Hello everybody!
I am attempting to drain my 15' Intex AGP. I am having to try and use my filter pump to accomplish this because the cheap plastic drain fitting I am supposed to attach my garden hose to, broke.
I have successfully drained almost half using a 100' backwash hose attached to the bottom outlet of the pump and a plastic pool hose weighed down to the bottom of the pool. However, I go outside to find the pump is no longer sucking any water. I inspected the hoses and fittings and can't find any air leaks. It seems I can't keep the hose primed and/or the pump is pumping out faster then whats coming in.
Any suggestions?
