Just a quick review of the settings available on the Intex Sand Filter, how they operate, and when to use them.

This is our second K-Classic. We had our first one for many years, so when we had to replace it, we wanted nothing else but this exact kzfaq.infoUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf model. We use it for about three people everyday in the morning. The taste and quick brew is one of the reasons we like it so much. There are so many choices of brands of coffee that we would grab what was on sale and test the different brands from there. I would definitely recommend trying different brands of coffee to find the ones you like the most because there are brands that quite frankly taste horrible.

Thank you for the info! My neighbor gave me his pool and pump and I’m trying to figure it out. When I turn on filtration there doesn’t seem to be suction, does it take a certain amount of time for pressure to build? I don’t want to burn the motor experimenting!

@GuidingBoltGaming 4 жыл бұрын

As long as there isn't air in the system already ,it should start up right away with good suction. Assuming you have the same or similar setup as mine. I would make sure you have enough water in the pool to fill the stock skimmer basket before the Intex filter sucks it out. If you aren't getting enough water in the tank attached to the pool the Intex will throttle back when air gets in the system. Then the skimmer tank will fill again, but now there is air in the collection basket that has to be released before it starts full output again.

any chance you can make a video about how you vacuum with your current setup?

@@ESPNEWS8 When on Neutral it flows amazingly. What is the difference between N and Recycle? When i put it on Filter, the flow pressure back into the pool reduces to about half of the 'Neutral' setting. Then after 10 minutes, it reduces further to a trickle of about a 1/4 of the N setting. Too slow to filter the pool and so the Algae is beginning to build. Tomorrow I will check all connections for any partial blockages, but am wondering if I also need to do replace or do anything to the sand or sand container? The pump and sand were new last year and stored dry in October with lid open for 9 months in my garage til this June. I used a leaf-blower to extract out the top dust, (dried bugs, leaf particles etc,) and I didn't shake or disturb the sand in the white barrel. I just carried it to the pool and attached the connections. Did I do anything incorrectly? When would you replace the sand or mix it about? Sorr for so many questions, but I do appreciate any and all positive responses 🙂

The N is neutral, and it is used for long term storage/winterization. It keeps the lines open so the water can flow freely. So if you live in a climate where it freezes it will let the water move and help prevent damaging the filter.

Thank you for the information about this filter and the settings. Is there a specific time frame the recirculation should be on after putting a chlorine tab in there? I have a chlorine bucket swimming around in the pool constantly as well as doing a shock once a week so this was new to me putting the tab in the sieve

I am curious about this also I have not heard of putting the clorine tab in this basket. Why do you do this?
