Most Ionizers need the pump on to work. You need the water to be passing over the copper nodes to be dispersed in the water. We recommend you run the pump 24/7 during the hot season which would mean your ionizer would also be running 24/7. Hope that helps.
I need a more in depth demonstration. I have to do this all myself. This is my first time replacing the pool liner since 15 years ago when I got the pool.
Yes! Depending on the situation. For example if you have dirt and leaves you can set it to “filter” and that is good. When you flock, you would want to vacuum to waste. Good luck.
help we self installed an agp and a section of steel wall jumped out of bottom rail, only 2 inches of water in and we noticed help what to do to get it back in
I have a Pentair Sand Dollar (SD35) sand filter. Several weeks ago, I had a local change the sand in the filter. Ever since then I have been having the following problems: 1. When I backwash, only clear water comes out of the backwash hose. Normally, when the pressure increases by 10 psi (from 10 to 20 psi), there is filtered stuff from the pool which is washed out of the filter. 2. After backwashing, the psi is 10, however after about 2 hours or so of ‘filtering’ the psi increases to 20. Any idea of what is wrong and how do I fix it? No sand is in the pool itself. Thanks!
@@johnhanselman6371 Thanks for the post John. I finally got one of the large pool companies to come out and take a look at the filter. Unbelievably, the handy man that I hired to change the sand put the laterals on top of the sand rather than at the bottom of the filter. Needless to say, that person is not returning any of my phone or emails. 45 minutes later, after the correct fix, all is well and filtering as normal. This seems like something from the Twilight Zone :( Have a great weekend!
Hey Jamor, you have 2 options. If you have a crap load of debris in the bottom of your pool, or you used floc, vacuum to waste. This bypasses the sand and shoots it strait out, which will lower your water. If it just a regular/weekly vacuum with few leaves and some dirt, I would vacuum to filter. This will save your water. Hope this helps.
My pool is at about 16 inches full. It's going to rain and be cloudy today. Can I still go ahead and continue filling it or do I have to have direct sunlight?
Hello Lori Ann. If the weather is warm you don't have to worry about the stretching (above 70). Now you do still need to double check that there is no leak. If all looks good, you can fill it up! Happy swimming!
@@hydrahottubspools546 Thank you! It’s supposed to be 87 today but rain all day long. I’m happy for the rain to help me with the fill and was hoping I could keep running my hose all day. It’s currently 78 and climbing.
good day i have one question? i have a pool 7,5x4,80 I am interested in the filter how many kilograms of sand and what pump power in advance thanks for the answer
We just had our pool installed this past weekend. It looks like we have the same filter and pump as you. I went to clean the filter basket but all the water flowed everywhere. Did you purchase that valve separate to stop the water from flowing?
Hello Samantha, we include that slice valve on all of the pools we install. Just makes life easier. With out the slice valve, you can put a 1.5" plug in the skimmer, or rag, or bottle, to stop the flow while cleaning out your basket. Happy Swimming!
