Thanks, Mate. Opened my pool just last week here in southern Ontario, and had no suction in the vacuum line for my Kreepy. Checked all connexions, skimmers - all fixed and clear. But I took your advice to backwash if the sand filter has been sitting for months. That did the trick. Saved me at least a hundred buck to call a pool tech and blow the line, like many other of these videos did.

everyone relax - he said 75psi but he probably meant 75kpa (if you look closely you'll see that's the units on the gauge). 75kpa translates to around 11psi. keep calm and carry on.

The backwash really helped! Thanks for the helpful video!

[Hahehhwgajshah..]

Also check the pump lid for cracks.Great video.

Hello, Mundaring. Thanks for a well informed of things to check after. My equipment is an old, faithful Hayward 600s filter. No major issues ever in 20 years of operation. My psi pressure when clean is at 15 and when needing a good clean up, sits at 30psi. Are those numbers okay? Reason I ask is because you mentioned "75" on your vid as a good pressure; for my system 75 would be ready to blow up the filter dome.

[Montery]

and, what would a life be without an old faithful snoozer, huh?

My pool jacuzzi hot tub when activated on ly blows air in the jacuzzis for around 2 minutes and stops. Then just low pressure simmer blow, not the big circulation I'm needing. Any thoughts?

I like to ask you have the opiset isu, look Iike my pump is pumping faster then the pool give and the skimmer is always low even though the level of the pool is normall, any idea?

[jamootoo]

What kind of pump is that? 75psi?! My pump would blow up & probably knock down my cement block wall! The healthiest psi on mine sits at 10! Anything above 25-30 is redlining it! Wow...
