from the Dad who never reads instructions this is my secret go-to site. The wifey says, "how do you know all this stuff?" Your vids are the best ever. T'anks !!
Haha! That's awesome
Thank you for all your videos, I watched nearly all of them at least once the past 2 weeks while setting up my pool and that same filter pump and the videos were super valuable
I'm so glad we looked at this video. The instructions that came with the pool were impossible! We watched this and the whole pool assembly video. God bless you good sir ❤ 😅
Just finished setting mine up today! Thanks Dad!
Thanks! This was a great and SHORT video! My own dad set up our Intex sand filter last year but now I'm setting it back up after winter.
Just set this up and this video was my guiding light! THANK YOU!!
Your instructions were on point ❤thank you so much
Thank you so much for this!❤
Thank you for the demonstration, awesome 😊
Man I’m so intimidated by the pool. 🙃 this vid really helped. I feel like it’s so sensitive and one mistake will ruin everything 💰 🚽
Thanks for the video. It really helped.
Thank you for helping me.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video!!! I got the saltwater/pump combo to go w/our new Intex pool (instead of using the reg chlorine pump/filter) and since we're new to this I've had a heck of a time trying to find out if it's hooked up correctly & also how to turn everything on for the 1st time....this is the FIRST video I've found that explains EVERYTHING!!🤩 Now if I can get the storms/ torrential rain to stop for a bit maybe I can get it going. Thanks again!🤩
Thank you so much... great video.
Thanks for the video.
Thank you for the helpful video, as was able to complete setup. As I have installed to my new inground pool ( 13ft x 10ft x 4ft ), I have noticed in the week completed that the water is not drawing into skimmer box very strong ( minimal ),could this be caused by air getting into filter ?
Hi - does this require a special outdoor outlet to plug in or will your standard outlet work? Thanks
Summers ending would the solar cover help to keep water warm or would do anything for warmth?
Can you use an extension cord to to power the filter?
Funktioniert hier sehr gut mit einem 366x83 Intexpool. Habe nur eine Matte angeschlossen.Matte läuft getrennt über eine kleine Intexpumpe - weniger Druck ist hier besser.
I did everything as you said and hooked mine up to a stock tank pool but am getting low pressure when i run the filter mode. The pressure is perfect on the recirculation mode but the filter mode runs fine for a few, then sounds like it stops sucking and it seems like there's air in the system. I redid all of your steps to try and get air out and nothing. I even took the cap off to make sure the O ring was seated properly. Any idea?
Anything more detailed on setting up to heat the water in this pool?
New pump this year? Anything wrong with the one from Flow clear, last year?
How do you maintain it ? When the sand is full of dirts ? I used drained and backwashed options but the pump still has low flow
Hi... Can this pump work with an outdoor jacuzzi? Will the jets have power?
With this pool compared to the bestway. Is hooking up the heat pad pointless?
Hello, I need help, for the first time, I use my pool with the filter and after 5 hours in the filter, I turn it off, the valve is stuck, it won't let me put it in any of the options, what can I do?
Where did you buy the o ring and what size ? Just bought the wrong size.
Are you going to do a pool maintenance video for the Intex like you did last year for the Bestway? Loves the videos! Also did you consider getting the skimmer addon?
So what's the difference between backwash and waste?
Where do you put the chlorine tablets?
The filter is taking in water from the pool to the filter but it is not pumping it back into the pool from the filter. All the hose valves are open. Help
I'm having trouble putting the clamp on, the screw doesn't reach to tighten it down.
If it's new do you have to put in N?
Can you leave a rinse hose attached or do uou have to cap it. Thank you. Very helpful
Yes you can leave the waste water line hook up all the time.
Yes
What size are the in and outlets ?? I've got the same filter
thank you , you really helped me set my pool up, but my pump keeps shutting off, any idea whats going on.
Shuts off immediately? The circuit breaker tripping? Or it shuts off after a few hours, maybe the timer?
Just realized i need to fill my pool up more till it covers the jet? Guess ima do that tomorrow
I bought this pump. But the hose isn’t fitting to my intex pool. Is there an adapter kit you have to buy? My pool hoses and pump that came with the pool are smaller
The pool and pump kit that came with mine fit together. Nothing extra I had to buy, except for the sand
You should ALWAYS turn your pump handle clockwise direction only, not back and forth...
True ! Thank you
thanks,
I've always wondered why the darn thing doesn't say that anywhere on it. Like cut some people some slack, pool pump companies. I inherited my pool pump when I bought my house. There were no instruction manuals for it. How was I supposed to just know that you should only turn it clockwise? I mean, if I hadn't gotten a pool dude to teach me the ropes before I broke it.
Thanks for that info.
He did turn it off then turn it though didn’t he? I wouldn’t do it with it on 🙏🏼
Can I know more about the product.and hm
Question from a new pool owner. Do I still need to use chlorine tablets or is the sand filter enough to maintain the cleanliness of the pool? My pool is just under 8000 gallons.
Still need chlorine.
