| FAQ: |
The vinyl hoses seem to small to slide onto
the hose barbs. |
| Answer: |
Sometimes the hoses are quite stiff. Warm
(do not over heat and melt the hose) the end of the hose with a hair dryer
to make it more pliable. It will slide right on. Then attach the hose
clamp. |
| FAQ:
|
The sand filter is discharging sand back
into my pool. Why is this happening? |
| Answer: |
If this is a new installation it could be
one of the following reasons. |
| |
- Check to be sure you have the hoses properly
connected to the filter valve. One is marked "pump" which is the water
from the pool, the other is marked "pool" which is the return to the
pool.
- The laterals at the bottom of the pipe are not tight.
Be sure you check them to be sure they did not come loose during
shipping before adding the sand.
- When you poured the sand into the filter some went
down the main pipe. Be sure you have installed the sand funnel in the
top of the tank before adding sand.
- It is possible you may have a cracked lateral, this
is very rare on a new system.
|
| FAQ: |
Last season the sand filter worked fine.
This year it is discharging sand into the pool. |
| Answer: |
If the system was not completely drained at
the end of the season the remaining water may have frozen in the laterals
causing them to break. You will need to replace the laterals. |
