You saved me! I was getting anxiety thinking I was going to need to buy a $1200 automatic vacuum because I didn’t know manual was an option or how to even do it. This is easy. I’m going to get these supplies today. Thank you 😊

Thank you ! Now i am wonderinh why my pool guy drains some water out to vacuum

@jadenslipski 21 күн бұрын

The water level needs to be about an inch or so below the skimmer

@user-kx1rm9gs9m Жыл бұрын

when your about to clean pool do you turn the pump off to shut off main drain or can it stay on while shuting off drain?

@Poolelementary Жыл бұрын

As long as your sure you have a valve that only shuts off the drain your good to shut it with the pump running this should instantly double your suction on the skimmer.

Hey I have a question I thought you were supposed to keep the filter on backwash while vacuuming?

@Poolelementary 9 күн бұрын

Definitely do not vacuum while filter is on backwash. In backwash the water is running backwards through the filter and will plug your filters laterals which are the screens that keep the sand or glass in the filter

@jimuelleleoapan9333 4 ай бұрын

If i set my multiport at filter do i need to open, return or not? If i set multiport at waste what do i need to open? Because when i did filtration all the dirt that suck by vacuum, its all coming back to the return haha.

@joseph181516 8 күн бұрын

Where does the water the vacuuum suck goes? Is it a cycle that goes back to the pool?

@Poolelementary 8 күн бұрын

Depends on what you have your filter set to and what kind of filter your pool has.

@joseph181516 8 күн бұрын

As far as I understand the water goes from the vacuum to the filter and then from the filter to the pool again and then when we finished vacuuming we have to clean the filter letting out that water to the drainage. Is this correct? This is a really helpful video! Thanks

@Poolelementary 8 күн бұрын

Correct

I was told by my local pool supply co the skimmer plate is only intended to be used with a certain brand of filtration system. I need to vacuum heavy debris (pine needles) and originally thought this would be the solution so the skimmer basket would catch the debris. Is this wrong info?

@Poolelementary 7 ай бұрын

Skimmer vacuum plates that fit over your skimmer basket is the solution. You don't want all those pine needles plugging up your lines. You should be able to find one that will fit your skimmer. If not they make leave style Vacuums that have a bag attached to the that you hook up to a garden hose and it pushes the debris up into the bag.

Hey do you put your pump on waste or backwash?

@Poolelementary Жыл бұрын

You can either vacuum to waste or on filter setting. Remember if you vacuum to waste your going to lose alot of water so I normally vacuum on filter then backwash when done if needed.

What do I do if the vacuum hose keeps disconnecting from the vacuum

@Poolelementary Жыл бұрын

I usually will just tighten a hose clamp down on it and it will not fall off any more.

Some pools have valves in the pump house so you can turn one of the skimmers off.

If you place the hose over a skimmer basket to suck water from underneath the basket how in the world will debris collect in that skimmer basket???

Any reason why not to vacuum to waste instead of using filter and backwashing? Im opening a pool using a vacuum for the first time and am thinking that's the best way right?

@Poolelementary 21 күн бұрын

Vacuuming to Waste does use quite a bit of water but is one of the best ways to remove dead algae and the smallest debris from your pool. Running the vacuum through the filter will save you water but you will have to vacuum multiple times to get the filter to take it out.

@blackhouse7646 Жыл бұрын

Should the filter be cleaned before doing this?

@Poolelementary Жыл бұрын

This totally depends on how dirty the pool is but if your pressure is up 3-4 lbs from the clean filter pressure and your pool is pretty dirty then yes I would clean the filter before vacuuming so you have adequate suction to your vacuum. If your just doing some spot clean up like just the corners or some debris that settled just in the deep end or something your probably good to just vacuum and clean the filter afterwards. I never like my pressure on my filter to be over 8lbs from the starting pressure of a clean filter.

@criiispe3048 Ай бұрын

Wanted to see how you put your hose away…

@donwarnick1089 8 ай бұрын

At 3:34 you’re losing me about the pressure when exactly am I checking that gauge before I do anything or after I turn off the main drain or after backwashing. Sorry I’m such a rookie with a new home and in ground pool and know nothing about it. Maybe go into a bit more detail about the gauge and back washing before or after vacuuming. What do I do if it’s up over 10 so many questions. Thanks

@Poolelementary 8 ай бұрын

Hello Don, all you need to know is your clean filter starting pressure, which can be found by backwashing and cleaning the filter. Backwashing for a couple minutes should do the job. After that you will have your starting filter pressure and then just repeat the backwashing procedure everytime the pressure is up by 8-10 pounds.