My discharge and suctions are 1.25 can i just use the thread adapters to use this on my intex? I dont want to have to cut an entire new hole for the discharge hose to use the jet with the plunger
I have the same question !
@eldressemo I ended up using the same 1.25 holes with the 1.5 hoses seems to work just fine and I have the 14 inch filter on a 1500 gallons pool. Ots an overkill but my pool crystal clear
Hey man what adapters do I need I have just the basic little baby hoses the pool comes with and now these two white giant hose don’t fit into anything please help
INTEX 1.25" to 1.5" Type B Hose Adapters
Is this for a salt water ?
Is it necessary to install the outlet hose to the pool or can just put from the top? Because i dont wanna fill the pool that deep
I’m not sure if the pump will be strong enough to pull it from low
@@dalesbackyardofficial yea tried it already and didnt work Thanks anyway
Is there a link so i can buy it??
I set everything up and now I’m getting low pressure. I also have it hooked up to a salt generator but due to my low flow issue.
Update. Its been two weeks and I’m still getting this issue from time to time. I’ve already changed the sand and I keep having to back wash. All connections have been checked. Even bought pool socks to help collect debris. But still getting this issue
Also how often should I backwash and rinse the filter?
Once a week seems to work for me. You can more or less depending on the pool usage and debris
Are there any adapters that will allow me to connect this to my Coleman pool? The outlet and inlet openings are much smaller on my pool. Mine are like 1 inch and the intex pump is 2 inch.
This is the problem I’m having rn
I'm sure you can rig something up. I have an intex that came with the 1.25 hose filter
Amazon has some 1.25”-1.5” adaptors. Works great
@@kylepenman3374 used the adapter but ended up cutting the hole to 1.5
@@yezkaholicany tips for cutting? Just a small slice and push it through?
Can you use filtra balls and about how many pounds of filtra balls? We got this exact filter today but no sand and everyone seems to be using these filtra balls.
I was wondering the same. As well as using an Intex filter for a bestway pool
@@jessicahunsicker752 I think the intex filter is really good, we have been using it for 3 weeks now and been using the filtra balls. So far, no problems. I do change them out every week and a half. My water is clear, no green stuff, and it catches a lot of stuff I wouldn't think it could like hair, flies, and ants. The only pain is the washing of the filtra balls. Thank goodness we will just have the pool up for 3 months.
@@fabiolaarauz4439 thank you I'm going to order this pump with the filtra balls!
Does the leave filter come with the standard setup or is that an extra purchase?
Sorry leaf filter
Yes, if you’re referring to the plastic filter before the pump. Comes with everything I show in the video
Do you move valves to closed when filter is done running?
No. Leave open all the time, unless you're taking a hose off for some reason
Quick question on the sand filter pump the N position on the pump what is it used for??
Neutral… doesnt do anything
Hello I have the same sand pump but everytime I go too filter my pool. Hit the power button and the flow nice and fast but after filtering for 1 hour the power just slow down like the pump just lose power. Reset this over and over again had a new control valve sent too me from the company and it stills does the same thing..power off and than back on the water flow nice and fast out the system on filter but like an hour into filtering it just loses power..My question too you is that normal?????
@@kyledewar2117 are you still available too ask answers questions about this sand filter pump system?????
@@demetriuswright3533 i had to backwash the system once a day for a few days during the startup, now it will run with good pressure for about 6 hours before the flow starts to diminish
@@kyledewar2117 thank you for the quick response..I will try that and see how it will do because this was driving me crazy 🤪 Have a blessed day and thanks again....
Our sandfilter is leaking at the drain, anybody knows why?
Help i did all the steps but im getting low pressure when i turn it to filter not sure but i might be udeing the wrong filter sand
I’ve got the same problem
I'm having the same problem, did you ever find a fix? @joev67ify
Does this pump work with most above ground pools?
yes. if you look at the pump description, it tells you the gallons it is rated for
Our pump is 3yrs. Everything is ready to go , pump is plugged in but won't turn on. Help!
Never mind. Got it! Glad to have found this site, though,😊
Does the filter automatically runs every 5 hours or do I need to turn it on every time?
It will run automatically
Also, every how often should I chance the sand? I think you should do a follow up video with that info 😅! I used all ur videos to set up my pool 😊
Is 5 hrs enough??? I have mine running for at least 12 hrs a day.
It depends on the amount of use, if you cover it, how warm it is. All thinks that can determine how much filter needs to run
Anyone know why im getting sand when i set it to rinse? Also its very low pressure if any when filtering. Pump is brand new and sand is new . Help pmease
My 2 thoughts are, did you use the correct grit sand? And, maybe you added too much sand?
@@dalesbackyardofficial Im.not sure what grit sand it didn't say on the bags, only added what was required between min and max . Thanks for the reply maybe it was the wrong kinda sand
How do we know what size to get?
The box should say, it depends on how many gallons your pool is
Isn,t dangerous with that Electric cable in combination with water
It has a GIF on it but yes, do not let the water flow over the plug obviously 😂😂😂😂
Thanks forgot how to get to FP
can we sponsor you a pool vacuum?
You can email me at dale@jeepsolid.com
