intex pump not working properly

Postby Frank » Sun 05 Sep, 2021 13:21

My intex pump pulls water out of the pool just fine, but is not pumping water back into the pool. The sand is two years old. I just backwashed. Sometimes it will pump for a few minutes - then quits. Then nothing. thank you in advance for any ideas.

Do you have a multiport valve (MPV) if so set to recirculate and see what happens
You say the pump quits, do you mean it stops running
