How Do You Replace A Swimming Pool Pump?
A pool pump is an essential part of a swimming pool. The pool pump is responsible for keeping the water moving, filtering it through the filter, keeping it clean and balanced. Pool pumps sometimes need to be replaced if the motor goes bad or if the pump has a leak that cannot be fixed. Replacing the pool pump and installing a new one is a task that requires a few minutes and ensures clear, beautiful swimming water. Unplug the current pool pump. Close the water valves on the pool skimmer and the pool filter. Unhook the current pool pump by unscrewing the hose clamp on the intake pool hose that connects the pool skimmer to the pool pump. Disconnect the pool pump from the pool filter by unscrewing the hose clamp that holds the hose onto the pool pump. Your system may have a union that connects the pump to the filter. If so, use a wrench to unscrew the unit in order to disconnect the pump. Discard the old pool pump. Be sure to follow your counties regulations with discarding machinery. Ins
