Safe winter storage requires more than a cool shelf. Learn how to read each product label, separate incompatible pool chemicals, control moisture and temperature, secure the area, and recognize a container that should not be moved or opened.
A matching number on the pump and pipe does not guarantee a drop-in replacement. Learn how to check nominal pipe size, slip sockets, threads, unions, alignment, and hydraulic capacity before ordering a pool pump.
A pool pump usually loses prime because it is short of water, drawing air through the suction side, or unable to move water through a restriction. Use the symptoms in the pump basket, return jets, and filter pressure gauge to narrow the cause before replacing the pump.
A 230V pool pump usually draws less current than a comparable 115V pump, but it does not automatically use half the electricity. Learn how to match pump voltage to the circuit, compare installation requirements, and calculate the real running cost.
Learn how to winterize an above-ground pool pump, hoses, skimmer, return, and filter without trapping water that can freeze and crack equipment.
Not sure what size pool pump you need? Learn how to calculate pool volume and GPM, estimate TDH, compare HP, and choose 115V, 230V, or variable speed.
