Pool / Spa Pump

E&OE

Set-Up and Operation

To achieve better pump self-priming, install the pump

below

the water level of the pool. • It is

recommended that Teflon tape is used on all threads and plumbing. • It is recommended to

have the pump and any pool plumbing installed by a suitably qualified person.

•

If the pump is located below water level, isolation valves must be installed on both the suction and return

plumbing to prevent back flow of pool water during pump servicing.

•

Mount the pump on a solid, flat and level surface that will not vibrate. To further reduce vibration, bolt the

pump to the surface or place a rubber mat between the surface and pump.

•

Protect the pump from the elements. It is recommended to install the pump in a weather-proof enclosure.

•

Proper ventilation is required for the pump to operate normally. The motor generates heat that must

dissipate through adequate ventilation. A minimum 150mm (6") clearance at the rear of the pump is

recommended to ensure adequate ventilation and accessibility for the motor.

•

The pump may feature a pressure overload sensor that will automatically stop the pump if the pressure

is too much (for example, if the attached filter is blocked).

•

The pump must be turned off at the mains electrical supply to fully shut down. Ensure the power switch

to the pump is easily accessible.

•

Be aware of water draining from the pump (for example, when performing maintenance) and ensure that

the pump is located where water can easily drain away, and is clear of electrical items or objects that

may be damaged by water.

•

Install pump plumbing using suitable rigid tubing and joint adhesive. Do not use flexible tube as this can

collapse under suction created by the pump. The following image shows a typical, simple pool pump

(yellow) and filter arrangement. The image shows the pump inlet plumbing from the pool skimmer box,

then from pump outlet to filter inlet, then from the filter outlet back to the pool.

Priming the Pump

Priming is generally required after initial set-up, or after maintenance, where the pump or plumbing

has been drained. Once the pump has been used and the plumbing system is free of any air,

manual priming of the pump should not be required.

1. Once the plumbing and pump have been installed, check that the pump drain plug is correctly installed,

then remove (rotate left) the clear lid from the top of the pump.

2. Fill the pump with pool water. If the pump is installed below water level, it should fill through gravity.
3. Ensure that the lid and any seals are totally clean and free of any particles, then re-install the lid and

firmly tighten (rotate right) by hand. It is recommended to lubricate any seals with suitable lubricant.

4. Check for any leaks and repair them before switching the pump ON.
