Tips in Cleaning a Pool Pump
by John Smith Proffesional ManagerOne of the signs of a
malfunctioned pump is green swimming pool water due to dirt accumulation and
thriving algae. A pool pump's primary purpose is to drive water through the
system's filtration unit to ensure that the water is safe and clean for use. It
is important to note that without a pump, a swimming pool cannot function well.
If the pool pump malfunctions, then the swimming pool will not be ideal for any
functions. For this reason, you should maintain and clean your pool pump to
keep it in good condition. Here are a few tips to consider when cleaning your pool pumps Auckland.
Use a Vacuum Hose to Remove Excess Air
Air build-up is a
normal phenomenon in most pumps, especially in the filters and baskets.
However, air bubbles can clog the pump, causing it to malfunction. You can use
a vacuum hose to flush out these air bubbles and unclog the pump, even in the
most intricate parts.
Remove and Clean the Filter Cartridge
Your pump's filter
cartridge is an essential component that needs regular maintenance. It is for
this reason that you should clean it once every 2-3 months of continuous use.
To clean it, begin by removing the clamps while holding the filter before
releasing it. Afterward, inspect it for any damages, and then wash it using a
spray nozzle while focusing on the area between the pleats. Finally, thoroughly
rinse the entire cartridge before carefully returning it to its rightful place.
It would help if you
also considered cleaning the pump's impeller to eliminate any debris, clogs,
and dirt that may be causing the pump to malfunction. Cleaning the impeller is
very easy. You can use a bent wire, a coat hanger, or even your fingers to
remove the debris.
