You will need the functioning pool filter and the right chemical when you want to maintain clean water in your pool. For this, you consider the Hayward pool pump and filter to keep the water cleans. But, you have to make sure that the pump can work properly. When you face the problems with the device, there are some techniques to troubleshoot it. The followings are some techniques that you can do.
First, you should tighten all the connections of the hose to the pump and the filter. This is done before troubleshooting the Hayward pump or filter that you have. You will find that the dipping hoses might cause the air enters the system. When the air is in the system and the filters operate in a vacuum environment, the malfunction occurs.
Second, you should look the skimmer basket and remove any debris. You might find the debris there. By opening the skimmer lid and pulling out the basket with any debris, you will be able to troubleshoot the problem where if the water enters the pump. After removing the debris, you should run the filter whether this can solve the problem or not.
Third, you should clean the impeller. You will find that this is located in the tube beyond the pump basket. To do it, you must turn the motor off before opening the lid of the pump basket. Then, you should reach the impeller feel any thing that might make this pump part. Then, pull out any debris, leaves or dirt that clogs the impeller. Then, you should replace the lid after you have finished with it.
Fourth, you should backwash or regenerate the Hayward filter. When the Hayward diatomaceous earth (DE) is pumped, it will regenerate the diatomaceous earth that will make the cleaning process better. This is done by repositioning the DE. But, if the filter is a sand filter, you should do a backwash. Make sure that you follow the manufacturer's instructions to ensure that you do the correct things. If you have done with this, you can turn the filter on and find out whether the problem is solved.
Fifth, you should replace the (DE) and clean it. This is done if regenerating the DE cannot solve the problem in your Hayward pump. For this, you should drain it, open the filter up and wash its cartridges or fingers with a garden hose before re assembling the filter. Then, you should add new (DE) through the skimmer if you have finished with the process.
Those are some things you can do to troubleshoot the Hayward pool pump that you have. But, you have to make sure that you do the correct things so that you can use the pump to maintain the cleanliness of the water in your pool.
