An actuator can electrically open or close valves, in my case I want to use on a 2 way valve, 1 inlet and 1 outlet, i.e a normal valve. There are only certain valves that accept actuators. Most solar system setups use a 3-way valve(1 inlet and 2 outlets). 1 outlet to the pool return and the...

bobnanny I run 4 2X20 sunheaters in parallel with a 1 HP 2 speed pump. My heaters have a separate return that goes over the top and heaters are on the ground. I use 2 ball valves to help control rate, one full open to heaters and the normal return to the pool 7/8 open. This gives me optimal...

Welcome Alli, Intex has your pool listed as 6423 gallons, with 18' diameter pool puts you around 40"/3.3 ft of water in your pool.

rpgman lol, that is the identical I just bought. with 2 speed for my 18' pool.

rpgman, How come you didn't get a 1 Hp MOTOR with your pump?

jcw74801 The Intex "A" filter that comes with the 1500 GPH pump is about 5 Sq. ft. and does not do a very good job of sealing in the lower part of the filter housing. I ran across the same problem with not filtering the dirt where I live. I have made several upgrades and it has reduced my...

aswetich, You didn't specify wether you tested voltage with the motor on so for the sake of this post I will assume you didn't. It is just important for that voltage to stay there once the motor is up to speed. If you have access to an amp meter you could check to see if the amps are near the...

Rangeball, I bought this one today but it is a 1 HP. This was the only 2 speed for the Matrix pump configuration. List here for $229 but I know you were looking for a 3/4 HP. I saw the same model listed for $560 elsewhere. I couldn't find all the particulars on the motor to do an energy...

With both valves close on pool, open suction valve first, then open the small knob on top of filter and let the air out until you get water. Once that is done open the discharge valve on the pump then turn on pump. Once pump is primed you shouldn't have to do it again unless you service your...

Try running without a filter to see if its plugged and without the skimmer connected also. And are you bleeding the air off the top of the filter each time after you change filter or remove hoses before starting the pump? Looks like a classic no water flow overheat the pump trip out then...

The 1500 GPH model 635 has a debris screen at the suction of the pump, make sure it is clean if it is installed. This was originally supposed to be used if the skimmer attachment was not used. Last year there was a notice on their web site about it. Apparently a lot of complaints about it...

1 one week after setting up my first pool I got my first case of algae bloom. Once I got the algae killed I was having problems getting my factory pump Model 635(1500GPM) to filter out the algae. Rotating with 3 filters every 8 hours and spraying them clean I was not making much headway on my...

I purchased the combo pump/generator not long after getting our pool mid-summer last year. After learning from post at the Pool Forum I decided to go with a bigger pump/filter unit also, so cost of generator and pump upgrade was cheaper with the combo versus buying them individually. Had I...
