Important Information
All pumps are water-lubricated and should never be operated without water. Running it without water in the strainer pot can cause serious damage to the mechanical seals, resulting in leaks. To repair the damage, the system will need to be taken apart to replace the seals.
All plants must be drained before winter to prevent frost damage. The filters typically have a single drain plug at the base, with a sieve to allow water out while keeping sand in. Most pumps have two plugs – one for the strainer and one for the impeller housing, so make sure to remove both. If you are unsure about how to look after your pool pump and filter system, please don’t hesitate to contact our team.
How They Work Together
Pool filters and pumps work in tandem to keep your water clean and clear. The pump, powered by a motor, drives an internal impeller that propels water from the skimmer and drains through the filtration system. As the water flows through the filter, impurities such as dirt, debris, and other contaminants are trapped, leaving only clean water to be pumped back into the pool through the water inlets. The filtration system typically includes a strainer basket within the system to catch larger debris like leaves, preventing clogs and ensuring smooth operation. This continuous cycle of pumping and filtering is crucial for maintaining the hygiene and clarity of your water. So remember to have a swimming pool pump and filter to keep your swimmers safe.
