Hi All, I've joined up as I have just bought a house with a pool but am having some problems with it... Hopefully as I get more experience with my pool, I can offer solutions to you all rather than just questions...
Overall question: I am looking for a pump that would allow me to connect my vacuum to it and then pump the water to waste.
Equipment background: I have a desjoyaux type of pool (http://www.desjoyaux.eu) which doesn't use a sand filter but a felt bag next to the pool and then the water is filtered straight back into the pool. The problem is that it doesn't have a pump to waste option. When you want to empty the pool I have an external pump that I use - but it is not one that I can connect my vacuum to...
Water issue trying to solve: I have a lot of sediment in my pool that I can't get rid of through filtration. When the water settles there is a layer of heavy sediment which I want to get rid of. If I can find a way of pumping out the base layer of water and sediment with my vacuum then I think I can avoid having to completely empty my pool and do an expensive refill.
Rewards for you helping: Nothing tangible, just the knowledge you helped a random person in the world enjoy their pool..... and maybe some kind of smiley.
Thanks!
