Below you will find a checklist, please check it when the sand filter pump has a high of low pressure. The sand filter pump is not self-priming. It is therefore recommended to install the pump next to the pool below the water surface.

Low/no pressure

  • Both the inlet and outlet of the pool must be completely submerged.
  • There must be no blockages in front of the inlet and outlet.
  • The hoses and the pump must be free of air.
  • There should be no air bubbles in the pump.
  • Make sure the pump has been prepared following manual.

 

 

High pressure

  • The filter medium must be clean.
  • Regularly perform a backwash and rinse according to the manual.

If other devices are connected:

  • Make sure the other products are completely free of air.
  • Keep the distance that the water has to travel as small as possible.
  • Everything must be set up below the water surface level.
