I have the same problem with no pressure. Have an above ground pool with a Hayward pump and DE filter. We took the filter apart and cleaned it, the pressure was great for a few days, now nothing again. Took each hose connection apart and the water flows through with no problem, but there is no pressure when everything is connected again.

Hi i am a first time pool owner and have a Hayward S-166T Sand filter, my question is this. We want to move the filter about 10-12′ away from our pool, for convience purposes, and was told that Flex PVC would be the best way to go, what else do i need besides the flex pvc itself and is this ok to do? Thanks

Hi Greg,

If your using a Hayward Powerflo pump you can go at least 50′ feet, You can also hard pipe it with PVC.

Let me know if you have any other questions,

I need to move the filter system on my above ground pool……How long can the hose to the fliter and return water hose be? Does it matter as long as they are below water level?

I am wanting to hard plumb my hayward filter. I’m tired of having to replace hoses every year. Do you have any guidance or photos on to do that? I have a 24′ above ground pool.

Hi Ray,

Is your Hayward CL200 piped in with union fittings or is it piped in with fittings,

Please let me know either way and I can help you further,

Hi Pierre,

The reason you have any coming from the return jets is because the pump is sucking air from the suction side and then pumping the air into the pool. You should check all connections, o-rings and seals on the pump side. If you can get the pump “air free” the bubbles will stop at poolside,

Please let me know if you have any more questions,
