The piece you are referring to should be able to twist to the left or right to help it get out of your way. Once you get it out of the way make sure...

psi

My pool pump psi was at 55, but when I turned the pump off, it dropped to 40. Does it sound like there is something wrong with the gauge? The pump...

Last post

Yeah if the gauge is only reading 40 with everything off then its most likely to gauge. I'm assuming you've cleaned your filter lately. Gauges are...

pool sand

What is the best sand to use in your pool filter? When we bought our pool it looked like play sand. Our pool store recomended their sand, is it just...

Last post

No you need to use sand that is sized correctly and that would be pool sand. Try Home Depot or Lowes for a better price.

multiway valve

by colinthecamel » Thu 27 Mar, 2008 09:37

Hi

Just bought a house with a pool and am trying to fathom out the pump system.

The settings are waste, backwash, rinse, filter, recirculate...

Last post

Rinse after backwashing to keep debris from shooting back into pool. Recirculate simply keeps the water moving without filtering.

Some times the lines have an inline filter that gets clogged. Check to make sure you dont have a dirty filter in the line.

A check valve on the return line to the spa should do the trick, especially if it is real close to the spa itself.
