If you remove the pump and take it apart, you probably find the plastic impeller shaft has broken in multiple places. Use a #10 Finishing Nail to gently drive the broken bits of the shaft out of the impeller. Use a long pair of tweezers to remove the bottom piece of the shaft that might be...

Mine has a 1 inch diameter clear h/d vinyl hose about four inches long. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Well, there is no graphic designs within, just a fill high line and a minimum line....which just with this in progress project of mine is actually a gift of sorts because my wife's mother gave this to us with a supposedly broken pump because she wanted to replace this with a new one that worked...

By the way, my Intex pool is out back, the other one that is in the basement looks like a small version of what your doing. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

A electrical pad under the pool as in a tile floor or thinking out of the box (again) I was leaning towards the whole floor in our one car garage would be knocked down two inches to inlay driveway melt system that is connected to a natural gas boiler, the driveway would be one zone, the other...

Um, is to late in the project to drain the pool (Grin and wink) and jack hammer the floor to install a diy solar heater on the roof to heat the cement pad and the pool.....sorry my mind has tossed the same idea in my own garage because of medical issue that have me in a heated pool or warm hot...

For the diy idea, a inline pump would work connected to the side bottom drain of the pool, half way up a shoe box Demand hot water heater single feed unit could use a H/D 24 hour timer for now the thermostat and sensors could be added later...(just an Idea)... Had a guy way back when in the...

If, you might want to take something like this to a 'PM' instead of grab and drag in public view, seems the members are not allowed to have an objective opinion, is that the case? Have had 5 pools (upgrades over the 13 years) and 2 two hot tubs (one regular and now a portable both where broken...

Ok, back up for a minute from your keyboard, here or there .... What is your objective as a moderator when a member just mentions that a operative temperature for chemicals in different water temperatures Is something to pay attention to causes you to responded like that this? Using them, and...

Re: Bestway (Intex?) AGP in garage, full year solution for heat wanted. Wasn't trying to derail anything rather adding to the discussion that if you actually look at what I use, one might assume like I did that one could be used instead of the other which if one actually reads the spec sheet...

Out of the box idea: One submersible thermometer sensor or a thermometer sensor pad under the pool. A thermostat A GPM water pump that will pump 25 to 30 gallons a minute. A 'endless hot water' heater set to 100...104 degrees... Just dawned in my head after seeing your pic's. Um, buy a...

Moderator Note: This was moved from here Bestway (Intex?) AGP in garage, full year solution for heat wanted. One thing I got put into a learning curve with was the differences the chemical operation temperatures are different in a pool then the chemicals that are used in a hot tub and the...

I have a TBI from a brain tumor and DDD in my spine that one hart attack and one stroke later the one relief I found is putting on my old water ski life jack and get in our pool and basically just lay back in the vest and 'wait for the boat'. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The problem your going to have will be a the non insulated sides of the pool, a room with an R- value wall and ceiling with a vapor barrier and a stand alone heat source to provide hot air for a heat exchange to heat the pool water is rather simple if feed from the bottom drain of the pool and...
