If my inflatable pool has a drain plug in the bottom can I attach a garden hose to drain water through?
If that will work then, yes. Most inflatables have no fittings that are compatible with a garden hose fitting. K
How do you drain your above ground pool with a garden hose?
Siphon it out. You can create a siphon by either sucking really hard on one end of the garden hose while the other end is under water, or the easier way, with 2 garden hoses as follows: -Get 2 garden hoses. Hook one to the spigot, put it in the pool and turn it on. set the other hose up with one end in the pool, and the other wherever you want to drain the water to. -Hold the ends of the 2 hoses that are in the pool, together with your hands, so the spigot water runs through the 2nd hose. Pull them apart, and you will feel the suction pulling the water out of your pool through the empty hose. -Take the hose that is connected to the spigot, out of your pool, and turn the spigot off. -Make sure the other garden hose does not fall out of the pool, or you will lose suction and have to start all over again! -When you get towards the bottom, you will have to physically hold the hose and move it around to get the water out without losing suction. You have to have the end of the hose that the water is running out of below the level of the bottom of the pool. You can do it with on.y one hose. Put one end of the hose in the pool and connect the other end to the faucet and turn it on until the air is forced from the hose. If the faucet is below the pool just disconnect the hose and lay it on the ground. You can move it around as long as the end of the hos estays below the top of the water. If the faucet is above the water level have someone put thier finger over the end of the hose in the pool while you move the end of the hose to a spot below the bottomof the pool.
How can i pump out a large inflatable pool and drain through garden hose away from area?
Syphon - ensure the bottom of the pipe is lower than the top, suck the water through and it will keep flowing. A standard 3/4" hose will take a LONG time to drain a large pool, but you can use multiple hoses...

How do you drain an easy set pool below the drain valve cap using a garden hose?
I used a wet vacuum (shop vac) to suck out the rest of the water. It took awhile (numerous 10 gallon canisters worth) but it also vacuumed up the debris so the pool was nice and clean when done.
How do you completely empty an inground pool?
My yard slopes a little bit. I take a garden hose or lately, my vacuum hose and run water in from the outside end until the hose is completely full. I drain it to the lowest part of my yard. You can stop running water in when no more bubbles come out into the pool. I secure a heavy wrench onto the pool end of the hose to keep it underwater. This will drain the majority of the pool. Then I have a small fish pond pump that I use for the rest of the water. This is very slow, I imagine if you have a pump to remove water from a cover, it would work as well. Good luck.

Can you connect a garden hose to a inground swimming pool pump?
You can probably find the plumbing to step down to the right size but the pool pump will have more water flow then a garden hose can safely handle. Your going to ruin either the pump or yourself.
How do I drain the remaining 7 inches of water left in my easy set pool since I already drained it to the drain valve plug level using a garden hose?
You could always use a garden hose to siphon it down to less than an inch. Just fill the hose with water, put your thumb over the end and a friend do the same to the other end. Then you place your end in the pool. Have your friend go to a spot lower than you and lay the hose down. Then you should both remove your thumbs. The water will immediately begin to flow and will do so until the end in the pool sucks air. The remaining less than an inch can be removed with a shop vac used in wet mode. Hope this helps.
