NJ, and would like to open our pool. I am not very savvy when it comes to inground pools… i tried to figure out how to turn my Hayward S244T Hi Rate Sand Filter on, and get it going. While i did manage to get water pumping into the pool, it was not filtering out.

Can you please explain to me what i am suppose to do, and how to do it. I have an owners manual, but i find it very hard to follow, and everything is already installed, i am just having problems filtering it out.
Thanks!

Intex pool not compatible with Polaris vac-sweep cleaner
ANSWER : Polaris should have an adapter to make it fit, I’m surprised you didn’t get one, usually an adapter is put in a box to make it work with multiple pools, you can call them and order one or go to a local hardware store or Menards and make your own. They will have PVC fitting adapters. You should be able to find one that will work which you may need to permanently attach it on the one end and custom fit it, but if you have basic skills, then you shouldn’t have a problem with getting it to work. Let me know how this turns out.Benjamin

Saltwater filter system on an INTEX swimming pool.
After putting fresh well water in pool, (5,060 gallons) I put in 120 lbs. of swimming pool salt. I ran the filter for 24 hours then fired up the saltwater chlorinator. After an hour the water went from totally clear to clear but now quite green. Now what? There is still about 1 hour to go on the recommended 5 hour cycle. It’s not clearing up.

ANSWER : Are the require hours properly set as required.In some cases it takes much time in clearing/cleaning the dirt from water.
Set the operating hours using the up arrow button to increase the hours of operation and the down arrow button to decrease the hours of operation. Hours of operation are determined by the amount of water in gallons for the pool size.Re-lock the keypad by pressing and holding the down arrow button for 2 seconds until a long beep is heard, then pressing and holding the up arrow button for another 2 seconds until a second long beep is heard. The green LED light will light up within minutes indicating the system is operating.
It is possible to run the system for a longer period of time than is necessary. However, because chlorine dissipates over time (which is why pool owners must constantly go to the store, constantly purchase, and continually add standard chlorine to their pools), if you happen to run your Saltwater Pool System too long, you can simply begin running it for a shorter period the next day, and your pool will be fine. The best way to determine the optimal length of time to operate your system is to experiment with different operating lengths of time, and to test the amount of chlorine in your pool using the chlorine test strips provided by Intex. See Owner’s Manual for operating time table list. If you have one available.
How long does it take for the Saltwater Pool System to clear the “green” water from my pool? The Intex Saltwater Pool Systems work very quickly, and will immediately begin eliminating bacteria and algae from pool water. However, the exact amount of time needed to transform dirty, dangerous pool water to safe, clean, clear, fresh pool water will depend on a number of factors including how dirty the pool water is to start with, the size of the pool, and the temperature of the outside air.
Will the Saltwater Pool System work even if I use well water? What if I have hard water? Yes, the Saltwater Pool System will work in all water conditions. However, you may find it desirable to treat your water (just as you would if it was being used in your house), if it is hard or has high levels of calcium, etc. Calcium can form white scale on the titanium plates in the electrolytic cell, thus requiring more frequent cleaning. Other than more frequent cleaning, it will not affect the ability of your Saltwater Pool System to perform its functions.

I have a 1996 yamaha wave venture 1100….ran greatsat for 2 yrs..started but only ran for spray into carbs….drained fuel started and ran good. Started about month later and would only run as long as primed with starter fluids…checked fuel filter(ok)…fuel flow to fuel pump ok…output of fuel pump appears ok….but engine will only run as long as starter fluid/gas is sprayed into carbs. I don’t think it’s the carbs as it ran great a month ago…now it’s starving for gas flow….so it appears to be a fuel delivery problem…what would be the sequence of tests up to tearing into the carbs? is there a fuel filter inside the carbs? remember it fires off great when primed…until the fuel spray is consumed…
ANSWER : Check the on/off/reserve valve

18′ x 48″ intex pool. Upgraded to 2500GPH filter and salt system. Water is GREEN. Salt level was too high. So I drained 1/3 of pool. added fresh and changed filter. Added a little fresh salt back. Levels should be good. Ran chlorinator for 11 hours – still green – help please!
ANSWER : Hi,A problem salt-system pool owners encounter is that the pH rises over
time. If the pH is over about 8.3, then your chlorine is rendered
partially ineffective, meaning you can have a high free-chlorine
reading, but it is restricted. Test the pH and add muriatic acid to
maintain your pH is between 7.4 and 7.6.Let me know,if needed further assistance.Hope i helped you.Thanks for using ‘ Fixya ‘ and have a nice day!!
